Other things you should consider:
- the game and strategy, what's it gonna be?
- field layout and obstacles?
- is your robot going to be primarily defensive or offensive?
- if your primary design is offensive, will you be able to score points yourself or expecting minimal help from alliance partners?
- if its defensive robot, will you be able to successfully defend, are your drivers ready to defend irrespective of match result? If your partners are not able to score would your be ok?
- do teams in your region generally have a well designed offensive robots?

We have been using shifters and its a challenge for our drive team to switch in to defense mode, its more of mental block and hesitation.
