Which defender is attempting this block? I assume the center guy is busy doing a 7 shot autonomous, and not available for the block. That means one of the wing guys needs to attempt it after getting their 3 shots off. Sounds like a nearly equal race to me. I bet 987 wins that race against most bots.

Of course if the center guy is not doing the 7 then even if they block the center line they are still down quite a bit after auto.
