: How does the strategy differ once you are in the finals? In the past, the least confusing objective has always been to get ahead 1 to 0, then hunker down and play defense. How ya going to do that now?

At firts glance of the field set-up for elimination matches,it seems that all you will see is a struggle for the 2x rack position. But then you quickly realize that 2 x zero is still zero. You need to protect your ramp to make sure it is not stripped of your balls already in their scoring positions. 2 things make this very difficult: 1) the opponents robots start right next to your ramps 2) the balls are sitting up in the holes (not like last year) and can easily be knocked out.

A best strategy is not obvious. As coach Krussell said, this is diabolical!
