    Basically, this guy beats the crap out of nearly all the Autobots in the game. I can already hear people wanting to nerf him.

    Please specify what Ground Vehicles are. Do they include any beastformer? And is Galvatron a ground vehicle?

    How the heck do you classify an animal as a vehicle? And canons that don't move for that matter?

    So the potency of his melee buff is the only thing that changes based on his rank

    That's the problem man. I tried Cheetor's heavy and he blocked. Well?

    So far he’s blocking all heavy attacks for me, and that’s how it should be.

    Even from jets (Windblade, Ramjet)?

    As much as I can understand from his defense ability, it can be classified into two groups
    ->FIRST GROUP: any transformer whose alt mode allows him to fly can't be block by thundercracker like waspinator, megatronus, ramjet etc.
    ->OTHER GROUP: any trnsformer whose alt mode does not allow him to fly can be block by thundercracker like mv megatron, ironhide, optimus prime(any).
    Hope this will help you to understand

    Also physical heavy attacks, my G1 prime just slapped his shins and took it like a boss

    Any cybertronian who cannot fly in their alt mode is considered a “ground vehicle”. Beast formers too.

    I'm not ranking him up just yet, maybe wait for the 5* opportunity?

    (That and I basically used all my gold on ranking up bumblebee)

    If he can block Scorponok’s and Soundwave’s heavies, that’ll be cool.

    Maybe All Melee Attack alt forms are considered Ground. Although it sounds wierd

    Of course I haven’t fought those 2 yet. Will report back as soon as I face them.

    He cannot block Jetfire's heavy. So I think it's those who fly.

    @Kabam Vydious will there be a new special bot mission like the Thunder Struck every month ? If so what an amazing way to feature new bots and get amazing rewards

    Then you re misinterpreting the word 'anniversary', as in année (year in French).

    Wow really?? Lol. Aside from the fact that Beasts aren't vehicles (unless people ride around on Cheetahs and Rhinos) Cheetor is airborne for his heavy.

    You never know, people ride around on horses, elephants, and donkeys. Maybe they did cheetahs and rhinos too at one point. HAHAHA

    Just went to check this with my 3 Star Cheetor and saw that he did indeed block it. Huh, that's really odd, even more odd since Cheetor flies.

    Also, I apologize if I sounded aggressive. I don't know what came over me.

    Yes, I did notice that he was able to block grounded ranged attacks, which I do find odd. I do wish to find out the other people he can counter as well What makes it more odd is that Megatron G1 relies on his heavy attack for his abilities and he's a Tactician, so it's odd that Thundercracker counters him.

    Tbh, I feel like the block should work for grounded Melee heavies, rather than ranged.

    Yeah, Soundwave has a hard time getting power whereas he... is neither vehicle nor transforms.

    So Megatron can't fuse his debuffs against Thundercracker's block?

    As your last sentence mentions I can see a Brawler potentially having a physical melee advantage against a bot, but not against ranged attacks. So Starscream's ranged heavy works but not Megatron's?
