They are limited to 9 ringers (assuming they can't get by you(Odds are a good team of robots could get atleast a couple from you. But you are limited to 2 robots actively playing the game.

I am all for defensive strategies but unless you can block all 18 ringers you are better off defending the rack and stopping teams from scoring than you would be defending half the ringers. it is much easier to try to block a robot from doing the much more exactl manipulation required to score than it is to stop them from picking up one of 9 rings. 26 feet across the field is alot of space to defend.
