A multi ball auto might help you capture the tower during quals but I'm not convinced that it secures a regional/championship win once teams can plan out defenses for it.

Teams cannot defend in Auto without reprogramming the spy bot and highly risk a foul impeding crossing. As for midline shenanigans that means that bot is not scoring either. Not likely I'm saying.

I really don't see the advantage to not Scoring in auto yourself and attempting to prevent team X from doing their multi ball auto the mid line rule and the not prevent crossing rule make that highly unlikely to succeed.

Plus the way defenses are laid out they are on opposite sides so main auto action is opposite.

I guess it could happen however that seems very unlikely. But who knows?
