I doubt that a 3 cycler alliance, at least at low to middle levels of play, would be able to cycle fast enough for the low bar ability to become a significant advantage. Keep in mind a strong alliance will need both breach and tower points, so these teams will have to go through the other defenses for most of the match anyway, nullifying much of the low bar cycling strength.
