T O R Q U E was a Heavyweight HS built by Gigafrost, and used in RAW. T O R Q U E was thought of as an early favorite, but many glaring problems where also pointed out. The DSA armor, a big no-no for DSL, was used, giving really weak armor to T O R Q U E, and it also used flipper segments to get the hammers lower. Very exposed flipper segments. These flipper segments fall off easily and put T O R Q U E off balance. T O R Q U E was eaten up in every fight in the first round against the Hum-Drums, when the quick multi-bot tore up T O R Q U E's underside in all three matches. It then lost in a closer match to Classy paintjob. T O R Q U E did help though in propelling the Hum-Drums to the Fan Favorite award.
