Well, my overall point was that you can figure out the overall strength directly after the seeding matches end, and then spend the next 2 hours working out which robots of those are most compatible with your own and making connections with those teams. It's primarily a way of focusing your effort, not doing everything for you.

Got it. That makes sense. You want to be choosing a robot that fits your alliance needs from a subset that has been determined to be good.
