It's all about who's robot works better, how well it can function in this year's game.
Better is relative. There is no hands down *best* anything this year, or most years. There are viable ways of accomplishing a task or ways that aren't practical. Not to mention the insane amount of luck it takes in each event to win. Lucky breaks and trying to minimize failures or mental breakdowns are what these games are all about, like any sport.
