The point to the Poofs is that you have to guard them 100% effectively, 100% of the match. If you give them three seconds pointed more-or-less at the goal, they will have scored 25 or 30 points. Their rate of fire is mind-boggling -- the best I've seen in the Webcasts or live. Their other claim to fame is lizard quickness and an extremely maneuverable chassis. One defender mistake and they are g-o-n-e. (Disclaimer -- I haven't seen some of the other 'bots mentioned in this thread.) (Another disclaimer -- I watched 753 do an awesome job guarding the Poofs at PNW -- so the Poofs spun around and dumped 20 points, plus or minus, in a low goal. They can hurt you in multiple ways.)
