Considering their alliance scored over 110 points EVERY round in the eliminations at the Detroit regional, I think it only lowered the scores for their opposing alliance. This is one of the best defensive/offensive strategies - reduce the number of tubes available for your opponents to score, and increase the number your team can score.
