It's fine trying to get the character recruited by doing the least amount of damage possible but he just completely nulified Trans-Am in a pretty absurd way. He didn't even sit there and get beat on until Trans-Am wore off and its actual severe problem kicked in, which would've been fine, it's how you survive Trans-Am. He seriously outmaneuvered it at every point with a unit that isn't really dedicated to high speed melee combat in the first place, caught the supercharged wrecking ball made out of sword then precisely severed a tiny power cord, and only that, by stabbing through his shield. 

And honestly, I prefer doing this here, it brings transparency. Y'all can see my points, can see how I put them forward, can tell me what you think.
