Or a set of three independent teams ("We are sick of alliances after all the whining last year.* It's a free-for-all, and the last three standing win!"). Or the ultimate evil option - a four team alliance, and the alliance has to pick which team has to stay behind for the benefit of the entire alliance (subliminal message: "do you REALLY understand the Nash Equilibrium in the general class of non-cooperative games?").
Just because you know something, don't assume that you actually know something.
