GTR East has the potential to be an absolute fireshow this year. In addition to 1114 and 2056, 781 is also coming out after a regional win and championship finalist last year. 610 and 188 were division finalists last year with 469 and lost to the eventual Champs in 3 matches. And 548, who made a big splash in Michigan last year, is coming out to play. You can't say that none of last year's success is going to blow over to this year. If any of these teams build a robot like last year's then the whole game is blown wide open. And this is ignoring the mid-tier teams that are also at GTRE.

If any year is going to change that, it'll be this year. All it will take is for someone to seed higher than 1114 or 2056. It's a tall order, sure, but there are teams here that can do it (heck, 188 came this close to doing it in both 2009 and 2010). And if it does happen, all bets are off.
