Defense?

They weren't too bad playing D, as I recall.

Perhaps that is some evidence you might consider changing your signature for.

I was thinking of changing it anyway--to a comparison of the paths rules questions follow.

hot team+469 or 51+a decent midfield robot
without a strong defensive robot, they will score 20 or even 30+ points
in finals, you need defense

I'm in agreement with the need for defense and the best way to do it is back and forth in front of the goals.......however......with 469 or 51 in place and circulating, defense against 2 robots in your zone is nearly impossible.
