Drive Trains

What exactly sets apart a "good" drive train from a "mediocre" drive train? This is my first year in FIRST, and drivetrains seem to be one of the things that increase the performance of a robot.
Maybe my question can be better phrased as: what are the different elements of a drive train, and how do teams maximize each elements performance.
Ive been checking out some drive train pictures, and I am astounded by some that are machine and look like some kind of rover or something. Another thing that surprised me is that some drivetrains had wheels that were not "aligned"

Sorry, I'm kind of typing out loud
Thank you for your input
