It seems that gears offer the best scoring opportunity, but that alone won't win, balls up high needs to also be a capability.

I think that perfecting a ball launcher could be worth the effort, while placing gears (ideally using vision) is almost a requirement. Look at the points for placing a single gear (to turn the 'easy' rotor) in auto.
Placing all the gears is equivalent to 480 high goals. That number just doesnt seem possible in the 2:15 you have. And then you have the 100 point bonus in elims, which would absolutely drown a high goal robot. The only way scoring fuel would even be semi worth it is if both alliances managed to score all gears, making fuel the tiebreaker.
