Why only one ball?

Precisely. Lets say we had 3 balls in play. If all 3 robots could score, that's WAY faster than trying to get a 2 assist truss cycle, and you get the same points. Cycles and speed of them will be important. I'm expecting minimum 3 2-assist cycles for a decent alliance, and I wouldn't be surprised to see upwards of 4 or 5 2-assist cycles for a very good alliance (I would put a 3-assist truss catch cycle at 3-per-game for a very good alliance)
