Re: Aerial Assist Discussion Thread

With all this talk about 1O 2D Alliances being as points-capable as a 2O 1D or 3O alliance (at least in many regionals) I would like to point out this EXTREMELY important fact:

The FMS ranks all Teams in decreasing order, using the following sorting criteria:

Table 5-1: Qualification MATCH Ranking Criteria
1st order sort Qualification Score
2nd order sort Cumulative Sum of ASSIST Points
...

This means that winning matches is the most important (obviously)
but if all you do is play by yourself, you are crippling yourself if other teams have the same win-loss score as you, if they got their points using assists.
