Scorponok's heal and backfire CONTROLS every fight he's in. Even Relic of Obedience can't stop it. Even with just one venom charge, no matter how strong your bot is, your basic and heavy attacks will only deal 1% damage, because the rest is healed in an instant. Cyclonus nullifies any buff with his dark pulse, including Feral Strike. Mixmaster and Ramjet have little chance against him. And I'm sure there's been discussion already about a power reduction on Tronus. At least make Obedience ineffective against Tech bots.

I do agree with your take on Cyclonus. That bot is a pain.
btw, how do you dodge his heavy when you're up against the wall? backstep or sidestep? or just face it like a man?
Well-timed sidestep. IT'S easier than dodging Soundwave's but still hard.
This probably sounds a little reckless but lately I’ve been trying out some new wall maneuvers. Obviously you try to avoid being there altogether but when it’s gets dicey and the game is moving quickly, I now just launch my SP. When it works, you feel like you just gave the game AI a dose of their own medicine. It’s fun too. A good example is when your back foot gets “stuck” on a wall edge as you back step. When that happens I hit the SP and the AI almost always walks into it cuz they know your foot got stuck.
Scorponok is not that hard too, just don't go for basic attacks.. basic attack is just for collecting power for specials. With DoT ranged heavies and specials.. he is not that bad Cyclonus is similar to him, just need a ranged heavy bot to keep the distance, and do bleed/burn/nullify/shock or need a power control bot like Shockwave, Mirage, Soundwave or Rhinox or Kickback to keep his power bar under the limit
No. That ability of tronus is pretty useful at a relatively high sig. Not allowing the opponent to get any buffs for that amount of time is great. No, megatronus shouldn't be nerfed. He's fine.
Seriously tho even at max sig scorp only heals 65% of the damage, that's okayish cus your SP damage is still counts fully.
Also @Vinod_7991 please try a duped grimlock against scorp when you have 3 backfires on him
Mv1 isn't the best counter to scorp just cus he's got class advantage doesnt make him a better choice 😛
Cheetor owns scorponok even with disadvantage. Easypeasy
No healing for scorpie during the fight when you spam sp1. Even scorponok on tech module is a quick fight for cheetor
on the first or second range? I assume the second?
The thing I dislike about fighting a "gamemode" Scorp is that it's built to be so tanky and those venom charges are going to build up...then as you near the end of the fight...you make a bad move or get a lag, bam, 10 stacks of charges on you.
Too Op.
Scorponok with his Regenerative Toxin need to be finished fast. Grimlock’s damage output is way less than that of MV Prime’s and Tantrum’s. If you keep hitting weak melees onto Scorpy, he keeps getting his health back. What a dragging game that would be. Also, a player who knows how to dodge Scorpy doesn’t need to worry about his abilities in the first place..
I beat the starting scorp on tebal raptor 6 with just a 4K duped Grimlock...trust me, Grim Is a great option...Build power, SP3, repeat
🤷♂️
"I care not if this is the wrong thread, but mighty Megatron needs a buff, you disgusting flesh creatures"
PS - Give him his jet form. If you won't add new bots, maybe give the old ones new attacks/abilities/rebalances, ala Street Fighter 2 Turbo.
Hound
Are my boys to be buffed and the only one's IMO (with the exception of Dinobot's special 3)
Or scorp vs scorp. It’s easy enough to avoid getting hit with his heavy!
Cyclonus, spam those ranged heavies!
