Depends on who does the picking. Most of the better teams (veteran or rookie) has scout teams in the stands painstakingly watching every match. They will know if you have an awesome robot but poor allaince pairings, or the opposite, if your robot isn't quite up to par but got really lucky.
I know for a fact that we have picked teams several times that were almost at the bottom of the pack due to their performance on the field. They had an awesome bot but just got unlucky pairings. Yes reputation has some part but make sure your performance on the field is what gives you that reputation!
