You need to have a robot that has been dominating all season and a team with a big reputation. Refer to all of this year's IRI alliances because just by looking at the teams you see a list of elites (with 1 or 2 exceptions). There is no room on those alliances for a team that did "pretty well" comparatively in their season. They DO scout, but they scout to look for a level of teams beyond the norm. Most at IRI just don't fit the mold.

Notice how on each alliance, each robot is one of those top performers who could probably carry an alliance by themselves to victory at most regionals. But after all, this is not a regional.
i see... ok that just mean this year we have to have a good showing huh
