I think they will definitely ask both 1114/2056 before moving on, just by reflex. (Because otherwise ranking first was worthless).

There are a lot of great teams, which is why elims was always going to be interesting whether 1114 was first or not. 2056 have a stinger-like thing, and I do think 3161 will also ask one/both because it's too big a risk not too, but I would have fancied another one of these potential alliances to take on a 1114/2056 alliance, especially if they could triple balance.
Just to re-iterate, what happened in the last match does not clearly violate any FIRST value, and 3161 earned their first place by co-oping in every single match, but personally it would leave a bad taste in my mouth if our team had refused to co-op.
3161 and 1114 together. Ooh interesting.
