The second Battlecry @ WPI offseason was held at Worcester Polytechnic Institute on June 23, 2001. Each team played six qualifying matches for a total of 45. Instead of the usual Diabolical Dynamics game, a modified two-on-two version was played with a yellow alliance and a blue alliance, two balancing bridges, and the ability for each alliance to stop their own clock and disable their robots during a match. One robot from each alliance starts in front of the driver station wall, with a second robot starting on the other side of the bar and bridges. The yellow alliance played with both small and large yellow balls, with the blue alliance playing with large blue balls and small black balls. Points were scored by ball color and not which goal or bridge they were in contact with. In addition to the stretcher, alliances could substitute in a 2000-vintage "placebo" robot that would attempt to play the game as instructed by their alliance.
