While it is not
just about the robot, district teams sometimes cannot financially justify attending Champs, unless the team really feels it is worth going to. It is a different story for you Indiana folks since you are a lot closer.
For a lot of teams, the robot is still the central focus, and playing with friends and teams we love is also the justification for said expenses. Not every team will rationalize going or not going the same way.
I have a feeling the focus for a lot of teams will shift to their District Championship event as their last official event. Others may go to travel off-season events such as IRI and Chezy Champs (low cost+see your old friends)
