Re: 3 Team Alliance + On Deck

2 points, no 3.

1) I don't see why they wouldn't qualify, the 4 teams one the tourney, all 4 should qualify.

2) The Championships are not full this year, so I am not sure what qualifying for the Championships means.

3) Here is the tough spot for me. Let's suppose you are partnered with a Killer Team that makes it much more likely to win the whole thing. But, in the second match of the quarter-finals, they break with the final, deciding match to be played. The Killer Team thinks they can be ready for the semi-finals if you make it, but are not ready to go on for teh upcoming quarter-final match.

Do you bench the Killer Team for the rest tourney in order to make it more likely to advance to make it to the semi-finals or to you try to win the upcoming match one team down so that if you DO make it to the semi-finals you have a better shot at the whole gig?

4) (a new question comes to mind) What are they going to do in the Play-offs? Do all these on deck teams put there robots in the Georgia Dome? Do they stay around for the divisional playoffs?


Interesting...
