We have been top seed at three regionals since I have been with Team 233 and have won all three times. There is always luck involved, both in being top seed and in winning a competition, but being top seed gives you a huge advantage over every other team in that you are able to pick one of your partners from the entire field. Occasionally they may decline, but not often.
