You're waiting till the last gear? You must be very confident in your defender(s). If I'm otherwise ahead (because I gave up on gears and fueled at 3 rotors), I'd throw 2-3 robots into defense with 3 gears left. If you can lock them down to 3 gears left with 15-20 on the clock, you can pull off and climb with reasonable confidence that they're doomed.
Unless 4 rotors becomes utterly mundane and easily achievable, gear heavy alliances are going to have to get creative to keep opponents in the dark about just how many gears they have remaining.
