User blog comment:Redkite525/Optimus Prime (Movie) vs. Teridax/@comment-2213439-20120519215143/@comment-5790624-20120521164927

During the creation of this battle, I thought of Terdiax as a mechanical opponent for Optimus, to make this a battle where melee, range, combat experience and skill would be tested. Given I was unaware that he was more god than mechanical. I knew he had powers so I chose to limit them to put his combat skills to the test here.

'''I trying to stress to you that I wanted a combat engagement here, not magic powers so I limited them. '''

It is true that I have misrepresented Teridax, I intended this to be a battle of weapons and hand-to-hand combat skills and this is how I am doing the blog.

I understand and akknowledge how his powers here but I intended for this to be a robot vs. robot battle and did not realise his full capabilities at the time and I am sorry for this.

This will continue as a robot vs. robot fight but he will have the beam powers and another power of Leo's choice that is fair to be used against Optimus in a robot vs. robot fight.
