Who is the best Decepticon combiner? This is a fight t othe finish, no weapons, no uncombining.

Bruticus is most likely to be the best.

He's not a clutz like Devastator, and he doesn't argue with his counterparts like Menasor.

Being composed of military like 'Cons, Bruticus would be able to analyse the situation at hand and devise some sort of plan to defeat the other 2 gestalts.

I'd LOVE to give this to Menasor, but being mentally unstable, he just wouldn't be able to concentrate enough to finish the job.

*Sighs* Why'd you have to let me down, Menasor?

Devastator is the least advanced os he'll go down before the other two. This fight could potentially go either way for Menasor or Bruticus.

I'll vote Bruticus, I think that he'll outlast Menasor.

For me it was toss up between Bruticus and Menasor. But I think Bruticus has more sheer firepower than the two combined, giving him the edge in this 3-way battle.

ill go with menasor. devastator is powerful, but too slow and awkward. and i think bruticus is too slow mentally go do well in a 3 way fight. after fighting someone slow like devastator i think it would take him a while to adapt to fighting someone as brutal and unrelenting as menasor.

bruticus is great at doing a single thing, given an order he will just go and go until its done, but if the situation changes he has no ability to change along with it and alter his tactics, he needs to be given new orders to be effective. i think the different styles menasor and devastator have will be enough to throw him off his game for a few seconds, and as menasor showed in starscreams brigade, thats all it takes for him to score a win.

I believe Menasor will win this especially since there no weopons involved, Devastator as powerful as he is is still less advanced and fairly easy to trip up and would be the first to go down in battle. Bruticus while probably the stronger between himself and Menasor is too one tract minded and doesn't adjust well to changing tactics while Menasor rage and fuel lust far out weighs his fellow cons and his unpredictable nature in combat gives him an edge that Bruticus just cant match. So in my opinion Menasor wins this one.

Didn't this happen in the show??

As I remember, Bruticus schooled Devastator but Menasor showed up and beat the tar out of Bruticus.

Menasor I guess.

Do you mean that episode Starscream's Brigade, TP?

Menasor pretty much jumped off some cliff, and going with all that speed and velocity, blah blah blah...

Yeah, he hit him pretty good. lol And caused Bruticus to separate.

No weapons and no uncombining flaws :-?

Shockwave said Menasor was beyond Devestator, but without the fire power i doubt he'ld say the same for Bruticus.

If inherent abilities are also used, Bruticus looses his shooting arm anyway (swindle neutralized by breakdown)

Menasor is just too durable and relentless up close.

Well, I'm gonna go with Bruticus.
Onslaught's quite a strategist.
Devastator doesn't have much brains, Menasor is too savage.....
Bruticus FTW!

Sure, Bruticus should dominate with his military discipline and superior firepower. However, Devastator would have the blueprints of the other two (Constructicon database) and would shoot them in their weak spots with his 10,000 degree blaster. As long as they're close enough, Bruticus and Menasor will lose.
