Was there ever any elaboration on why Cyclops was considered one of the best champs in MCOC?

Title says it all. Believe it or not, I really enjoy using Cyclops (I prefer blue over Red). More so because I am a fan of the character, but overall (with the right synergies) he can be fun to play for lower level questing. I've seen little jokes here and there about how Cyclops is one of the best and initially I thought this fell in the same category as the "GROOT is the BEST" memes that show up everywhere. Apparently its been said that Cyclops is one of the most effective champs. I'm curious if there has been any elaboration on this theory. Karate Mike did a video on using Cyclops, but he's great with just about every champ in the game. Is there something that I am missing? Cyclops is fun to use, but I haven't seen anything that makes him come across as overly effective.

But to answer your question, cyke is garbage. His best usage is a synergy piece and thats it.
This meme saw the future
This is why he is the best. Little throwback but still valid to this day.
Where it all started...
I can't stop laughing.
My 3* Groot can finish that fight faster.
