That design is not very effective at winning regionals, but it complements any powerhouse alliance/

This year, a team that dominated a regional would be successful at worlds. In 2012, 4334's strategy proved that this didn't have to be true. Whether to build for Einstein or to try to blow out the competition at a regional while risking success at higher levels comes down to team beliefs, strategy, and the game.
