Well, everyone's put in valid and logical reasons for or against the Endgame.
I'm for the Endgame, just because, IMHO, it allowed greater team specialization. For instance, in 2013, teams could choose to be shooters, defense bots, climbers, or any combination. This allowed teams to choose a role that fit their team's philosophy, allowing them to learn more. In 2014, teams basically were told to shoot or block, with some wiggle room. I just guess I didn't like how we had to think harder to come up with our eventual strategy.
