Re: Defense? Spy Bots?

Something to consider, in 2013 most pool noodle blockers were not robots that were designed with defense in mind. They were just robots that realized they could effect the score differential in a match much more by blocking a full court shooter than by attempting to climb or shoot/run Frisbees themselves.

I think a interesting and very related question will be; which way will robots be able to help their alliance's score differential the most? If some of the best shooters in a competition can be blocked, you will probably see some mid to low level robots repeat history as a vital piece of a winning alliance.

The answer will depend on what type of meta game emerges.
