Re: What are the most desirable attributes top seed teams are looking for in a robot?
Generally this question has a similar answer from season to season: see Karthik's strategy tutorial as referenced in an earlier post at this thread.

Go for something simple that can complete a task CONSISTENTLY each and every match; the top seed teams will be scouting you for certain. Preferably the robot can do this during autonomous just as well as during teleop. Also, endgame capabilities are usually a must have from season to season.

Specifically, for SteamWorks... well it's still up in the air(ship) as to what specifics will be required from a 2nd or 3rd alliance member, but.... I encourage you to KISS (keep it simple, stupid) and best of luck!
