What does it mean to play as a "backup attacker" in AW??

I joined a Silver 1 alliance last week and I've been told to play as backup, other members were assigned specific paths. What does that even mean.

Could also be that they want to assess you (being a new member) before starting to give you a lane of your own.
(and FYI, the common reference for lane #’s are numbering them from leftmost to rightmost)
My main purpose is boss island and having a diverse roster helps with that.
As planning a team for a path and boss island is tricky, based on too many defenders interaction with nodes.
This way, my team members only have to plan team around their 5-6 alloted fight on their paths.
Back-up clears 1 side of mini bosses and boss and rest 9 decide who clears rest of mini bosses based on champs they bring.
Rarely we get stuck on boss island due to not having a good counter for boss island.
When there's a clog in AW toilet, they send in the backup attacker to clear it.
