Why Cyclops over the Mother? How about 26 protection rather than 11?
Even with trampling and regen out of the box, 11 protection really isn't enough to survive against many troops - even barbarians.

Size 5 can actually be an advantage in some cases - it allows the cyclops to fight with his weapon/s against other size 5 enemies rather than trying to trample them.
