Re: Are 1114, 217, and 148 beatable?

Their machine has only so much to do with winning the gold. The main factors were the relationship these 3 teams have with each other and how experienced their drive team was. Yes, they are beatable. But I doubt that there are many alliances that will be able to take them out of the competition.

As far luck goes, I don't think there was much luck involved when 1114 ended up seeding #1. As many have pointed out before in quiet a few threads that 1114 built a machine that can probably take on a lot of alliance just on their own. They were putting up enough points each match that I can't think of a team to compare them to. I believe this was the first year in a long time I felt that team 1114, 217 and 148 earned the gold without any luck. If there is anything "lucky" about this alliance, it would be the fact that 148 was still available for the pick.

It's not the machine that mattered the most, what was the strategy they came up with to earn the gold.
