Re: Over the bump or under the tower

Bump is a better idea because it is faster to get across since you don't need to line up with the tunnel, but it's also riskier. Also, I doubt there will be a problem with getting blocked in the tunnel. It would take too much effort for an opponent to see that you are trying to go under the tunnel, then block you. Also, that robot won't be doing anything other than just sitting there and blocking, while you can do other things while you are being blocked such as scoring.
