We did make that call. We looked at the previous match when we only lost by 6 even when it was 2v3 because 27 had transmission issues during the match. We as an alliance made the call that it was not worth bringing in the backup when they would be running in the next match if we won. We only won because of penalties but it was a gutsy choice and it really payed off. It would have been almost impossible to move on without 27.
