: Excellent point. Seeding Matches and the Elimination Matches celebrate and reward VERY different skills.

: Perhaps this year more than ever, the general concensus view of a team's desireability as a partner and the seeding rank will have little to do with each other.

: To my mind this is not a good thing.

This topic actually came up during our meeting today, and it was discussed as one of the things that will make scouting so important this year...there may be a team that is designed as a solely 'offensive' machine, and actually score in BOTH goals during the match to increase their QP ranking. It is these teams that really need to be looked for in scouting for possible allies during the elim rounds, because these are the same ones that will help to increase your score in the elim rounds by putting all those balls that they put into their opponent's goal earlier into their own in the elim rounds.
