A 4th bot at IRI is an early second-round pick at worst anywhere else.


I do know of some cases of an AC sitting out, but the one I most remember happened back in the 2v2, 3/alliance days when the AC swapped out with the 3rd robot and the 2nd robot played every match. That one resulted in a regional win (AZ '04).
