868 definitely received a wild card invitation to Champs from Queen City. The Captain of the winning alliance, 16, had already won the Arkansas Regional so they generated a wild card spot to the finalist alliance from Queen City. The pecking order for a wildcard slot is Finalist Captain, Finalist 1st pick, Finalist 2nd, Finalist backup team; Pick 868 was the captain so they earned the wildcard spot.
