Look at The Florida regional from this year.

My team was sitting in 8th, we picked two teams that were way down in the rankings. We beat the #1 seed alliance, then we made it all the way to the Finals and lost due to mechanical failure. we have never "really" scouted before and we knew we were going to be playing some tough teams this year. So we decided to dedicate two of our team members to scout, and they did a good job, we picked 79 from the mid-30's and 801 from IIRC 28th. Both teams had very excellent robots, but had some bad luck during the matches. If we had not scouted so thoroughly I do not think we would have even made it past the qf's.
