Where the Archimedes lacks in climbing points are recovered by autonomous. 254 can run a 7 disc, 469 can run a 5 disc, and their third alliance partner can put up 3 for a 90 pt auto. The Galileo alliance will be hard pressed to be able keep up with that. Furthermore, no one can beat 469 in scoring white discs. 2468 is a good full court shooter than can help feed both rapidly. while 1114 and 111 are very strong cyclers, both take more time than 469, and with 2468 potentially feeding 469 and 254, they will be hard pressed to keep pace. 842 has a ground pickup, but their shots are much slower than the others. If all of the variables line up, archimedes could beat galileo, but they will be hard pressed to do it. No one said it was an easy ride to a world championship.
