How Much Defense Can You Play?

Just a strategy, we aren't using it though

This only works if your alliance has the ability to floor pick up, otherwise it becomes a somewhat worthless endeavor. Which, for the most part, appears to be a particularly rare ability, only outmatched in rareness by a 30pt climber.

And also, clamp under what and push what? Is that in reference to a frisbee? If yes then I would say that that is an incredibly strange scenario, and one likely to get your robot as trapped under the pyramid as the frisbee you're defending is. You're putting yourself in the very middle of an otherwise untouchable structure.
