Their first pick would ideally be someone who could pick from the landfill, probably a dual grabber. This person would ideally average 36 points a game. They would focus on solely making the stacks, not capping them. Although they would only score 36 points, the value would be much higher as the last pick would ideally cap it.

This is exactly what we saw at GSCR last weekend. The 4th seed alliance swept everything from Quals onward because they had this exact composistion, the only problem was that their container scorer could not retrieve from the full landfill so they rarely/never got a 4th stack capped. The landfiller got a consistant 2 stacks of 5 with a couple extra on the side, and the chute stacker got 2 stacks of 4/5 and they always capped 3 of them.
Right after alliance selection everyone in our betting pool was trying to pick them up to win.
