Your "pong blocker" can only block 38.9% of the opponents scoring area at any given time. Just food for thought.
Assuming each robot is two feet long, you dont have to cover the areas at the end, so its actually 9/18, which if 50%.

If you have two properly made pong blockers on an alliance, thats 100%.

And we have this year's game breaker!
