The artificial boosting of the first gear value I think also made gear robots more desirable(120 to 160) as a design choice. Overall, I think at some event, a robot will go undefeated, get their kpa bonus each match, and get all four rotors spinning for half their matches.

This is about what I'm expecting. The right auto will be very important this year.
