By adding CPU opponents in Blast Network, it'd be possible for a lone player to start a game without others. I say Blast Network specifically instead of Lockdown because BN is a simple game and it'd be easy to make the AI. The AI wouldn't need to be good, the purpose is just to get a game started. The minimum viable implementation would be a shufflebot moving back and forth along the same lane dropping bombs once in a while. Have 3 of them and it'd probably make for a decent game.

By doing this, it'd be easier to build momentum for the Blast Network playerbase. Nobody starts a BN game because they don't know how long they'd have to wait for other players to join them. With this feature, it'd possible to play Blast Network while waiting for other players to play Blast Network with.

An additional, and possibly more important use, of the feature is to let players earn Krogmo coins and craft Electron Vortex without needing to use Lockdown. Reasons people might want to avoid Lockdown could be because they dislike the notoriously rude people who play it, or because they're playing during a time of day when there arent enough opponents available to start a game.
