Burner Man (Mega Man & Bass)

From Atrocious Gameplay Wiki

Burner Man is one of the 8 Robot Masters of Mega Man & Bass. He and his stage are infamous for being frustrating and annoying.

Why They Both Deserve to Be Burned

Overall

  1. Frustrating Difficulty with both the stage and the boss himself.

His Stage

  1. The Enemies are annoying:
    1. The Tellies and Muragattoris that constantly pop up on the Heat-Man disc room spot.
    2. The Gori-threes (Guts Man Lookalikes) that throw stuff non-stop and are very tanky to kill.
    3. The Onbuubattans (Grasshopper enemies) that are hard to hit.
    4. and worst of all, The Giant Tellies that drop that drop grenades that cover the floor with insta-kill fire.
  2. Misleading Premise: The Stage is not fire related for the most part.
  3. Irritating traps. EX:The spears as they come out randomly, the Cover-opened floors, and of course, the Fire hazard as that insta-kills Mega Man and Bass themselves.
  4. The Heat Man disc is by far one of the most frustrating and annoying discs to get as while it is in place where rush is needed to dig to get it, the Tsuranattoris constantly pop up in the room his disc is in and will damage rush if not quick enough to destroy any of them.

Burner Man Himself

  1. He has many attacks with a randomness based pattern, worst yet is that there are drops that lead to instant kill spikes in the corners of the stage!
  2. The Wave Burner, in which he shoots a flamethrower from his arm, deals loads of damage, worse still is that he jumps as he shoots it, therefore covering a ton of terrain.
  3. He has also has this attack where he sets bear traps up onto the ground, making for cheap hits.
  4. Due to the wide distance covered, it is easy to get cornered and forced to take hits or lose a life to the spikes thanks to the pressure.
  5. His weakness, the Ice wall is unorthodox as he is not able to be hit regularly so easily, instead he needs to be on the ground then it is needed to be shoved into him to make him into fall into spikes to give him damage. Even worse is that he has a ram attack that makes him invincible in which he is able to destroy your Ice wall.
  6. Due to the weakness order, Burner Man will most likely be the second boss that players will go through, providing a Difficulty Spike that would make Anubis Rex proud.
  7. Two exclusive parts that make the fight more infuriating.
    1. While Mega Man has a charge shot to deal high damage if the Ice Wall's been used up, he can have trouble avoiding most (if not all) of Burner Man's attacks.
    2. In the case with Bass, while he can avoid most attacks thanks to the ability to double jump and having the dash ability, the fight will take longer as Bass' buster shots only do one damage at a time.

Redeeming Qualities

  1. The Stage has nice music.
  2. Burner Man Himself has a pretty cool design.
  3. The Wave Burner, his weapon, could have the potential to be useful for close range.
