Optimus Primal Overview
Optimus Primal is a Transformers collab retool of Shark Edge and, at 35 grams, one of the heaviest and most legitimately dangerous collab blades. It inherits Shark Edge's sloped smash-and-upper attack shape with extra mass behind it, making it a real glass-cannon attacker in a collector's shell.
Strengths
- + Genuine Shark Edge smash and upper attack power
- + Heavy at 35 grams, so its hits carry real force
- + Can burst or KO stamina and defense builds outright
- + One of the few collabs the community rates as battle-worthy
Weaknesses
- − Glass cannon with almost no stamina if the attack misses
- − Aggressive contact points wear down with heavy use
- − Needs a strong, clean launch to perform
Build Optimus Primal like the attacker it secretly is: its stock 3-60F already works, and Rush or Low Flat bits like 3-60R sharpen it further with a hard, full-power launch. Hunt stamina and defense blades you can throw out or burst early, and avoid long grinds. In a 3v3 deck it can honestly hold an attack slot at local level, the standout pick of the Transformers line.
