Fun Fact: As far back as I can find, 254/971 have never lost a match together. Ever. (including offseasons) All 5 regional wins have been at SVR (2004, 2009, 2010, 2012, 2014) and were straight 6-0 runs except 2009, which involved 1 tie. 971 was the alliance captain in all 5 victories.

Another alliance that might make the list in the future is the one we have formed with our friends 971. I know your friendship with the Poofs goes back a little farther but we've had some tremendous success together in the few times we've hooked up.

In 2012, the alliance of 1678/971/3189 went undefeated in elims at the Sacramento regional. Our scores in elims were 50-17, 35-22, 52-26, 61-28, 63-30, 63-26 (in order from QF-1 through F-2).

This year, the alliance of 971/1678/766 also went undefeated in elims at the Sacramento regional. Our scores were 225-115, 265-95, 236-97, 256-95, 182-91, 216-87 (again QF-1 through F-2). If anyone's counting at this point, that's 10 out of 12 matches where we at least doubled our opponent's score.

Then at champs this year, the alliance of 1678/971/5136 (all from California) went undefeated all the way through Divisions and Einstein, beating the alliance of 254/469/2848 handily. OK, so that didn't actually happen. Maybe next year?

It could have! But you guys just had to go and pick that lousy Canadian team...

By the luck of the draw, 2729 was paired once with 2590 during qualification rounds at every competition we attended this year and scored no less than 200 points as a part of the alliance. Go to show the strength of their team and robot! The other-side of the coin, we had to face 2590 in quarterfinals at our two district competitions. They are an excellent group to align with!

In the north west, 2471 (Team Mean Machine) won with 2046 (Bear Metal) multiple times. All that comes to mind is Seattle 2012, and Portland 2013. Unfortunately, we only got to play with them in one match this year. (Hopefully we'll see more of them next year )
