Speaking from both sides of alliance selection... It does not matter at all what type of mechanism you build. It only matters how effectively you can execute it.
To answer the initial question: a strong scoring ability for a 1st round pick (1 auto GEAR, 4-6 teleop GEARs or equivalent FUEL) and a reliable climber. For second round picks: a smart drive team that can play strong defense without drawing fouls (harder than it sounds) with the ability to score at least 1x gear in Auto or Teleop and climb. Paramount to both picks will be the ability to navigate a heavily FUEL-contaminated field.
Side note: given bumper rules, FUEL and GEAR contamination of the field is going to be a serious consideration.
