Example: there are 4 alliances in semis. Alliance 1 has the fastest can grabbers, alliances 2 and 3 have the next fastest, alliance 4 doesn't have any. Alliance 1 grabs all 4 cans in every match and puts up 5 stacks, alliance 4 grabs zero in every match. In order for alliance 1 to not make the finals alliances 2 and 3 have to grab all 4 cans and put up 7 stacks when they play against the 4th alliance, and they have to go 2 and 2 on the cans when they play each other building 5 stacks a piece. If any of these conditions are not met, alliance 1 has a free by into the finals.
