4 for driving, just like every other year
1 for a "ball magnet" like other teams have discussed and shown here, rolling continuously.
2 for a kicker - each one only needs to complete 1 full revolution out of the gear box per kick.
1 for a lifter which will only be used for 5-10 seconds at the end of the match.
So, a lot of motors to do a lot of different things... but overall not any more battery intensive than any other year.
