    Deathsaurus

    Allegiance: Decepticon
    Sub-Group: Breast Force (yes, I know...)
    Function: Decepticon Emperor of Destruction
    Transformation: Dragon (Or, as I like to call it, the Giant Chicken Monster)

    Abilities: Leader of the Destron forces. The greatest evil in the universe, this mightiest warrior of the Breast Force contains within him the symbols of evil known as the "Tiger Breast" and "Eagle Breast."

    Weapons: Death Tailer

    Final Attack: The "Death Wing" - Using the Wing Cutters on his back, he converts sunlight into dark energy and sends it plunging into his enemy. This attack will corrode any type of metal.


    Succeeded Overlord as the fifth Destron Leader. Together with Leozack and company, he formed the Breast Force, and has been ravaging through the universe for eons. Savage and cruel, he despises humans, yet has a soft spot for children.

    Starscream
    Allegiance: Decepticon
    Function: Decepticon Aerospace Commander

    "Conquest is made of the ashes of one's enemies."

    Profile: Starscream makes no secret of his ambition to overthrow Megatron as Decepticon Leader. He is ruthless, cold-blooded and cruel. In that sense the two rivals are very much alike. But he has a vain side that clearly distinguishes him. He considers himself the most sophisticated and handsome of the Decepticons. He exudes a high-class, urbane air that provides a certain irony to his murderous tendencies. He looks down at Megatron for being antiquated in his military strategy. Starscream believes the Decepticons should rely more on guile and speed rather than brute, destructive force to defeat the Autobots. Megatron overlooks the potential threat Starscream represents for one very good reason: Starscream is very good at his job.

    Abilities: Starscream is one of the fastest flyers of the Decepticons, reaching speeds up to Mach 2.8. He can climb to sub-orbital altitudes of 52 miles and nose-dive down to near ground level in mere minutes. This makes him particularly effective in surprise attacks and hit-and-run actions. He can shoot cluster bombs a distance of 40 miles, each of which can level an area 10,000 feet square. His null-ray rifle can interrupt the flow of electricity in any circuitry it hits for periods of up to two minutes, effectively preventing the operation of many machines dependent on those circuits during that period.

    Weaknesses: Starscream overrates himself sometimes, and finds himself in situations that are more than he can handle. His nose-dives often overload his gyro-circuitry leaving him disoriented briefly. But, overall, he is a very tough nut to crack.

    I noted in the Leozack vs Slag match from a couple rounds ago that he and Starscream are functionally almost identical in terms of stats and abilities. There's no question that Deathsaurus would be able to defeat Leozack in a fight, and I have no doubt that the outcome of a fight between him and Starscream would end the same way. Deathsaurus meets or exceeds him in every single stat, and his Endurance of 10 means that even Starscream's most potent weapon, the Null Ray, isn't likely to do much good (especially given Deathsaurus's high Intelligence and sheer size). Deathsaurus would win this fight handily.

    Love ya' Starscream, but Deathsaurus is a memorable series lead antagonist for a reason, so gave the vote to Victory's villain.
