Re: Alliance Captain versus last pick in Alliance Selection

Captain at the regional level and Captain at Champs(but only by a slight bit), because I like captaining and at that last slot unless you're at the most competitive regional ever you probably wouldn't get selected or have a good champs showing(not experience however because it would be good for your team).

For Champs, my (now former) team made a push this and last year to be a team that gets to champs frequently and to make elims and specifically to not be a backup bot... so I'm gonna with captaining as well. The 4th slot gives me a weird vibe though cause that means you probably didn't scout very well, you yourself might not have deserved it, or something broke.

Also, my team literally did the 1A and 2B last year and it isn't that bad other than knowing people didn't scout except your alliance captain.

However 2B gets you on Einstein and being on Einstein is an amazing experience for drive team members even if you aren't playing
