I think you will find that there is a large difference between what a team does during their first match and their last match. The first couple of matches, teams are still working out the bugs. I have been burned in Alliance selection by not taking this into consideration enough. I had one team that on Friday could barely score. I took them off my list of teams to consider for Saturday's elimination round. Obviously they fixed something, because on Saturday they were unbeatable. They ended up being the 3 pick on the 8th seeded team, and they won the regional. I scout EVERY match and look for those kind of trends now.
