This is not necessarily the case. 358 has twice given 3280 their scouting data and access to their scouts because we didn't have enough people to effectively scout on our own. In both of these situations 358 was seeded below us. In one of the two 358 was seeded below us but was also with in the top 8, meaning we were picking the robots that they wanted before they had the opportunity.
From a match prep perspective I don't think I have seen a better system than 1519. Every match I go into I feel that I have a good idea of what the other bots will do. 1519 has concrete data that shows what they will do.
