Effectiveness of Kicking vs. Pushing

So, I think there are the two main categories(of mechanisms, strategy may vary) for this year(similar to shooter/dumper from last year). Kicking would be effective for getting the ball long range down the field/Getting the ball between zones. This would be useful in the case that you're robot was in the opposite alliance's zone. Pushing will be most useful to score the balls in the goal's(Gentler). Thoughts on the subject/Thoughts on which one will be more widespread this year?
