They may have used sideways pushing abilities while in contact with 868 that I could just not see. Could someone clarify if 2040 used any attributes unique to mec's to their advantage here?

Don't recall anything unique when I looked at it before. Agree that a good 6wd or 8wd would likely accomplish the same task. Just an example of a match that challenged my view of mecanum being poor at defense.
