As they are for us...
I feel for any alliance, sending a defensive between the key and the fender is going to be taking a huge risk. There will be teams who do it extremely well, as there always is. However, the drivers of that defensive robot will need to be on their toes and very aware of where they are. We will see many teams parking just on the edge of the key. Defensive teams will have a 3+ foot radius around the key to be aware of at all times. The best defense will be teams who can clear the other alliance's zone of rebounds/stray balls.
