What is the most effective hard hitting lineup?

I'm currently in possession of a good majority of 4* bots...only missing a few, and I just got my first 5* Bad Cop:)
What is your absolute favorite battle group? I know the Beast Lineup is super effective, as is Sword Master's. I'll be building mine around Shockwave and Barricade, so I have a little adjusting to do.... because out of all the great bots, I'm missing Ratchet:(
He's my unicorn.

I have the Bayverse decepticons (Megatron, Bonecrusher, Grindor, and Barricade). Works well. But I’m not sure any one synergy is better than another. You just have to have the right bots. I use Prowl or G1 Megatron as my 5th but not much synergy there. If I had MV1 he would make a better 5th, but I have drawn 50+ 4* crystals and still no luck.
Motormaster, OPL
Windblade
Bonecrusher
Soundwave
Dinobot, OG Prime
IH
either they have high output, decent AI or high error-tolerance. When you're fighting Hard mode (or expert) or in the Arena, they save you a lot of time than that permanently shooting Mirage.
Shockwave
Barricade
G1 Megatron (tactical)
Movietron (demo)
Grindor or MV1 Prime
The shockwave /G1 Megatron synergy is incredible.
Barricade and Grindor synergize with each other, and with Movietron.
If you don't go with Grindor, MV1 Prime still has a synergy available with Movietron.
I've compiled a list of potential teams and their respective synergies towards each other and in the process of re-evaluating some of them. You may have a look.
Interesting choices.
On team 7, you can also replace Scout Bee with Galvatron as an option since many players don't have him.
Galvatron synergizes well with UM and Grimlock.
Then you should also consider Bonecrusher as your warrior for when you need one. He also synergizes with Movietron.
G1 megatron
Motormaster
Shockwave
Soundwave
Kickback
Megatron (G1)
Optibotimus (G1)
Ironhide
Bludgeon
Windblade/Ratchet (depends how tough the mission is)
My B team:
Ironhide
Stars cream
Bludgeon
Windblade
Soundwave
Team seven, scout bumblebee could be replaced with prowl, who will give the full team an armour buff through synergy with UM. Personal choice as either are good but I’d take prowl for the power control option if needed from a scout
I'm just curious mate, thats a pretty solid list but why did you put Dinobot there in league with OG? Is it just to activate windblades swordmaster?
Dinobot shines when autofighting, he's passive, he makes use of that lame block armor break and block damage.
Drift
Windy
Dino
Wasp
Primal
B-squad:
Mirage
Hot rod
Barricade
Grindor
Movie megs(demo)
Raid squad/utility
Soundwave sig 100 max forge
Ironhide
Mv1
OGP
Those are some of my best...my best bot is mirage and prowl is number 4 I think
I think Arcee is very underestimated. She's fast AF and has crazy high damage.
She’s a beast with headshots, she’s just too much shooty shooty for me
don't feel so pressured to do that. 4* are still MUCH more useful than 5* right now, and it will be that way for some time. Not only is it harder to rank and dupe a 5* but remember that lower ranks = lower abilities. So even if your R1 Barricade has the same power level as an r4 4*, he will have much weaker abilities.
That's actually a really good point. His stats are strong as a 5* but not being duped...ya know.
So I'd honestly do the traditional OGP/Ratchet synergy but alas, Nurse Ratchet is my unicorn. Still hasnt reported for duty except in a 3* form.
Windblade
Drift
Dinobot
Primal
Waspinator
Rhinox
Sub out the least needed 6th as map dictates.
Team 1: Dream Team
Ultra Magnus
Arcee(MIA)
Prowl
Mirage
Grimlock
Team 2: OG Deceptigoons
OG Meg
Screamer
Shockwave
Ramjet
Motormaster/Bludgeon/Kickback(pick poison for whatever you're running)
Team 3: OG Prime/Ratchet
OG Prime
Ratchet(MIA)
Mirage
Prowl
Hot Rod/IH - Hot Rod has better synergy with Prowl and Mirage while IH has the burst.
Lot's of good teams out there now.
But... starting with prime and ironhide with ratchet, at least any other autobot would get a buff. For both arcee and ratchet, probably....
Prime og
Ratchet
Ironhide
Prime mv1
Arcee
Prowl
Sub out the unneeded as not needed? Most of the other arcee teams, because she has others, would Frankenstein/ force her together with ratchet... because she likes mirage better. That's probably the best arcee/ ratchet lineup. Or the scout could be windblade, but that doesn't combine with team 2 not overlapping with swordmaster/ Beast team. Also if you did this you'd definitely overlap with whatever mirage teams, but if you HAD to do ratchet and arcee, this would be it.
And after I thought all that out I hadn't registered that's not what you meant by missing arcee and ratchet. Lol. Ah well, still leaving anyway as best ratchet/ arcee team.
