This strategy seems hard to defend against.

While I agree with you, I can't help but feel like it's relying a bit too much on autonomous. Having a defender in the close zone at least makes it harder to score, even if they do allow balls though. Robots who are in the mid-field will have to have to be able to boast the ability to transport balls to their scoring zone quickly and effectively in order to keep the edge on their side. Not only that, but they also have to keep balls away from the other mid player. Having a defender bot takes a way a little bit of that pressure of the mid-fielder; yes they have to get balls over the bump, but at least this way it's a little harder for the other to score.
