Diffusion is a martial art favoured by the Autobots for its possibility to take out an enemy without permanently harming them. While once a strictly defined discipline, it is now used to define all non-lethal combat techniques. Its essence is to turn the enemy's aggression against them to keep both fighters from suffering any lasting damage. Somewhat controversial to the art's teachings, some individuals have effectively adapted the art to redirect an opponent's hostile overtures into powerful retaliatory attacks.[1]

Notes
- It seems that the concept of Diffusion is based on the real-life art of Aikido, which too makes a great deal about avoiding harm to an opponent.
