Edit:: I did like 4334 and their bot this year, and I am not saying anything against them. Just become part of the regular alliance and they can join the "eh team" too.

I see why people are excluding 4334 from the Eh Team. I just disagree with it. In my mind, the Eh Team disbanded after Einstein. I seriously doubt that the alliance could reform in future championships (or even regionals: good luck grabbing 4334 in the second round now!) or if they did that it would be as magical and dominant as it was on Archimedes.
I guess what I was saying is that without 4334 there would be no Eh Team. I'm sure all the current members of 1114+2056 would agree. Sure, the two of them are great at winning together, arguably being the greatest partnership in FIRST history, but I'd bet dollars to donuts that the number 2 alliance would not have won without 4334. As great as 2056 and 1114 are, they're just two teams, and it takes three to win it (case in point: Archimedes 2009).
That's what the Eh Team is. Not 1114. Not 2056. Not 4334. The Eh Team is magic. Everyone in Canada and beyond felt it when the Eh Team was on the field. I doubt any other alliance could compare. It's the culmination of hundreds of factors that together create a dream team. It's an alliance you wait literally for years to be a part of.
