That being said, I would not be surprised if they do 5 6 stacks regularly.

Their max scoring ability is almost irrelevant come elims, unless they are able to pick partners who can acquire recycling cans off the platform in auto (but it should put them in great position to seed high enough to pick those teams).

This is very true. If an alliance grabs all four cans from the center, giving them a total of seven, and makes 4 six stacks with cans and noodles, they'll get 168 points. Making these four stacks requires 24 totes, almost all that are in the feeder station, but I don't think this is too unreasonable for a good alliance.

If the opposing alliance has only three cans, and they make three six stacks with noodles and cans, they'll get 126 points. To get even with the other alliance, they need to score 42 more points, which is 21 more totes to stack. That means they'll have to take take totes from the landfill, and have a total of 7 stacks on the field, 3 six stacks with noodles + cans, 3 six stacks, and 1 3 stack.
