in most of the matches that i saw this year it was normally one vs one on one side of the field, and then one vs one on the other side of the field. however, i like the two on two style because not every robot can be built to do everything at once.
our team moved down a lot in the ranks at nats due to i wouldnt say poor alliances, but alliances where the other robot was flipped within the first thirty seconds or so of the game, so it was pretty much left up to us. i remember one we were allied with, at the time, the number one ranked team in our divison, but it was flipped very early in the game. and so it was just us against the other alliance teams, who were also ranked very high up. but, alliances can also help you move up in the ranks, as they did for us at the canadian regionals a couple of times
