There were a ton of co-op specialists that found their way into the top 8 this year(or at least at MN regionals). Co-op inflated ranks this year, and put some teams in the top 8 that shouldn't of been there this year.
I understand that co-op specialists have other roles they can adapt to during eliminations as well, that may possibly make them an ideal teammate, but teams who do nothing but co-op during an entire regional, and end up in the top 8 usually end up unprepared to adapt to other roles during eliminations, which makes them an undesirable partner for eliminations.
Co-op sort of made this year's ranking system a little unreliable for some cases.
