I think this one is a great one for teams looking for inspiration to be a "Champion".
Ask any team taht regularly makes it on to Einstein, and they will all tell you there is a bit of luck (right schedule, right division, right call made/missed...) on making it to or winning Einstein. Most of the regulars will also tell you though that they harder/smarter they work, the luckier they seem to get.
Once your team gets to a "good enough" level of play, they are good enough to be on Einstein, but some element outside of the teams control impacts them from making it, and is often viewed as Bad Luck. Often though, that "Bad Luck" can be mitigated through some other (occasionally extraordinary) effort.
