Go to Post I, for one, refused to be railroaded down this train of thought so easily! Geeze, one lousy game hint just builds up steam for any old picture to come through and go two pages in a matter of hours. - Billfred [more]

I agree that you should master one thing, though I don't think many teams use shifters just for their pushing power. If you have a second speed, it allows you to gear your for a higher speed. This means that you are more effective at solving the game task. In addition however, it also allows you to be able to win many of the pushing matches you will face in eliminations. In my opinion, the shifter allows you to be a more effective scorer.
