Not to mention that I dont think anyone would have predicted the finals alliances... not one of the major teams that we all thought would be there! But it was great to see some of the underdogs rise to such awesome ranks!
Actually, it was a #1 v #2 match:
365, 73, 1511 v 1567, 191, 424
Score 8-16
X-Cats (#1 at the time, I think, and great tube bot on blue) played great D and left most of the scoring to 424 (another very good scorer).

FLR turned very defensive in the elims. The defense of the 250's alliance allowed them to win it all with little more than 30 bonus points per match, even against the strong 8th alliance of a very good double lifter (1518) and two good tube bots (340 & 354).
