Which Combiner is the most Powerful

[Rev]

I still say Predaking. Then

Bruticus. He's made of army equipment and bred for fighting
Superion. He's made of jets. Which are huge and fast.
Devastator. Huge construction equipment but slow.
Menasor. Ittle bitty cars on a tractor trailer... Small and fast.
Defensor. Lame little brother.

once it runs out(which won't take long)....dead muttons

Poor Defensor, nobody picked him even though he did destroy Bruticus with one blast from his gun in the G1 episode called B.O.T. so he's not a complete lame-o at least IMHO.

Going by G1 show logic...

Devastator>Menasaur>Superion=Bruticus>Defensor

LOL

People seem to have different interpretations of "powerful".

"Strength is more than physical", as Springer would say.

My interpretation would put emphasis on intelligence, cunning, and wisdom... hence, I would pick Devastator, and consider Computron a close second. (A calculated course of action is not always the best course of action).

In a 1-vs-1 round robin/playoff "cage" match tournament on a neutral uninhabited planet of various terrains and environments (Class M, to borrow from Star Trek), I think Devastator would have the strength, intelligence, and resourcefulness to win.

Except Devastator has a 2 for Intelligence, he is literally as dumb as soup.

I don't consider the techSpec ratings much. In the G1 cartoon and Marvel comic, the Constructicons accomplished quite a bit. So, yes, I am considering that the combiner is also able to break into their component bots to engage in battle or other works as part of combat.

Devastator is also pretty dumb (mentally) in the cartoon and the comics as well.

Oh, okay.

I mean, don't get me wrong, I am a huge Devastator advocate for him being the best combiner. I do think he's the most powerful after Predaking.
