I also expect to see 4th robots more, but as a way to buy time for repairs. Stronghold is hard on these bots, and a season of abuse coupled with defense in high stakes matches is going to lead to some damage. I would not be surprised to see a captain or first pick subbed out if they need a major repair, especially if the alliance is up 1-0, to preserve the timeout coupon or if it has already been used.
