There really isn't a robot this year that can dominate all others, and there is no clear winner, despite what you 1114-hypers like to believe every year. I do believe that 1114's ability to score two Ubertubes in autonomous is a huge advantage for them, along with the other teams who can do the same, but that just means they have good programmers, not a robot that's better than everyone else's.

I would actually argue that 987 has a better robot than 254. Even though 254 went 10-0 in qualifications, 987 ranked higher in our scouting because it appeared as though they had better drivers and made logos much easier than 254. That being said, 254 does have a better mini-bot.
