I think your alliance partners have a much larger impact this year than ever before.

There is enough discussion about how 1114 is a statisically outlier, so I'm not sure they are the best example to prove this point.
Even if your partners have a larger impact this year, you opponents virtually have no impact on your seeding.
I think this year is actually better than most at ranking the teams.
