Re: Increasing tower strength for Championships.

We will see more clearly as the weeks progress. Captures are still rare--though there have been a few in quals, usually they're seen in semis and finals.

If the teams progress to where most matches on Saturday get very close, or succeed, I would expect a strengthening. If, on the other hand, captures remain a relative rarity outside of elims, and somewhat in elims, I'd expect anywhere from nothing to a 1-point weakening.

My prediction: 0-1 point increase.
