paper: Alliance Seeds and Results

[Brandon Ha]

If you do not believe that the first seed was qualified enough to hold that rank would you accept them? There are few cases ever where this situation is not true but generally speaking, the first seeded team has demonstrated the highest "skill" in the competition at the tournament whether that be through an excellent robot and drive team, or less likely, a great strategic team.
Also, while you may have an easier schedule through elims, would you rather get a blue banner under a team you believe will kill the competition or suck it up with someone else who YOU believe shouldn't be there and get a nice piece of hardware. I dunno about anyone else but Blue Banners are really nice and generally secure yourselves a spot at championships/
