Well I was dead wrong on this one!
I underestimated the strength of the top robots at the regional are so much better than the other robots that they can even overcome having a lesser allaince partner if they ahve an equally dominant robot on thier side.
All the same I dislike the serpentine draft and I hope FIRST does away with it. THey don't keep every new thing they try (remember the 2003 cumalitive score playoff structure?)
