That pattern isn't really that shocking. Any team that has faced the top ranked teams in a match will tend to have a lower ranking. Any team that has faced them multiple times will have an even lower ranking. The bad part here is not that teams that face good robots multiple times end up with a poor ranking, it is that teams HAD to face the same good robot 4+ times.
Anyway, watch this space for redos of the stats I posted yesterday, but including the final day.
