Re: Is Defense key to this game?

Is defense Important? Yes! Will a strong defensive bot be picked high? Yes! Is it more important than having two-three strong scorers? NO!!

The defensive robot will be helpful and will often be an integral member of most alliances, but I believe that having two strong scorers greatly reduces the effect of a defensive robot. Scoring on the rack is the same as playing defense in this game, because it shuts down scoring areas and limits the points that teams can score.

The key to this game is executing a strategy that will help maximize scoring and utilize each alliance member's strengths to win.
