Re: Defense at Week 1 Regionals?

Herding opponent's balls into corners, pinning opponent's balls against the vertical field elements (walls). Playing "keep away" slows hurdling and that's a good defensive strategy. As long as the defensive robot does not possess (support or capture) the opponent's ball, it's legal. It'll frustrate good shooting robots to no end...
