Re: I actually enjoy watching Breakaway

I have yet to see this game in person yet, but I think I like it.

One thing that is a strength of the game is that the 3rd alliance partner has a role in scoring. In the last two years, the 3rd robot was usually not invovled in scoring, as they were relegated to doing laps or trying not to be scored on. At KC, the two final alliances (and top two seeds) had the 23rd and 24th pick in the front zone actually scoring. It was a refreshing change to see the top pick (525) and 2nd alliance captain (1625) in the far zone playing defense. Maybe it will change but so far it seem that the 3rd robot isn't just along for the ride.
