Bah-weep-graaaaagnah wheep nini bong!As the sole Autobot combiner, Superion has shouldered a heavy burden, while as the sole Decepticon Combiner, Devastator has let his power go straight to his head!

Breaking Point

For the Autobots, it's clear that relying on one Combiner is not a long term solution to the Decepticon threat. They endeavor to form another Combiner to share theAerialbots' burden!
The Decepticons consider Devastator too dangerous to rely on. Megatron has initiated a plan to form a new Combiner who is more subservient, and knows their place in the Decepticon pecking order! Battle to see your faction’s goal come to fruition and earn Alloy, Energon, Spark, 3-Star Shards and 4-Star Shards.

In-game name: DreadstalkerFaction: DecepticonPlayer Level: 74Decepticons unlocked: 117Alliance name: Mayhem Atk Squad Dreadstalker is one of our top Decepticon players, supporting one of our top alliances Mayhem Atk Squad with an impressive 7,016 medals. He also has the esteemed title of first player to reach 100,000 Combiner Bot Power!Over the past 206 days of gameplay, Dreadstalker has maxed out all of his 1-Star and 2-Star bots. His stellar roster includes 13 bots level 51 and higher, 22 4-Star bots levels 48/49 and 35 3-Star bots levels 47-50. Having won just under 23,500 battles, it’s safe to say he knows a thing or two about strategy. Scourge is by far his favorite bot, utilizing him on all of his leveling teams. His choice method of leveling is taking Scourge and 2-3 other bots into zone 11. He will strategically implement Scourge’s Fire Mission as many times as possible, hopefully clearing a path around any outposts. Congrats Dreadstalker!

Sounds like a guy with no life and lots of money to waste to a free app game.

From that blurb, I'd say we're getting Bruticus.

No idea about who the bots are getting, maybe Victorion

I'm thinking optimus Maximus. Unless they count Shockwave with Bruticus, it would be unfair to pair a 5 bot combiner against a 6, which Victorion is

Not me. Oh don't get me wrong, you're annoying, but also easy to ignore.

I'm betting all Combiners are gonna have six components - both to keep it fair and so that SpaceApe can get more money. So expect the inclusion of Shockwave, Rodimus, Blackjack etc.

Guess no Predaking then. Oh well, I can still do a 3* Onslaught.

Much as I would have loved him (he's one of the four combiners I really like), I'd doubt Predaking will ever get in because he doesn't have a recent toy.

I fully expect Bruticus to have an additional "weapon" bot if we're getting him, as Kurona said I also expect the combiners to made up of 6 characters in game.

While I'd love Brut to have Shockwave as a weapon, I can also see them using Viper, since they've already done the coding for Powerglide

Re: Transformers: Earth Wars - Breaking Point Event (1853187)
Posted by Kurona on January 19th, 2017 @ 12:02pm CST

So I was wrong - the new combiners only need 5 units each. Very happy I'm wrong though

Optimus Prime, Sunstreaker, Mirage, Prowl and Ironhide for Optimus Maximus.

Onslaught, Swindle, Brawl, Vortex and Blast Off for Bruticus.

Sorry for the terrible pictures

They both have less power but more health than Superion and Devastator. They also have the same abilities as each other; a shockwave that does 6X damage to walls, a stat buff and an ability that sends 4 missiles that deal massive damage to and disable 4 defences.

Anyone else think Optimus Maximus looks bloody weird?

Also, when you get the 2-Star crystal in the event (870 BP), it gives you story dialogue.

Well I'm already 40% on the way to Bruticus with 3* Blastoff and Vortex. Just wish that that wasn't 100% more than I have of Devastator

Re: Transformers: Earth Wars - Breaking Point Event (1853193)
Posted by Kurona on January 19th, 2017 @ 12:22pm CST

Meanwhile, I've got 3* Blast Off, Brawl and Swindle - just need Vortex and Onslaught. Weird thing is I just got 3* Swindle last weekend, right before Bruticus' announcement... likewise, I got 3* Long Haul right before Devastator was announced. What is going on?

Re: Transformers: Earth Wars - Breaking Point Event (1853227)
Posted by ThunderThruster on January 19th, 2017 @ 2:27pm CST

got a 2* swindle last week, which I was quite happy about at the time, less so now as I wish it had've been the 3*

Thanks to both Seibertronian Shauyaun and Twitter user Snakas, we now have images of the next 2 combiners making their way into Earth Wars: Optimus Maximus and Bruticus! The 2 new combiners are both 5 bot combiners instead of 6, so they should be slightly easier to collect. Bruticus follows his Combiner Wars toy design faithfully minus his thighs being turned 90 degrees like several fan modes. Optimus Maximus is weird: he follows his 'Ultra Prime' color scheme with his 'Optimus Maximus' limb design, but instead of the combined mode chest we are used to, he instead uses his Masterpiece MP-10 chest design with the little yellow spoiler/ax that came with Rodimus, who is not part of the set, making his design very.... interesting. Check out the new images below, which include the upcoming new cover screen, and let us know what you think in the comments section below!

I just noticed Bruticus also has Onslaught's arms by his sides (like Hot Spot) instead of on his shoulders where the tabs are on the toy. It helps his cannons stand out but also makes him look more like his mold mate.

I'm kinda WTF on Optimus Maximus's chest design. Why not just use the toy design that can, in turn, easily translate to a Menasor design down the road? (surely you've all noticed them introducing more Stunticons on the down-low)

As far as collecting Bruticus goes, I have 60% of him: 3* Swindle, Brawl, and Blast Off, and also a 4* Blast Off. Meanwhile for Devy I have 3* Scrapper and Long Haul and 4* Mixmaster and Scavenger. So overall I have 60% of Bruticus and 67% of Devastator. Yet I expect to finish Brute more quickly.

Also strange if that for Bruticus, his chest and crotch armour fly onto him after everyone combine - despite Onslaught having that armour on his vehicle and robot mode models like the CW toy.
