Re: What will separate the good from the great?
I think that good low bots will be able to breach 2-3 defenses and then feed a shooter or score low goals, and a great low bot will be able to breach 4-5 defenses quickly while single-handedly weakening the tower.
A good high bot/shooter specialist will hit >50% of their shots at the same rate that they are fed balls by a low bot, and a great high bot/shooter specialist will hit 80-90% of their shots, and still have time to roam the courtyard and harrass the opponent's defender, maybe even stealing a ball or two from the Secret Passage.
However, I would agree that consistency is one thing that makes a robot great. A robot that can do something amazing twice out of ten is arguably less useful to an alliance than a robot that can do something easy every single time.
