Defense will be key in this years game... just like in any game before it.

Granted defence will be a key part of this game (in my mind, anyways) I dont think you can do that. There's more than one way to get by a defensive bot, and unless your 12" drive base has a really nice drive system (holonomic or mechanum), people can outmenouver you with a more mobile one. I'm just saying that as important as defense is, I think it can be beaten.
I'm not saying a defensive bot will be useless, I'm saying that they will not be able to shut a good scorer down 100%, maybe 50% speaking conservatively.
