A rare design, but deadly if well built.
Jugglers are not hybrids, but have FS-like weapons and a popup-like body.
They need a good wedge and a fast drive train. Their weapons are two small spinning discs placed horizontally like disc HS, but they are on top of the bot and the effective weapons are on top of the disc.
The tactic is rushing on the opponent, getting under, and staying under as the small spinners grinds the other bot's undersides.
They are so called due to the "Juggling" effect they create.
The typical juggler is Neglected Waterbug. Despite being more than 4 years old, it is still recognized as one of the better stock Jugglers (if not the better) ever.
Other Jugglers: Hazardous Contraption, won BBEANS4.
NeglectedVain, fought in BBEANS 1
PROS
-Excellent gut-rippers -Fast -Good wedges
CONS
-Vulnerable to flanking or rear attacks -Not invertible
