Re: Who is going to be on Einstein?
I think that the two most important positions on an alliance are a feeder station robot (whether that be a FCS or just a fast cycler) and a floor loader (preferably with a multi-disc autonomous). The third robot can occupy a multitude of positions- from defensive climber to "offensive lineman"/climber or even another cycle-runner.
I think this year- above all other previous years- is going to see the largest disparity in alliance composition on Einstein.
All of the above being said, sometimes you'll have robots that can fill a sort-of combination niche- like 1986- who has a 7 disc auto, but during teleop plays the role of a fast feeder station loader. So an alliance like 1986-987-3rdRobot would still work because they have complementary multi-disc autos and play different roles on an alliance.
