I'd want to know how good each team's mini-bot is.

If our alliance couldn't pull off first or second, I'm going tube. If I felt we could at least grab 2nd and 3rd, I'm going Minibot.

If it's a qualifying match, Mini-bot regardless. No reason not to show off that you have a mini-bot that can keep up with the others. However if the mini-bot is terrible and will get 4th or not even finish, might want to go for the tube.
