Where is the "2 or 3 of the above" option?

It will change every match based on alliance partners and the current score.

[Barry Bonzack]

you left off guarding in front of the other teams home row to keep them from getting behind the line to elevate themselves. But I agree with James, strategy changes dependent on your alliance and your opponents.

I agree - obviously placing a spoiler to break a row of 8, or to complete a long row, would be much better than a 15 or even 30 point bonus. But if there are a lot of singletons about, then absolutely go for the lift.
Personally, I would like to have seen a bonus for number of robots in the home zone, with an increase for elevation.

I think that placing a spoiler will be a big thing for most of the teams near the end of the match. But then again it all depends on the situation of the match. I think....
If a team is wining and they are confident:
They will go for the bonus points and lift their alliance members up

If a team is lagging behind and every second counts:
They will try to take control of the spoilers and place them somewhere optimal for their alliance.

thats my 2cents, everyone has their own plan.

I think lifting two robots 12" when there isn't a row of 4 or more on the board is a great stategy and spoiling patterns of four or more is the only way to avoid losing by a great amount.

I completely agree with this. Even if your robot does one of those things, it depends more on what the rest of your partners can do and how the score / placement of rings are at that time.. It will be very interesting to see what happens!! I can't wait!!!!!!!

[Lil' Lavery]

You also forgot the remove spoiler option

[Zoheb N]

I think the last 30 seconds will be filled with raisin robots and spoiler action

Two robots in the air. 60 pt pwnage.

I'm pretty sure there are only 3 robots a team. One of the three has to be on the ground, and I highly doubt the other team is going to take an offsides penalty to give the other team 90 pts.

Well i guess if an alliance is going for the lifts...they will probly need more than 30 secs. because im guessing it will take some time and power to lift 2 robots.( plus its not like the robots will by some sort of "magic" be lifted up, in the last few secs of the game)
