Re: Defense at Week 1 Regionals?

Personally I think that pinning the ball up against the wall for long periods of time actually hurts your alliance more than it helps them. Think about it, its now a 3 vs. 2 and at some point you can't help your alliance anymore.

Honestly, two of the best defenses that I saw actually weren't defenses; Teams that had great communication were able to shut down opposing alliances like nobody's business. Also teams that consistently had control of a trackball for most of a match seemed kind of hard to defend against.
