You also allow teams to be more inefficient in their shooting and still get the same results as ultra-efficient alliances (such as that which won Einstein) were able to achieve with fewer discs available.

I think to win IRI with no ammo tweaks will require the most teamwork and efficiency in both scoring everything you have available to you and cleaning up what the opponent misses. I like that notion.
