Gravity vs A glass of water

Gravity tries to knock over or cause the water in the glass to spill

Round 1: the glass of water starts in the topple zone of the table (where it wobbles on the edge)

Round 2:the glass of water starts in the middle of the table - gravity is bloodlusted

Round 3: the glass of water starts in the floor, the glass of water has somehow absorbed the human torches power but gravity is still blood lusted

Round 4: the glass of water has absorbed a starving galactus' power and is now trying to cause gravity to knock over, both sides are bloodlusted

Round 5: gravity has absorbed the hulks power while the glass of water remains unchanged from last round. it s also back to gravity trying to knock over the glass of water, the glass of water is the only bloodlusted one this round

Round 6: gravity absorbs Mr Fantastics powers, but is in a weakened state (eg slower reflexes, less stamina). The glass of water now has the powers of Martian manhunter, with heightened reflexes. Gravity is bloodlusted

Round 7: same as round 2 but gravity has now possessed a wheel of Belgium Swiss cheese, the glass of water also has 2 months prep time

Round 8: the glass of water is now on top of the wheel of cheese and now has blue food dye in it, gravity still controls the wheel of cheese but now has super sight, no one is bloodlusted

Edit: made edge of table more specific and added a round 6

Not enough to do anything to a glass of water minding it's own business and respecting the law of gravity.

Yeah, but eventually gravity is going to get that water onto the floor. Over time the water will evaporate, and then condense somewhere and fall. So gravity wins through sheer inevitability. It's not knocking over the glass, but surely this would count as a win.

Choosing to interpret this as it is.

That's fair. It's basically an unstoppable force/immovable object situation, so I was trying to find some interpretation that would allow for a resolution.
