Not always.
In San Diego, we chose 294 because they played a good defense. The disconnect between qualifying and elimination strategies does create a problem for defensive robots. Play your game and hurt your alliance's ranking or play for ranking and hurt your chance of being selected, if you don't make the top 8.
