What is a defensive/offensive hybrid robot?
It's an effective ringer scoring robot with a strong enough drivetrain to play shutdown defense when needed. 379 fits that bill perfectly. In addition to these, you can also have ringer scoring/ramp hybrids (503) and ramp/defense hybrids (48).

It's good to be able to do two things well. I think you'd want to have a bit of flexibility on your alliance - it helps you cover for unexpected emergencies.
