Y.V. vs Nuclear Plague

Post by V900 » Sat Aug 03, 2019 8:58 pm

Nuclear Plague is one word off of this being a canon matchup.

Y.V. (anti-spinner plow)
Speed: 8
Torque: 3
Traction: 7
Armor: 10 (+3 plow)
Weapon: 2
Nuclear Plague
Speed: 5
Weapon: 12
Armor: 9 (+2 wedge)
Traction: 3
Torque: 1
* I have a significant speed advantage and an additional traction advantage. While this isn't something one typically states in a plow vs spinner match, NP's weapon requires it to wedge it's opponent before the drum can be brought into play.

* My plow takes no damage from NP's spinner. If NP wedges me and the bottom of my plow is hit, it will not take damage. There's a generous amount of room between my plow and the front wheel, meaning I will have ample time to react if such a thing happens.

Strategy:

* Aim to swerve around the wedgelets. Be as patient as I want. If he wants to spend half the match turning in place, that's his MO and I'll win the aggression + strategy JD. Wallslam if (read: when) I get under.
basically aim for these

* If he decides to suddenly go all full-aggression, pull back and search around for more openings to angle into those outermost front panels. His wedgelets are placed VERY narrowly together, and I have 175% his speed. This is more than doable.

* If he decides to pull back and play defensive, follow and continue drifting around 3-5 feet away from him. Again, 175% speed. Go fast and eat his ass.

* If he manages to get under me, pull the fuck outta there. If he obliterates my front wheel, pull back and use my rear 2 wheels to act as a standard 2WD wedge. Be more cautious toward getting outwedged. Losing my front wheel will not totally compromise my driving.

uhhhh just go full aggro, angle in and try to hit something vulnerable. don't drive like a dumbass. jhook away if he gets under, before he can get that lifter into play. watch for him to angle past my forks, reverse and try to get a better angle. his wedge is very steep so it'll be hard for him to really take control if he does get under, so dont get aggressive and over-extend. i just need to use the drum to pull him up past the armored portion and into the juicy insides so i want to play super aggressive and keep him in the air for as long as possible
