Strategy[]
Player[]
Megatron is an formidable figure in the Fight. Fusing debuffs which impair his enemies while stealing their Buffs. Bots who love to generate Buffs like Mixmaster and Cheetor will quickly find that their advantage will be taken away from them. Commanders then can add more to that via Synergies. However evade and unstoppable buffs are tricky to steal from as the opponent can counterattack before it can be stolen.
An awakened Megatron is extremely effective in raids as the buffs that the mods generate to enhance the bot’s abilities will be taken away from them. Certain ullity mods like the cycle resist will have those buffs stolen over and over again.
It is best to save your charged Fusion Cannon shots or have all three charged by the time Megatron uses a successful Special Attack so he can fuse debuffs soon after. Fuse an Armor Break first so Megatron can take advantage of an opponent's buffs. A good way to land a charge is to keep hitting while the opponent is blocking, then fire a heavy hit.
You can actually fuse a Shock debuff inflicted with Megatron's Special III and even steal buffs while your opponent is blocking!
Opponent[]
Megatron will constantly try to hit you with his Heavy Attacks when his Fusion Cannon reaches its Full Power state. Make sure to pay attention and dodge them and be careful not to get debuffs to be fused or your buffs will be stolen and used against you. A fused shock debuff is a death sentence unless you are using a bot who can purify Damaging debuffs like Grimlock.
Strong Match-ups[]
- Anyone with buffs - An awakened Megatron will steal buffs from bots especially those who loves generating them.
- Brawlers – Megatron will rip through Brawlers like Grindor who generate Armor to protect themselves. With his Signature Ability awakened, Megatron will also steal their buffs to boost his own abilities.
- Optimus Prime (GS) – Megatron will gain Unstoppable at low health whenever knocked down. This may punish commanders that rely too much on the Autobot Leader’s Roll Out ability. Let the battle of the leaders begin!
- Rhinox - The Decepticon leader can steal Rhinox's shield buffs, reducing damage further. This goes for other Tech bots with shield buffs too.
- Cheetor - Cheetor requires constant buffs to stay on top, some that Megatron would love to steal.
- Wheeljack - Megatron can steal Wheeljack’s force shield buffs when he fuses debuffs especially a Shock Debuff which will ignore the Force Shield.
- Megatron (ROTF) - Despite the class type advantage, the original Megatron can steal Megatron’s unstoppable buffs if he fuses a debuff. He can also prevent Megatron from coming back by stealing his regenerative buff and the original Megatron will be hailed instead.
- Grimlock - The king will be crushed by his own melee buffs.
Mods []
- Most Mods - Mods generate buffs to toughen bots and an awakened megatron will take the advantage to steal the buffs the mods generate that enhances the bots’ abilities.
Weak Match-ups[]
- Scouts - Megatron will have a hard time hitting Scouts because of their evade buffs and if he does he will have an even harder time stealing their buffs allowing the Scouts to easily build up their buffs without them getting stolen.
- Soundwave – Megatron relies on his powerful Fusion Cannon to get through his fights, having his powerful shots reflected back by a Sonic Shield will put a damper on Megatron's plans. He will constantly say “you dare betray me?” or “you will regret that!” whenever he is knocked down even by his most loyal lieutenant Soundwave even though he can steal his buffs
- Jetfire - Like Soundwave, a well timed block will put a damper on Megatron's plans especially if his fusion cannon reaches full power
- Shockwave - The decepticon scientist only comes with Undos and Energy charges and doesn’t generate buffs which Megatron has no answer to.
- Galvatron – With no buffs to steal, and no armor to break, Galvatron will show Megatron the difference Unicron's assistance can make.
- Cyclonus - Megatron tends to become unstoppable whenever he gets knocked down. This becomes a disadvantage when facing Cyclonus and his dark fields because when he dashes at Cyclonus while unstoppable, he will get severely hampered before he knows it.
- Megatronus - Though the debuffs will still be able to be fused, Megatron will find his namesake needs no buffs to be formidable. The relic of obedience will also prevent Megatron from becoming unstoppable whenever knocked down.
- Kickback - A T-clog combined with Megatron's tendency to fire a Heavy while at Full Charge will severly hamper him. No more Debuffs left to be fused and other buffs to be stolen.
Recommended Modules[]
- Paralyzer – The Paralyzer's ability to Stun the opponent after a special Attack will leave them vulnerable to a blast from the Fusion Cannon.
- Transwarp Cell – Getting hit by the Fusion Cannon is bad enough; getting your Power drained at the same time is the quickest way to the scrap pile.
- Robot Resource - A constant flow of power allows Megatron to apply and fuse even more debuffs even shock debuffs!
- Exo-Filter - This mod will make Megatron unstoppable in times when he’s not knocked down
