I agree, in past years most of the "defensive" robots were ones that were broken in some way and in the final matches no alliance in the regonal i was at choose a "defensive" robot as an alliance partner.

However, the best alliances were made up of 3 scoring robots, but two of which were obviously able to rack up better points, and then the third would defend not by pinning the enemy, but by using its scoring mechanism to get balls downrange and away from the enemy.

I imagine that this game will be very similar
