Most of the data that we use to pick teams comes straight from watching matches, where opinions mean nothing.

well thats all good but will that strategy work for teams that may just need a
defensive alliance partner in order to score alot of points.
i know that was the case for a couple of teams we played with and against
a team that scored only 2-3 ringers in a match would not be considered a great team(but they were blocked the whole match), with a decent defensive alliance partner they can score 7-8 in a row.
not criticising your strategy or anything im just saying watch out for those teams, there will be quite a few of them out there. I saw 3 here in NJ already
