Picking the defenses will also figure into the traffic flow; by placing a defense next to the low bar which is hard/slow for the opposing alliance, traffic flow will get congested. By picking a relatively easy one there, it will relieve traffic flow through the neutral zone for both alliances unless one of the alliance goes to actively defending.

Wow, never thought of that. That's a good thing to keep in mind going into the competition.

[EDIT]: Do we get to choose the positioning of the 3 chosen defenses though? I thought they get placed in the order they are chosen (i.e. If defense type "D" is the first to be chosen, it will be placed to the right of the low bar.) I may well be wrong though.
