Rush for the ball whilst spinning up, and try to punt the ball past the blocker into the goal. Try to line up a shot, disregard other bots being around. If one's got the ball, give chase and try to steal the goal. Keep fairly near to the goal if we don't get the ball in the initial clash, and just focus on goal stealing.

Once it's down to a 1v1 (if we get that far), play aggressive, spin up quick and try to punt around the ball (or opponents in the way), aiming for a potshot. Try to keep it quick, before something breaks.

Best of luck to the others.

The Gourmet's going to get to the ball as fast as it can, scoop it up in its lifter, raise the lifter a bit to keep the ball in there, and drive to the goal and dump the ball in (avoiding the goalie of course.) Angel's fast but it doesn't have a very good way to control the ball: it might even be tall enough to drive over it. Honeycomb doesn't have any way to control the ball, and Mind in a Program is slow enough that I might be able to grab the ball and run off with it before it gets to the scene. If someone else does get the ball, I'll get on them, try to tip them over, and grab the ball for myself.

Good luck all!
