With most of the waitlist teams signing up for Champs, I thought it would be fun for the CD community to come up with a power alliance from the state that they are from. Doing this could provide some insight for different area teams. Here goes mine..

Missouri

Captain: Team 1986: Provides a 7 disk auton. 3-4 disk cycles. A 30 pt climb at the end. 108 pts.

First Pick: Team 1806: Provides a 3 disk auton. 12 Full court shots at ~80%. A 50 pt climb at the end. 92 pts.

Second Pick: Team 1706: Provides a 3 disk auton. 21 Full court shots at ~70%. A 10 pt climb. with 2 pyrmaid shots. 83 pts.

Total: 283 points depending on robot blockers and the human players on the teams. The key to this alliance is that 1986 can run quick cycles if the other alliances choose to not defend both full court shooters, but then then one full court shooter gets free reign on the field.

Note: The other Missouri teams 1208(I know they are from "IL" but East St. Louis seams to much "MO" to not include them), 1288, 1730, 1939, 1985, 1987, 2408, 2457, 3284, 3528, and 4522 are all great teams, but I think this combo would put up the most points. The teams from Missouri this year have led me to believe that a blue banner might just get to stay in the state for once.
