I could definitely see an alliance of 469 - 67 - 33 - 2337

My logic is that I believe 469 is going to be ranked very high because they are: the highest scoring team, most adaptable team (it doesn't matter who you are, 469 will compliment your robot perfectly), and have good 5/7 disk autonomous modes. 67 is a great first pick because they are one of the few 50 point dumpers (which is the one thing 469 can't do, unless they suprise us) and also are one of the best fcs when undefended. 33 is just there for the 7 disk autonomous and good floor sweeping in teleop. And 2337 makes a good backup as versatile defender/floor pickup

how bout a 1625, 3928, and 148 alliance

Re: 2013 Indiana Robotics Invitational-Holy Cow
 

I wish we could see that, but any competent scouts will make sure that this alliance doesn't happen. The first 3 robots listed are all top 15 easily in my opinion, and 2337 isn't a slouch that should fall to the very last pick of the alliance selections. This would be an outstanding alliance though, they could break 250 points consistently.

Re: 2013 Indiana Robotics Invitational-Holy Cow
 

Have none or two alliance captains with an odd plan, mix in teams doing much better/worse than season based on drivers, and the craziness of drafting at IRI w/ so many good teams and it's totally plausible for something like this to happen.

EDIT: Don't forget no serpentine draft, which helps an alliance like above form in the higher seeds.

Re: 2013 Indiana Robotics Invitational-Holy Cow
 

67 often uses new drivers at IRI (or so I hear). I could see them falling to the second round. 33- not so much. But you never know at IRI.

Oh I bet Aren would love that lol... I can't wait to see what Aren does when we (1625, 3928, 148) play each other...
*pictures Aren running back and forth between teams cheering* hahaha

Re: 2013 Indiana Robotics Invitational-Holy Cow
 

I didn't but when you get to those it just get too dificult

Re: 2013 Indiana Robotics Invitational-Holy Cow
 

curious where you got that picture, I don't really cheer that much

Re: 2013 Indiana Robotics Invitational-Holy Cow
 

heh... it's IRI and 3 of your favorite teams are gonna be there lol

and by cheer I meant a dull "yea" cheer.

Re: 2013 Indiana Robotics Invitational-Holy Cow
 

I think everyone has an idea in mind for there dream alliance for me mine would be 1114,71,1334 or 1114,71,1640 would have the possibility to put up big in end game

Re: 2013 Indiana Robotics Invitational-Holy Cow
 

I think 1114-1334-254 would be better. Or 1114-254-67. 90 points of climb, 30 points of dump, 7 discs in auto, FCS and floor pickup.

EDIT: Right, 254 and 1986, the two climbers with 7-disc auto aren't going. Scratch that.
