This just made me remember a "God Bot" strategy I was talking about a few days ago.
1. Build a robot with a intake that was tall enough and wide enough to cover the whole feeder station opening.
2. Have your alliance make 7+ shots in hybrid mode. These all have to go in; if they don't additional balls have to be shot in during Tele-Op.
3. Immediately park your robot in front of the opposing alliance's feeder station.
4. Continuously shoot 3 pointers.
Because of the 6 ball holding limit; the Inbounders would have to throw at least 1 ball into your robot, since they can't throw it any where else. Once you score that ball they have to throw another one into your robot. Thus creating a constant scoring machine, much like the one 469 had in Breakaway.
In a regular season event this strategy only works until the opposing alliance comes to your side of the field and hits you; as you are in their lane. However, if IRI announces that they are removing lanes, I'm going to force my team to redesign our robot

Great idea, although I'd prefer an additional 1 point.
