During the Elimination Matches, two Teams from an Alliance compete on the Playing Field. If the Alliance has
three Teams, the Team that sits out the first Match must play in the second Match, with no exceptions. If the
Alliances play more than two Matches in any bracket, any combination of two Alliance Robots may be used.
