Re: Defensive Strategies

Here's my idea; have your backbot harvest balls until it's full. Then switch the backbot with another alliance bot. Repeat. Then, at the beginning of offence, rush the opponents goal and chutes. Even if they block two of your robots from scoring at all, you're going to make 10-30 points (assuming your robot holds 10) right off the bat. This strategy also has the advantage of keeping balls away from your opponents (seeing as you don't even have to rotate your backbot to collect balls; it would just be easier to collect them (and guard the opponents) by rotating backbots).
