Go to Post In 2012, we built our best machine ever. Some visitors to our pit were visibly disappointed to find that our machine was a pile of extruded aluminum and urethane belting, just cleverly arranged and programmed. - OZ_341 [more]

Why score from the near end if you can do it from the middle?
Get rid of the "middle man" and score.

Defense is being highly underestimated.
I played soccer for years. Its very different when its by yourself vs. an opposing team.
I absolutely agree with your statements. Those who control the mid-field will definitely dominate the game. In which case a robot that can control and fire from the mid-field with a 80%+ accuracy will definitely make it to the finals.

However, as you mentioned, a key defensive player in both the mid and far zone will also be a strong strategy. It will be interesting to see what Week 1 teaches us about the game.
