Lower ranked captains were in a good position to create strong alliances, but failed to do so. Good teams are rarely left for the 1st and 2nd alliances, however at SVR, good teams, were widely available.
One reason, people focused on minibots. Well at SVR it was autonomous that won the finals not minibots.

I so wish I could have been there, MTR would have crushed alliance selections; the competitions we have been at have been pretty good for selections. When I said nothing is wrong I probably exaggerated a bit, because I have noticed a few lower teams getting picked at regionals/districts , but they were raked low on our data. As far as how high those teams ranked according to FIRST I have no idea what it was.
Also does anyone have video from SVR? I would like to take a look at it.
