Re: Most likely division to produce the champs

Eenie, meenie, miney. moe....

Anybodies guess as this year many of the top teams will not be seeded (as many have already stated), due to the god aweful alliance algorithem and the limited number of seeding matches.

Once the dust settles, the alliance pairing in each division will be interesting to witness, as about 25% of the lowered numbered teams will be selecting partners without much experience at scouting or strategizing.

Most of the power house teams will be selected, rather than be selecting.

The only saving grace, is that in a super big regional the 3rd round of the serpentine draft will still provide the higher number seeds (last selecting) some really good machines.

The weaker higher seeded selecting teams, that get their on the backs of the stronger partners in seeding matches, will be exposed easily. It's gonna be really tough for 2-8 seeded teams to give up their picking ability, by accepting a request from a weaker (shouldn't really be seeded) team.

The division champs will be the most robust (it's gonna get rough out there).

Once the division champs are determined, its a crap shoot. Any of the divisions have a chance to take home the prize.

That's how I see it - Good Luck to all - Have some fun!
