My own personal opinion: whatever you end up deciding to do, you need to be open and honest with your alliance partners, and you should not attempt to harm their individual best efforts.

I'd hope you would never find yourself involved in that situation. As a rule, you should never ask someone to throw a match and put them in that situation. Seeding high because others volunteered to lose is against the spirit of competition.

There are years that break the mold and call for 6v0 strategies, in this case it isn't "throwing" a match because the entire alliance is involved.
