Re: Peachtree flip
I believe in the serpentine era the reason that the low seeds are failing to win, even though they have a better chance to have a more well rounded teams, is that they are looking to have three scoring bots, instead of setting up a strategy like the higher seeds, this often leads to two of the best scorers against 3 average scorers, and if well picked by the first alliance a defensive robot.
Essentially it makes the two top teams from the higher rated alliance, against the two lesser scoring teams on the lower alliance, assuming they cancel.
After Being at the Lansing district the top 4 teams tried for a balanced two scorer, and one defensive bot. Whereas the lower 4 seeds went for 3 scoring robots. There were no "upsets" in the elimination rounds, because of this strategy because there were plenty of defensive robots to go around for the top 4 seeds, We being one of the defensive ones.
