Votes for Tough As Nails
- I can understand Space's logic, certainly. What concerns me here is that even if Gravity tries to play tactically, its sheer raw power may ironically be its undoing. I saw at least one point in the Dutch rumble where Gravity tried to get a flip on TAN, but missed and that caused the robot to fire its whole front off the ground. Gravity only needs to make one mistake and TAN can take advantage...and knowing just how big of a threat Gravity is, it won't let go if it can avoid it. CrashBash (talk) 11:00, March 27, 2020 (UTC)
- TAN is far too awkward a shape for Gravity to get a good flip on, especially one that'll KO it over the wall. Tough As Nails needs to be outpushed to lose, and Gravity really isn't a good enough pusher to do that, especially as its shape means it can't even find itself gripped well enough to push back. TAN will do what it easily did in the World Champ qualifier and just scoop Gravity up from the side and feed it into the pit. With a pit release button that just opens the pit, Tough As Nails has a very easy route for all its tactics that can't really be faulted. Jimlaad43(talk) 11:47, March 27, 2020 (UTC)

- Yeah, I can definitely understand Gravity faring better second time around. However, in practice, I just can't justify it myself, the ground clearance is just too high, and one missed flip will be very quickly pounced on, allowing the usual Tough as Nails grab and pit win.

- I see little reason to change what we saw happen in real life. Toon Ganondorf (t c) 03:23, March 28, 2020 (UTC)
- Jim providing evidence against my major qualm, means I now feel justified in voting for TaN. Adster1005 13:57, March 28, 2020 (UTC)

Votes for Gravity
- Ah, here we go again, SpaceManiac888 voting against what happened in real-life. Hear me out once more; I think NJGW back in Heat D, Heat Final, was onto something. I could not back him the first-time, as the first encounter was not a rematch. But now, his reasoning makes a lot of sense. Gravity is not going to hold back this time, like it did in that fateful three-way melee; rather, it is going to pull out all the stops to avoid Tough As Nails pushing the pit button. If Tough As Nails starts by attempting to press the pit button, Gravity is going to charge, get underneath at the back, and throw its opponent out of the arena. Therefore, Tough As Nails probably won't do that, knowing the risks, and so meet Gravity in the middle of the arena in an attempt to trap its opponent. This time, with no pit to worry about (for now, at least), Gravity won't be quite as affected by its opponent's grabs, and its flips are going to be the main talking point here. And any time Tough As Nails charges towards the pit button, either Gravity is going to throw Tough As Nails out of the arena, OR, do whatever it takes to push Tough As Nails away from it, as if it was preventing Thanos from obtaining the Gauntlet. This therefore reminds me of Eruption's win over Carbide... Eruption knows its opponent's tactics, and is just so aggressive it prevents its opponent from properly tackling it. Gravity to win via an out of the arena or Jury's decision. SpaceManiac888 (Talk) 10:56, March 27, 2020 (UTC)
- Call me mad but I think Space is on to something here. This resembles Tough as Nails' heat final against Robochicken- a fight in which Tough as Nails only got to the pit release button after at least a minute, and I think only then because Robochicken's gas had run low and Tough as Nails wasn't in much danger of going out of the arena. With a broader, more explosive flipper (and with no gas leak) Gravity should be able to extend that first period when Tough as Nails can't reach the release button- and let's not forget that Robochicken wasn't a million miles away from throwing Tough as Nails out itself; if Gravity gets to Tough as Nails' rear in the same way it's going out. Combatwombat555 (talk) 16:23, March 27, 2020 (UTC)
- You gotta remember, though, TAN wasn't running all that right against Robochicken because its aerial got knocked off. The team admitted they were having a hard time controlling it (and the fact it then subsequently won is just amazing to me), so that may justify a few things. CrashBash (talk) 17:06, March 27, 2020 (UTC)
- Yeah, I'm going Gravity once again. Space has covered me for the explanation side. NJGW (talk) 19:47, March 27, 2020 (UTC)
My main problem is that when Gravity rears up, will Tough as Nails be able to grab it. After going back and forth, I think there is a low chance that TaN won't be able to grab it. Therefore, I think Space is right and will vote fo Gravity. Adster1005 20:09, March 27, 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, because it did in the 3WC Qualifier. It just used the claw as a scoop to shove Gravity back and into the pit. The flipper is useless if perched on top of the opponent. Jimlaad43(talk) 20:41, March 27, 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks. Adster1005 13:57, March 28, 2020 (UTC)
