We would simply be able to extend our arm that we hang with because it can extend at an angle, which would therefore allow us to block balls above them and deflect the balls towards our alliances offensive zone.

I suppose you know how 469 works then? I suppose you also know the rules too?
Extending beyond the size limits is NOT a 1 point penalty it is a yellow card. 469 gets away with it because you are allowed to extend when in contact with your own tower. Additionally, 469 gets the ball nearly immediately off the return. The only way for you to touch the ball before them would be to grab near the ball return chute. A red card... So, you are still the "only one who can beat 469" eh? Sounds like a good way of getting DQ'd to me.

I said effective. 2791 had a record of 15-12-5. They averaged 4.4 goals per match per alliance.They also did not ever make it to the finals. Finally, it does not look like they can hang. 2949 pwnage had a record of 18-8-5, we averaged 6.7 goals per match per alliance, made it all the way to the finals while facing harder opponents then that of 2791, and also can hang.

Or, how to use a dictionary... Effective does not mean best. You may have sucked more but that does not mean you were the ONLY effective person with a vacuum.
