The Mech was not capable of ‘kicking’ in a conventional sense, the weight would be too much for the legs to sustain safely. However, as one might expect from a mechanical construct with the ability of walking, it was more than capable of bending its knees, and therefore had the necessary requirements for a different form of defence.

As Saanga leapt at the Mech, Higan was waiting, suspecting that any foe who would charge straight at him was more comfortable at a melee range it was the only logical option. His Mech was somewhat limited in its own melee capabilities, but it did have a certain trick to perform. As the shield was launched away it suddenly thrust off the ground with its left leg, raising its right knee up high and driving its momentum forward and through Saanga, aiming to crush him with its metallic weight while cutting his leaping motion short with a knee to the body and face. 

Once again it would come down to momentum and weight, two things the Mech definitely had to its favour.
