I've not studied either game in great detail to make a decision either way but with a central scoring location, won't it be easier for the audience to see who is scoring and keep track. With the multiple goals in elevation around the ring, you might just miss a crucial score. I do like the big bonus block that can easily be seen flipped over multiple times.
Having seen the new FTC robot demonstrated, I don't see the PVC rack or rooftop material giving them a real headache. Big, Beefy 12 VDC motors should be able to drive just fine. They had an insane terrain last April in the Atlanta test event. I saw many robots drive up and down some serious inclines. The flip up ramp does mean that teams will really need to consider CG or be religated to floor only play.
