This assumes you have nothing better to do with your ball, and that you can outfeed fast enough to get both balls clear of the infeed path. Still, second picks often have nothing better to do with their ball, and it'd be an easy routine to write. Oh. Bonus points if you steal the first ball, and then shoot it at the dropped ball to turn a 2-ball auto into a 0-ball auto.:cool:

Definitely thought of this but be careful about the definition of launching.

D. “launching” (shooting BOULDERS into the air, kicking across the
floor, or throwing in a forceful way)

G39 ROBOTS are prohibited from launching BOULDERS unless they are in contact with the opponent’s
TOWER or carpet in the opponent’s COURTYARD, and not in contact with any other carpet.
Violation: TECH FOUL per BOULDER

That's one of those frustratingly vague rules the gdc put out this year. If we were doing this, we'd be reversing our intake to do this. We'd be rolling a ball, but I have to assume rolling a ball fast enough would eventually be considered launching. It's just that you don't know how fast that is.

I only got a chance to watch some of the elimination matches, but was this successful or ran last weekend?

It was not attempted at CVR.

Re: 1678 Two Ball Auto

They said up front to me in the pits no two-ball auto in CVR as the video was in a controlled setting on marks setting...does not matter 1 ball auto and the 100% scale and literally unblock-able shots was enough..them and 254 were amazing to behold they obviously set the high bar at 210.

So was the rookie team Uni-Rex when not broken , the combo of their swerve with 75MPH High goal laser with deadly accuracy was freaking amazing. So was 973 with their flashlight aim perfection HG shots. Also 1323, 701 and 1671 too. And many others.

For those of you who didn't catch it on GameSense, here's the unedited version:

We didn't run it at CVR because our one ball auto was much more consistent, but we're hoping to dial in the two ball by sac.
