So you mean like last year, when alliances were stuck if they had three frontfield bots?

Anyways, just like last year, you'd be operating at 1/3 efficiency. And it wouldn't happen in elimination if teams chose wisely. Probably the tasks would be similar enough that robots could reasonably do all three, but in order to excel at one they'd have to sacrifice efficiency on the other two.
