Exactly, so if each of the 6 Imbounders can hold 2 of the balls, and all do at the same time, that's 12 balls out of play, and only 6 others available on the field. Pretty big disadvantage.

If each of your alliance's Imbounders had 2, and if all of your robots had 3, that's only 3 left for the opposing alliance.
