The round robin will only be for einstein. Basically there will be 6 division winners moving on to Einstein, and 6 doesn't make a single elimination bracket. So each alliance will play a match against every other alliance (so 5 matches each) and the best two records (with some sort of tiebreaker because ties are common with round robins) will move on to a best of three final round.
VEX has done it this way at their "Einstein" for years with 5 alliances, so check out videos on YouTube to see what it's like.
