For a more detailed analysis, come check out my seminar in St. Louis.
In other words, a good strategy would be to use traditional scouting to find robots that complement your robot and strategy, and then look at their calculated contributions along avg. individual scores to help narrow down and rank those robots.
Though at some point, if there is a redundant robot that is a certain amount better than a complimentary robot, you definitely have to consider the redundant robot over the complimentary. How much of a difference must there be to do that? That is a great subject for a team meeting on Friday night.
