Re: Is Defense key to this game?

I'd beg to differ. Look here at this semi-final finish. That's red on the left with 60 bonus bots on top, and 8 ringers in a row on the rack, with none from blue. Score: 316 to 0. 2 great offense bots (175 & 501) and 1 strong defender (1824) providing 60 bonus points possible almost every time.
Well the fact that the opposing alliance has no ringers up shows that they must not have been that much of a threat. I know it was a semi-final match, but the red alliance had to leave the rack open at some point to get on the ramp. Wouldn't that give the other alliance a chance to put on some ringers or some spoilers. I'm just questioning the abilities of the blue alliance.
