Can somebody give me a physics explanation as to how Circle Survivor Engine Gear Right works when with the Slow Release base? How does the wider circle surrounding the engine gear itself help to slow down and turn the EG into a continuous release? I really need this answered ASAP. If someone could simply just give me a physics principle/subject area to work with here, that would be great as well.
Quite simply, the base pushes the clutch in so the EG is always active. You know what happens when two same-spin beys hit right? They push each other backwards. That's the same direction that charges the EG. So, every hit just charges up the Engine, which then rotates forward, and spins longer. The hits charge the EG.
That said, it actually works better against left spin, where the lack of resistance just pushes the circle survivor around, more, making it extremely difficult to steal any spin from, or at least, steal any more spin than you give to the CEW part.
Against the same spin direction, being hit still slows you down, and as such, Circle Survive loses to a lot of random things in the same spin direction, most of those being things with decent stamina.
Also, Final Clutch Bases, once activated, do the same thing as the Normal Base (AKA No Clutch, AKA Instant Clutch, AKA Slow Release AKA A billion other names jesus christ).
Oh, as for why it works defensively: The round shape and relatively free spin means it works like a perfect SAR. It has such a good shape, being almost completely round other than three small indents that help steal spin, unlike other large free spinning parts, that it doesn't take hits heavily, and the small hits it takes only move it back slightly, not enough to cause major resistance. These things come together to mean it is harder to KO than basically anything else, ever, given the right WD and AR.
Everyone is like "oh no bearing eg it's not a wolborg", but actually, it'll outspin any wolborg SG zombie you put it up against, if they're in the opposite spin, because they can't steal its spin effectively, it has awesome stamina, and as they topple, the free spinning, round sg part doesn't let them steal enough spin to OS it. The "hits charge the SP" thing, as well as the "hitting me in opposite spin just pushes me around more" means it actually carries on the tradition of wolborgs, just in a different, yet outrageously effective direction.

How long should the shine last for?
There are far too many variables involved to answer that at all. Once it tarnishes, just brasso it up again.... Seriously...
