2015 Dallas Regional
 
Dallas is week 1 and the competition is packed.

Dallas 2014 was the most intense competition in the history of the event.
Dallas 2015 is shaping up to be the most competitive event in Texas.

Will 148 continue their undefeated Dallas Regional streak ?

The seed order will strictly be determined by the random match scheduling*. How many times will the "top" teams (118, 148, 624, 1477, 2848 the list goes on) face each other? During these matches, who are the other members of those alliances (will one "top" team face 2 at once, or have under-performing teammates?). I personally think that** no team at Dallas will go undefeated. The field is very thoroughly stacked with many high level teams, and a very healthy amount of good, competitive teams that may hit a home run and take it.

*Well duh, but seriously, we have all been there.
**Barring some game-breaking strategy or loophole or something.

The number of times top teams face each other is irrelevant in this game...

Perhaps you meant the number of times they play with each other?

No win-loss this season so the times teams "play each other" means nothing. The amount of times "top teams" play together might affect it but a team still has to consistently score high to seed high.

Even the number of times they play together may not matter (as much) unless they have complimentary game strategies.

This regional is one of the ones I'm looking forward to following most this year. Of course it's because I know a lot of the teams much better than in other parts of the country and I'm biased, but playoffs sure look to be pretty competitive.

Alamo a few years back had the first triple balance in the country. What could Dallas be the first to do? RC+pool noodle on a stack of 6? Use all the human player totes? use all the landfill totes? Stack all the RCs (both alliances and the step)?
