Re: week 1 questions

Well. I guess region affects how teams play.

There weren't any dominant launchers at GSR. What really played a role in how well you could score was how easily you could pick up the ball.

I don't think the actual launching aspect makes much difference in hurdling performance of launcher vs arm/lift. I think it is how quickly you can start moving after hurdling. Most teams have to stop, wait a little bit to get their arms/lifts low enough to just drive under the bar, launchers are already low enough. That is the advantage.
