If you have two alliances, both capable of hitting all 6 preloaded balls in Hybrid (like I'm sure will happen quite often), then acquiring an extra 24 points (12 from the coop, 12 from the alliance) seems like it would be huge. You start out teleoperated with your opponents in a 24 point hole that they have to climb out of. A very nice advantage to start with.
I'd like to hear your reasoning behind saying Hybrid will be less important. I definitely find it to be an interesting statement.

I can/will expand on this later but for now...
Alliance A: gets the Co-op bridge balls
Alliance B: doesnt get alliance bridge balls
1. You said that there would be a 24 point difference. But who said that alliance B doesnt get the 2 balls from their allaince bridge and scores those for 12 points. the the differnece is only a MAX of 12 points.
2. When Alliance A scores their 2 extra balls, then Allaince B (human players) has control of those balls and Hopefully delivers those balls to their side of the field. Helping them score more. Assuming the score is tied and they score those balls the score will be 6 point difference now for Alliance A.
At this point Aliance B only is losing by 6. Easy enough to come back from. Then it comes down to the remaining Teleop and the Bridge Points.
Notice that most of this was displayed at GTR west when 1114 and 2056 played against eachother. (meaning when delsivering balls and easily coming back from losing in hybrid) the alliance bridge was not yet perfected.
Remember this will most likely not happen but also realize that hybrid will not be everything.
