The Maverick. Don't think the Mako, Tyrant, Scandal, Paradox Trilogy, Tyrant Pearl, or Maverick Pearl could fit. Still not sure that's a big enough hole to warrant getting a Maverick to fill it though.

The Scandal may also fit, though the difference would be in the overall shape of the ball motion, and could also compliment the Maverick and slot under the Gauntlet. With the Scandal being symmetric, you'll get a more controlled motion of the ball just by nature of it being symmetric compared to the Maverick, which is asymmetric, and both being solids. However, both are a LOT of ball, and to add the Gauntlet on top of that makes it really top heavy with a very little to no hole at all to be filled, and also with nothing much in the MP range to use for a benchmark.

To me there isn't much of a gap between the Gauntlet and Scandal Pearl as i feel those are pretty good compliments to each other.

You're splitting hairs and you'll have overlap one way or another. The Maverick Pearl might be closest to splitting the two, it just depends on how the strength of the cover relates to the Gauntlet and Scandal Pearl

I forgot about the Dark Legend Solid. That might fit between the Gauntlet and Scandal Pearl. Well, at least as much as it can fit in such a small slot.
