: That will be another thing that will be the same EVERY match.

So true. Just think, in the elimination matches, once an alliance is established, it will perfect its strategy and play it the same every time. There is no responding to changes when opponents do something. Also, because there are no opponents, failures will be less common, and the fifth team may sit out the entire time. You could literally watch the winning alliance do the same thing 10 times in a row if you watch the elimination rounds.

Its like watching synchronized swimming. Everyone knows what they are supposed to do and at what time. Then they do it over and over again. Its like clockwork -- and there is really no advantage to quick thinking, but rather methodical planning. Methodical planning isn't necessarily a bad thing, but its sure isn't very exciting.
