Why are we only focusing on defending FCS? It's really easy to defend most cycling robots as well.

Remember that human players acquired the balls when the other alliance scored. A full court shooter would not have been particularly game breaking in 2012.

I think your floor pickup (which you must have for the 7 disk) would be wasted sitting parked on the opposite end of the field.

In order to block a FCS, they're on their offensive side of the field. If the FCS leaves to run cycles/hang, 2474 could use their ground pickup to scoop up any blocked shots.
