Not sure if I really added anything to the conversation, but I thought I'd throw my two cents in on the regional I know the best.
I'm sure GKC will be quite competitive, and 1986 is by no means guaranteed to win it. 1730, 1775, 1806, 1986, 1987, and 4522 are all perennial contenders, plus this year 624 will be in attendance. The upper-mid level teams are no joke either - 935, 1108, 1723, 1785, 1825, 2410, and 3528, just off the top of my head - it wouldn't surprise me a bit if one of those won as a captain / first pick.
