Strategy[]
Commander[]
Meet Sunstreaker, the only Brawler who can evade and the only Bot who cannot inflict Debuffs! The two states of Sunstreaker are a double-sided coin, granting him either evade and armor or melee and an Unstoppable buff, with an empty state the middle of his health.
With Pristine Armor he can passively absorb some damage at high health, then at low health actively gain emergency Armor with special 2 or 3.
With Blemished Unstoppable he can go on the offensive racking two melee combos or escaping enemy locking him in. He can actively be Unstoppable at high health with Special 1 or 3, and then passively at low health.
In the typical Brawler fashion Sunstreaker is a Melee and Armor kinda guy who can also... purify his own debuffs on ranged attacks? This only works on successful shots, and only a fifth the time, so it's not a reliable purifying skill compared to other Brawlers.
Upgrading to the Premium Model grants him permanent buffs - both of which can stack up to a permanent 100% boost for either armor or melee! This is most useful in long fights.
Opponent[]
As you whittle his health down he'll become Unstoppable at three conditions, but otherwise it'll be relatively easy to doge long-reach melee attacks and scratch him up.
Strong Match-ups[]
Bots[]
Sunstreaker’s Armor will make it harder for Warriors to land their big damage attacks, and Evades can help Sunstreaker avoid Bleed damage.
- Bludgeon - No hit? No problem!... if Bludgeon can land the Metallikato, something Sunstreaker can avoid with evasion and armor.
- Drift - In this duel of the sports cars, it's easily obvious who lands the most Bleeds against Sunstreaker will lose; he will easily best Drift in this case.
- Cliffjumper relies on debuffs to make his Special Attacks more effective, something Sunstreaker can't inflict any which is a good counter.
Mods[]
- Mod Name - sentence.
Weak Match-ups[]
Bots[]
Sunstreaker relies on his Melee Buffs and Armor, which Tacticians can easily remove or ignore.
- Hot Rod - This... is a double-edge. One one hand there's the all-important Deceleration that removes the evasion, but the other lies the class bonus. But then again, Hot Rod doesn't inflict bleed debuffs...
- Cyclonus - You'd be thinking Sunstreaker will be appreciating himself more against this spawn of Unicron, but nope! Straight outta the edge of the galaxy, with a sword that pierces his armor and a Dark Field that can cancel the unstoppable buff, Sunstreaker has met his match.
Mods[]
- Mod Name - sentence.
Recommended Modules[]
- Repair Module - A repair right at 60% or 40% will re-activate the state buffs.
- Security Module - puckers up Armor Buffs and extends expiring ones.
Obtainment[]
- Vainglorious Crystal
- Login calendar
- 5-Star Bot bundle

Trivia[]
- Sunstreaker is based on the Universe 2008 Deluxe toy, a remodeling of his brother Sideswipe with the torso reversed.
- He has a gun-sword from his Combiner Wars toy, an accessory carried over as a redeco of Breakdown.
- His gun is an engine block, inspired by his Earthrise toy accessory.
- Sunstreaker has two unique melee sequence Special Attacks but re-uses Drift's Special 3 animation.
- The Magnificent Six Synergy he has is a pretty interesting homage, having seen a one-time appearance in the British run of the Marvel The Transformers comics, complete with synergy between Jazz, Prowl and Wheeljack.
