    The unexciting part is that the obvious best strategy would be to ignore the regular part of quidditch and just focus entirely on helping their seeker get the snitch and shutting down the opposing seeker.

      1 goal is 10 points

      1 snitch is 150 points

      You’re going to leave your goals unguarded? No, you’ll have a goalie.

      You’re going to let the other beaters just bash bludgers at your team? No, you’ll have your own beaters.

      Best you could do is pull your chasers to help catch the snitch.

      You’ll give up your entire offense and defense

      So can my 3 chasers score 15 times against your goalie trying to guard 3 rings by themselves before your 4 seakers can catch a snitch. My seeker could even catch the snitch or just play snitch D.

      I’d put my money on the 3 chasers

      Best strategy would be to have 4 chasers and rotate one out every once in a while to search for the snitch. But being able to score 10 points going 4v3 would be powerful

      Iirc you can’t interfere with the seekers, plus if you don’t defend and play, the other team just scores more than 150 points and wins when your team gets the snitch.
