:The tourney format might keep the essential pieces of a 700 pt alliance from actually coming together.
Hate to say this, but I hope this happens. The selection process for the divisions is "semi-random", and I personally think it'll be much more of an intriguing challenge to have to rely on lesser-known robots.....in the past few years, I personally think that the picking at Nationals is predictable, because you barely ever see the newer teams 'breaking through the glass ceiling' simply because they are new, and they aren't as familiar to the teams that are seeded high, which leans more towards the older teams.
Maybe, since the focus has changed (aka, choosing within your division), the finals will be a little more varied.
