In an attempt to divert the conversation away from "469 & 1114"....Lets say another team IS a #1 seed, and they earned it (with a little luck). If they pick 1114 (accept), then does the #1 seed beat 469 and the next best robot?

As an example: Would 1114 & 2059 (not in curie but has a history with 1114) beat 469 and the next best bot in Curie?

I assume you mean 2056? This is all really a matter of strategy, and how well the robots fit that strategy. If the 1114 alliance can get good defense on 469 once they get into the tunnel, then all is not lost, because the other alliance members may or may not be able to pick up the slack. On the other hand, 469 may not even have good scorers that will get the balls in the loop in the first place. There's too little real information to actually answer your question.
