Not sure about this one. There have been plenty of teams that changed their design late in the season or during the season and have done very well. The best example of this is probably World Champion 67 in 09. Just off the top of my head others include 469's gripper in 07, 2039 in 09, 33 in 09, 16 in 09. All of those teams either won regionals or made it to the eliminations at the championshop with their new design.
