Hubicki is an unknown quantity at this point
I would steer away from the whole 1 alliance idea. Watching 2001 matches vs. 2002 matches, 2002 was a whole lot more exciting. And the key factor with 2 v 2 was audience participation and attitude. In 2001, yes you were rooting for the teams, but in the back of your mind, you were hoping that they'd mess up so you could take the lead. And I heard complaints that a game without an opponent was boring. This year, you were rooting for an alliance (most likely the underdog) to do well and beat the big, bad, dominant alliance. The 2 v 2 setup is much too invigorating and just plain cool to pass up. There are other ways to de-emphasize torque that are just as effective. In fact, I think a cooperative match may even de-emphasize torque TOO much, to the point that speedy, maneuverable robots will be the only robots on the field.
