I'm thinking the super-elite teams will probably be able to do 4-5 cycles unassisted with no defense on them. We'll see if that estimate changes as the build season progresses.

After you truss toss it, it will be right in front of you, just like overdrive, and like overdrive, you have to return to the other end of the field to score again. There's an extra ball acquisition per cycle, but it doesn't seem unreasonable that 6 will be possible by the elite. Remember, 2008 was 6 years ago. All of those elite teams have learned a lot in the intervening time about how to build better robots too.
