Top HG shooters will be automatic and perfect once they cross into the opponents courtyard with a boulder... a fairly quick play... Either Midline acquire+ cross+HG Or SP acquire + Low Bar + HG OR Coutyard acquire + HG if other bot deleivers.

That is faster slightly than crossing different defenses on average.

TO destroy a defense and be on right side (opponents courtyard) at 20 second endgame it FOUR crossings per defense.
TO shoot a HG its One acquire action, One cross and One shot and if delivered Two actions OR worst case ...Cross back + acquire + cross + shoot = 4 actions

Time wise (each action)...
Cross=Cross
HG Shot << Cross
Acquire <= Cross


Time wise self contained scoring (HG versus Defense destroy) .... THREE actions < Four Actions
