There's a very definite reason why the trailers of 176 and 118 were full (both of whom did empty cell duty against that alliance during the eliminations).

I agree that empty cells are a risk because you are vulnerable to pinning but from what I saw in OKC it's hard to beat a quick thirty points. A lot of teams here were wide eyed amateurs who couldn't block empty cell delivery as well as some of the lower number teams, so I'm sure we'll have to mix things up a bit when we get to Atlanta.
