I started my account 3 weeks ago and I have grinded like crazy and now see what I got from a free enraged crystal from the raid event-
Got my first ever 4 star! Although I would have liked a 3 star hot rod more because personally I find mixmaster a little bit trashy- I can't play with him that well- Any tips?

(He used to be a massive chump, but he's easily as good as IH now)
Practice his concussive block as much as possible (many people here call it "parry" because it works the same way parry works in mcoc - you can even watch vids about how to parry in mcoc in order to learn how to use Mix in TFTF - "Dorky Diggity Dave" had some great tips on that.
Once you can use concussive block reliably, Mix becomes a monster. You don't really notice it much, but matches end very suddenly with him!
His sp2 is devastating. Try to get a burn debuff from his ranged attack - it turns all his attacks to crits (every single single one) including his sp attacks. That's when you wanna strike.
Unfortuntely, concussive block requires the sig to be unlocked. I think Mix is a bit weak without that.
Personally, I think concussive should be made baseline (maybe without the damage and just the ability to gain stacks from timed blocking) as it's fairly integral to the play style.
FYI again: he's weak in every sense. There are just a handful of bots with evasion ability whom he can counter with deceleration, but a Warrior who never bleeds? Sad.
I'm crap at blocking (I find evading much easier - I always seem to be late with the block), so Mix's sig means nothing for me.
But his SP2 damage coupled with the burn debuff is awesome and much harder to evade than Ironhide's SP2. Mix appears weak, but he can end fights really quickly
There's nothing quick about mix. Without his sig he's just too slow.
He needs max buffs just to comparable with normal Ironhide..
Because all the buffs you have to wait a minute for, ironhide simply has the same kind of buffs as baseline, plus he has a much higher base attack, so all your attacks during that 60 seconds of waiting has done far more damage with ironhide.
