Oof, depends on the position. Generally, I'll want the 2 rooks, but if it's an open board in an end game with pawns, I'm taking the 2 bishops and knight.

2 bishops + 1 knight is diabolical in an endgame lol

It definitely varies based on skill level.

At low levels of play, 1 is typically superior because they don't know how to coordinate their pieces. However, once you get to the point where piece coordination is a well-understood idea, it equals out a bit; some might even argue that 2 is better. But, it all depends.

If you're being objective, however, then 2 technically is the best, being 10 points of material while the others are only 9. But as I stated above, it's not that simple.

It depends on what pieces your opponent has. If 1 then 2 is best. If 2 then 3. If 3 then 4. If 4 then 1. This is just my opinion, and maybe it is not the best choice. Also 2 rooks against knights is not very good, considering that knights can easily fork them.
