This type of annoying defensive bot, built well enough, could throw off anyone trying to score from anywhere not in the previously mentioned safe zones. Consider the box on wheels to be useful if those that can't get their shooters to work see the opportunity.

I just realized a slight flaw with a defensive box bot strategy. You block your own driver's sight by playing defense...
On another note, however, a solid box bot could easily plant itself in front of the low goal and just sit there the whole match to prevent low goal scoring.
