Yeah, I can see why you would ask this, but I believe within the circumstances of this game, it would not be a good strategic move to not show up to your match... unless, of course, you were trying to get the opposing alliance to win for some reason (trying to make them lose supercells in their next round, perhaps)? Again, match throwing is frowned upon by most people, and this is putting a lot of thought into this that you could be using to strategize with alliance partners, so I would hope most people opt for the latter option.

Anyway, I still think it would be worth it to find out what happens when a robot is unable to make it to a match, because problems will come up with robots, and not everyone is going to make it to every match. I can't post stuff in the Q&A, can someone else ask this please?
