How important is it to be a good attacker? Can I get by if I don't have a strong enough attack?

Hi Esteban,

There are different styles that you can play apart from being a strong attacker.  This game is like Chess.  It is important to work out the strengths and weaknesses of your opponent and then exploit them.

There are very good players that play defensively or even as all rounders.
