Blocking a shot in autonomous can be much more influential than the initial rejection of the 10 or 20 points. After autonomous, the team must score the ball that was blocked in order to begin their cycles.
I would safely assume that there will be at least as many 2 ball autos as there were multi disk autos last year. Or at least close to that number. And yes blocking a shot is very powerful. That's why I would doubt some teams capable of doing this haven't thought about or considered it.
