This was the highest quality FRC Regional i've ever seen, all of those teams listed would do well on a field at championship. The field of 32 teams at Waterloo was historically deep, we got a robot that could do 3+ cycles a match with the 23rd pick, 1114/2056 got a long range shooter with the 24th pick, I call that depth.

At most regionals during qualifications the event can get a little monotonus with a couple poor matches in a row. At Waterloo there was rarely any slow matches during qualifications, everyone in the stands were engaged, I even saw arena staff and regular Waterloo students getting into the games during qualifications.
I don't think Waterloo's matches "rarely being slow" has anything to do with depth of field. When there are only 32 teams, and about 20% of the robots at the event are on the field at the same time, chances are there will be at least one good robot.

Ignoring the scores of 1114, 2056, and 4069 during elimination, the average elimination score at Waterloo was 101 (121 if you included them).
Compare that to Boilermaker which had an average elimination of 97 (or 88 if you removed 359, 868, and 1747), I'd say that's similar, but I wouldn't say that BMR had that much depth.

My guess is that you'd find similar results for other regional competitions.
