Will they ever help you?
Will we be able to beat the alliance we are coming up against or would we be better off picker our own alliance?

There's a great story about that within
The New Cool.
As far as everything else has been stated, while I agree with both Aaron and Jaxom, it really depends on what regional you're at and what the state of the shooters are there. You could be at a regional knee deep in amazing cross court shooters, or you could be wading through puddles of decent shooters that could function as a cross court feeder. If you know that your next few alliances have strong cross court shooters, get a strong powered defender. If only one of your matches have a cross court shooter, just add a pizza box defender to a shooter and you're good. (For the love of all things FIRST get the thing inspected (And ensure that it is indeed inspected) after you add it!). Alternatively, if you can get a shooter like 973 or 639, who are really really tall shooters, all the better! They can function as tall defenders but still with the ability to shoot.
