I think attacking is the hardest because you have to get by them dang sweepers and then you can attack the def without killing you other attacking teammates.

I would say sweeping is somewhat hard but to me it just takes some energy.

Center is one of the easiest positions unless ur playing against Liz Woned Titan or Gonzap.

Center.. it seems like attacking and sweeping becomes easier with some experience, but as center you depend on your own wings, the enemy center & his wings. Every round is different, so it can be a great challenge sometimes.

in my opinion the hardest position varies - it's always the player with the worst neighbours.

I agree with Word. Depends on who your playing.

In general though, I'd say center.

I didn't vote because I can't decide. But at the time of this post, all positions have been voted equally. That's amazing. You could say this is a sign of a highly developed, well-balanced game. :)

To use a cliché, sweeping is easiest to learn, hardest to master.

I would say it's a sign of a bad question.

Firstly, positions out of context of a specific strategy are meaningless. Defending with two sweepers in front of you is completely different than defending with none. Playing center on a team that splits earlier is different than playing center on a team that splits late.
