2015 was a weird animal because of how ranking worked. I would not expect to see anything like the noodle agreement this year. One team getting the gear ranking point does not benefit the other team at all. Additionally, a team getting all four rotors running is going to result in a lot of points potentially winning the match and depriving their opponents of 2 ranking points. Unlike in 2015 where ranking was entirely based off of average match score. Your ranking was almost independent of your opponents score. This is not true this year where the largest component(50%) of your ranking is the relative score. Helping your opponents during a match to score points is not going to be beneficial to you this year.
