Strategy

Commander

Skywarp has vera unique trait of having two modes of special attacks for his first two specials. Without any Teleport Charges he uses the standard Starscream/Thundercracker special attacks but with Charges he has unique melee attacks. The Teleport Special Attacks are most useful for Power Locking 50/50 and other tertiary benefits. Special 1 is useful for draining Power on successful blasts. Confusingly, his Power Burn Buff appears as a red Power Rate Down on his HUD. Special 2 gives a good crit-damage-reduction Shield buff. Special 3 is for stealing Power and even gains a permanent buff!

Charges are also a great failsafe in the chances you get tagged by enemy Special Attacks, and in case he doesn't a Special Attack Debuff mitigates some damage.

Opponent

Skywarp is relatively easy to fight and dodge. Keep in mind as enemies gain slightly more Power than you he's likely to use a ranged Special 1 at the beginnings of a fight before He gets a Charge. It is annoying when he automatically teleports away from your hard-hitting Specials, so try to bait out Teleport Attacks and use high crit rate bots to remove Charges.

Strong Match-ups

Bots

• Skywarp is a nightmare to most Demolitions bots, with his ability to reduce Special Attack Damage and drain Power. His Signature Ability will be particularly annoying for Demo bot who deal big damage on the last hit of their Special Attacks.
• Thundercracker - Thundercracker will find his brother-in-arms to be his worst nightmare as he can't land Critical Hits. However, don't get hit by Melee Attacks.

Mods

• Mod Name - sentence.

Weak Match-ups

Bots

• Skywarp has a chance to lose Teleport charges when he is hit by Critical Hits, especially against Scouts. They can also block or drain Power, preventing Skywarp from using his Teleport attacks.
• Hot Rod - Hot Rod will find Skywarp's Signature Ability to be a minor nuisance.
