Re: 2008 Greater Toronto Regional!

I think if you get your weakest bot to trap one of the opposing team's balls, then you've reduced their scoring ability by approximately 50% while reducing yours by a max of 33% (assuming your third bot produces 1/3rd of your points, which is unlikely). Even if the opposing team's more powerful hurdler takes over their 2nd ball, you've still probably hurt their scoring rate more than you've hurt yours.

The main problem in a match vs 1114/2056/???? is that they will probably score 5 + 3 + 2 lines and 2 balls in hybrid (56 points!), so even if you can shut down their in-game scoring, you're probably going to have a LONG way to catch up.
