Well as an ex-scout and now mentor, I'm gonna have to add some of my experience.

Anupam, I understand your want for The Great Database, but I feel it will turn out like Charlie Brown's Great Pumpkin-->it does not exist. But I'm not trying to discourage you by any means. Ideally, I would love for there to be a database for all the teams, but there are just so many different things to consider.

You have scoring, maneuverability, driver's skill, hanging, endgame bonuses, sometimes human player.

You can have 3 high scoring robots on an alliance, but if the drivers can't cooperate and bump into each other the entire time, the opposing alliance has a chance.

For example, during Lunacy, the plan was for Exploding Bacon (shoutout to you guys!), because tbh they were the lowest scoring team on our alliance, to play defense on our opposing alliance. They did great the first match and we were confident we were going to win. Then my team got pinned and we lost the 2nd match. Got pinned in 3rd match, but out of nowhere Bacon came swinging and won the match for us with a last minute unload into the trailers of the pinning robots.

I mean, its not all about statistics, sometimes its about how you can cooperate and how you improvise.
