Autobots

NameRarityTierNotes
ArceeMythicS
BluestreakMythicA
BumblebeeLegendB
CliffjumperLegendC
First AidLegendA
GrimlockInspiringSChronoMirage: the pay-to-win pair with Jetfire. Their Inspiring trait counts as whichever trait your team has most of, so they fit any team, but they are the hardest pulls in the game.
HoundMythicAChronoMirage: same pattern as Snarl — damage with utility and crowd control.
HufferEpicC
IronhideLegendC
JazzEpicC
JetfireInspiringSChronoMirage: same Inspiring trait as Grimlock, fits any team; very hard to obtain.
MirageMythicB
Optimus PrimeMythicS
ProwlMythicSChronoMirage moved him to S: his Ultimate hits all enemies for 200% ATK and puts the team into Battle Analysis mode, raising allies' attack speed and dodge rate. Dodge matters when you push stages above your power.
RatchetMythicSChronoMirage: healers are the strongest role right now; the hardest enemy teams are the ones with two Ratchets.
SideswipeEpicD
SludgeMythicAChronoMirage: underrated. He gives shields, a DEF increase and some crowd control; worth a slot if you already run a healer.
Slug EAn/rSStillAliveGG: early-access only for now; S tier there.
SnarlMythicAChronoMirage: damage plus some crowd control; other guides he read also rate Snarl and Hound highly.
SunstreakerEpicD
SwoopMythicB
TrailbreakerLegendC
WheeljackLegendB

Decepticons

NameRarityTierNotes
Blitzwing EAn/rAStillAliveGG: newest early-access bot; good, but he placed it A, below the S tier.
BombshellMythicA
BonecrusherLegendCChronoMirage put him in D: his shield-break sounds useful, but swapping him in did not get past a shielded stage that more damage could.
BreakdownMythicA
Dead EndMythicAChronoMirage: a damage dealer that can Seal enemies (stops them using their Ultimate); pairs with Hook and Optimus Prime for a team that keeps enemy Ultimates locked.
Drag StripLegendC
HookLegendAChronoMirage: a healer that also restores energy to the lowest-HP ally, so Ultimates come back faster.
Kickback EAn/rSStillAliveGG: early-access only for now; S tier there.
Long HaulEpicC
MegatronMythicS
MixmasterEpicD
MotormasterMythicB
ScavengerEpicD
ScrapperEpicD
Shockwave EAn/rSStillAliveGG: only on early-access servers so far, "absolutely S tier" there. Expect him on global servers later.
ShrapnelLegendC
SkywarpMythicB
SoundwaveMythicSChronoMirage: three of his skills are crowd control (silence, plus a bleed that lowers enemy ATK and damage).
StarscreamMythicAChronoMirage: not great against healer-heavy teams; he is skipping the Starscream rate-up event.
ThundercrackerLegendBChronoMirage (F2P team video): percentage-based true damage and a 3-second stun at 2 stars, which is why he ranks him much higher than StillAliveGG does.
WildriderLegendC
