Another alliance that might make the list in the future is the one we have formed with our friends 971. I know your friendship with the Poofs goes back a little farther but we've had some tremendous success together in the few times we've hooked up.

In 2012, the alliance of 1678/971/3189 went undefeated in elims at the Sacramento regional. Our scores in elims were 50-17, 35-22, 52-26, 61-28, 63-30, 63-26 (in order from QF-1 through F-2).

This year, the alliance of 971/1678/766 also went undefeated in elims at the Sacramento regional. Our scores were 225-115, 265-95, 236-97, 256-95, 182-91, 216-87 (again QF-1 through F-2). If anyone's counting at this point, that's 10 out of 12 matches where we at least doubled our opponent's score.

Then at champs this year, the alliance of 1678/971/5136 (all from California) went undefeated all the way through Divisions and Einstein, beating the alliance of 254/469/2848 handily. OK, so that didn't actually happen. Maybe next year?
