Kudos on making this prototype!

However...

It's kind of ridiculous to say your shot is innovative yet not say how.

Additionally, your sample size of posted prototypes is very small.

I would rather encourage teams to look to for inspiration in the video I posted, since they can actually learn how 1717 pulled off such an amazing shot.

When you're posting claims of "fastest shot" or "super accurate", you have to be willing to take some "shots" yourself

Side note: some of those shots from 10ft range in your video hit the side of the goal. I'd encourage you guys to keep iterating and try to improve the accuracy of Asset 003
