Defense

What is Defense?
Defense is the second category for measuring players stats. Defense is mainly how well you can well you can prevent others from stealing the ball from you. Having a longer possession of the ball will raise your defensive stat but lower your opportunities for a strong attack stat. It is not against the rules of POG Ball to charge your opponent while in possession of the ball and will actually raise your Attack, Defense, and even Stamina if you can manage to pull off such a move.

How is it measured?
4.5-5: Impregnable defense, Can defend against 2 people at once with mid-low difficulty. Likely has high stamina/evasion as well.

3.5-4: Good defense, May be able to defend against 2 players for limited amounts of time and may even have low difficulty against a single player.

3: Decent Defense, will be dealt with easily by top tiers but can defend against strong single players if they play smarter.

2-2.5: Low Defense, Low possession of ball and can't defend well enough to have it long enough. These players will typically use speed and evasion to deal with heavy attackers.

0.5-1.5: Can be blitzed by any player and lacks the skill to protect the ball from any player.
