Exactly. Plus, should the opposing team throw up a tall pool-noodle robot, the cycler could start running cycles while the FCS plays defense- thus the importance of not being too top-heavy. Mr. Pool Noodle will be left inept, unable to play offense effectively making it a 3 on 2 game for the the team employing the FCS.
