Advantages
While this aug doesn't have any direct damage applications, (at least in the premade maps), it does offer some interesting map control options. Few people take this aug, so if you are the only player who has it, you can move those large crates and no one else will be able to do anything about it. This doesn't sound terribly useful until you realize that you can use those large crates to strategically block off small passages or elevators, and thus funnel your opponents wherever you want them. Blocking doorways, air vents, and elevator exits can be extremely amusing.
Disadvantages
The only real disadvantage is that the usefulness of this aug is directly tied to which map you are on, and if there are any large crates for you to move.
Opposing
The simplest way to oppose this aug is to take it yourself. That or simply go way around and realize that you are being channeled to where your opponent wants you. The speed aug will often also allow you to jump over crates that your opponent has moved.
