Really dumb question:

So you're not trying to win your qualification rounds?

I see where you're coming from--trust me, a drawbridge landing in position 2 is one of my least favorite things about this game, when it happens--but for a game that's seeded based on RPs, and 2 RPs are available from winning the match while only 1 is available from breaching defenses, you should really think seriously about winning vs. visibility. Is it going to be easier to win--and thereby collect more RPs--with better visibility, or if your opponents are stymied by one of the toughest defenses in the game, and the inability to see behind it easily?
