Re: 3 Teams Per Side Too Many?

I enjoyed 3v3 more than 2v2 for several reasons.
a) more matches
b)even if 1 robot breaks or doesnt show, 2 robots vs. 3 isnt always a loss, like it often was in a 1v2.
c)more strategic options
d)more action on the field
e)more room to create a "team" in the eliminations
What I mean by the last one is, in a 2v2 scenario, you have only 1 other robot to fill out your alliance during any one match, so you choose the robot that best helps you, and you alone. But with 2 others, you can create an alliance with more specific roles for each robot. Instead of 1 offensive bot and 1 defensive, or 1 capper and 1 hanger, ect., you have 1 "physical" defensive bot, 1 speed capper, and 1 height capper, or something like that.
