C'mon all you defender robots, try and stop a good stacker ... if you can't shut them down completely (I mean 0 points), then you have already failed. I'm not talking about qualifying rounds. Those matches entirely depend on the random mix, but elimination round alliances will need three good stackers to win the Championship.

That statement depends on the matchup. Our robot was built for offense and only offense. We also discovered at UTC we could steal tetra's off certain types of robots and successfully make a match 2 vs 2 for scoreing. Our team can defend almost anybody well, but some teams obviously aren't worth our time because we may not be as successful or we could out score easily on offense, thats a judgment call our drive team and alliance would make.
I think offense is going to be key, and our team is going to play more offense than defense, but if we get matched against certain types of robots or teams we could prevent more points than we could score in some cases, we will shock some people with how effective our arm is. Just takes a lot of common sense when your decideing what to do and what your alliances teams can do as well.
