Re: how effective are the herders/dumpers?

From the experience of having visited one regional, and participated in 2, I've seen dumpers do pretty well in qualifying rounds, when there's a diverse mix of experience on the field.

Once the playoffs start, from what I've seen, you had better have 2 shooters.
This was a big point in our last regional, as 329 was an awesome dumper, but we choose a shooter with our first pick (who happened to be an awesome shooter).

Have there been any regional winning alliances with 2 dumpers (who only dump) and 1 shooter? Or perhaps even 3 dumpers?
