Re: How do you scout Defense?

I'll remember 2612 Jack, at least until I get to Atlanta and a new set of finals! You were in my corner most of the time scoring goals.

But as to the question, if you watch 217 play defense, and not just against 469, then you have the characteristics, as has been stated. They are extremely tough, low CG, quick back and forth, and top it off by being able to grab a ball and fire it out of the zone. And of course good driving and coaching (which without, the bot would be far less effective).

Of course a team and bot like this will likely never be second pick but I think it proved to be a wise choice to have a strong offensive team playing defense in the several occasions they did.
