Reality will be more complex (you'd have to look at how good the opponents are at defense, the 3rd partner, etc), but you get the idea.
I see where your going with that, but I still feel like if you put a list down of +/-'s (much like you would do in an alliance captain role) it will be hard to see the value of a robot such as boxbot.

Alliance +/- will reflect this if we assume even alliance distribution. However, me and you both know this often isn't the case, and teams +/-'s may be skewed depending on whether they consistently are with or against good robots.
