Also how much do you think optimus prime weights?

Ummmm stops at 1 or 2. He has zero chance of beating Thor.

Iron Man should be final, difficulty. Transformers aren durable enough to hang with these guys

They did an Optimus Prime vs Iron Man on Bat in the sun where fans vote on who wins and I think Optimus won. Personally though I’d think Iron Man wins.

Might get stopped at 1. Ultron is too fast and agile for Prime. If he makes it past #1 then he stops at Ironman.

I was going for more durable. Optimus is both faster and more agile than Ultron

Anyone who says optimus isn’t fast or agile is smoking crack

Why would you considser him faster or more agile than Ultron? Ultron was having aerial dog fights with Ironman and Vision. Engaged in h2h fights with Cap and Thor. Prime is pretty fast and mobile for his size but physics still play a part in this.

Optimus (as well as most Transformers) are actually disproportionately fast relative to their size. They move with near human speed and agility despite being much larger.

Not to mention looking slow at giant speeds =/= being slow. They're actually covering way more distance in their motion than a human-sized opponent would in the same amount of time.

Or to give other examples, Giant-Man's Leviathan punch from EG. It almost looks like it's happening in slow motion from our POV, considering it takes him almost 2 full seconds to cock back his arm and throw the strike. Yet despite how it looks visually, his fist is traveling several dozen feet in those 2 seconds. How many people can cover that same distance in 2 seconds from a stationary position? No one without some kind of super-speed and/or flight powers. Or take Godzilla's tail whip. It doesn't visually look very fast, but his tail is also covering a couple hundred feet in its arc in a very short amount of time. Or Surtur in Ragnarok. It takes him like 4 full seconds to bring his sword down from over his head for the Asgard-killing strike, which is slow as fuk by human-sized standards. But at his size that sword likely dropped a couple hundred meters in those 4 seconds. So, not slow at all, actually.

It's how giant-sized characters like Kong, Godzilla etc. can tag helicopters, fighter planes etc. despite appearing sluggish from a human's perspective. Because they're not actually that slow. Their size just distorts our perspective.

That all being said, the Transformers have terribly inconsistent durability, which gets progressively worse and more inconsistent throughout the franchise, so not sure they'd handle the arsenal some of these guys have very well. Could possibly beat Ultron though, as Ultron didn't actually have the most impressive damage output.

Stops at 2.

Hits the brakes if you will.

Optimus is way faster than Ultron for all the reasons Vault just gave

And we have plenty of evidence of Transformers hitting human sized targets over all the movies.

Its really just durability and damage output holding prime back. As far as skill goes he would work all these mfers

Remember when optimus took down two major level D-cons. It was in a forest. It was insanity, he was out gunned and outnumbered and he faking wrecked them. Optimus is a true elite auto bot, the last of the primes.

My bad, it wasn’t two

It was three

And they were not lightweights

It was megaton, starscream and blackout.

What about Sentinel Prime, was he the one who trained optimus?

Yeah, he was Prime's mentor. But Optimus was his better, especially after Optimus being in constant combat for years while Sentinel was just chillin.
