This was the case for the #1 alliance. We had 2054 high on the list of teams available, but when it came down to the pick, our strategy called for more of an inbounder/defender than a scorer/trusser.

When we played with 2054 earlier in the day, they did not feel they could "pass" the ball effectively without rocking the robot. We were concerned with their ability to inbound effectively and ball security.

We felt better with 74 being the inbounder than adjusting our planned strategy to fit for 2054.

Unfortunately, sometimes alliance selection comes down to the perception of which robot style best fits an alliances planned strategy. Making the right second pick can make or break an alliance.
