"What does your robot do the best"

I would follow that with

"Are you being honest" or "Are you sure"

I was looking for answers related to what role they would be playing during teleop -passing quickly-inbounding consistently-shooting either goals consistently-able to truss-strong defence etc.

It helps to ask if their being honest. Lots of times team members would rethink their answer and give me a new one. Teams aren't lying to sabotage your alliance, they just don't want to admit something isn't working properly for some reason of their own. Also, depending who you talk to from a single team, you may get a different answer.

When your preparing strategy for qualifying matches its always good to know what teams do best since the defined roles on an alliance can decide if you win or lose the match.
