User blog comment:Redkite/Battle relaunched: Optimus Prime (G1) vs. Luciano Bradley and the Percival./@comment-4203088-20120805144320

EDGES:

Short: The axe can be moved faster and can be swung as well as thrusted. Where the drill can only be thrusted. Prime

Special: The armor is full body and powerful, where as the handheld shield is not full-body armor. Prime

Range: The Ion cannon has much more ammunition than the rocket launcher, only holding 6 shots, however rockets have a larger blast radius and if prime gets hit by a majority of the rockets it's over. Percival

Overall Prime is the superior robot, he has speed over his opponent plus, Prime has only died once in the 3 years he has been fighting deceptiicons. And being a sentinent robot allows him to be better with it's systems than a person piloting it.
