A robot that:
1) Does not get stuck on Defenses
2) Does not have connection problems
3) Does not break down (performs reliably)
4) Does not tip easily
5) Good driver
6) Round out defense crossing abilities

Another question as well, can a defense-dedicated robot be selected, or does it make more sense to take the top available scoring machine and cheesecake on a blocker?

The Alliance captain could be looking for a 3rd shooter, and a Defender for the 3rd and 4th robot. A 3rd shooter that can also play defense would be a good choice. If you have 2 of those (defense capable, but not necessarily defense only) gives the alliance the most options.

How about a defense robot with a scoring autonomous mode and a climber?

Scoring (crossing) during Autonomous is a requirement. Shooting during autonomous and climbing would be a reason to pick your bot over another defense bot that could not.
