Wide orientation robots with the COG as far toward the back (trailer hitch) as possible were the best performing skid-steer robots. Swerve also worked well. Anyone with fans also had a distinct advantage.

Depends on how teams implemented it.

Yes, some used swerve quite well.

No, using more two actually generally made it worse since it greatly amplified your chances of slipping. Dynamic friction is always less than static friction.
