Optimus Prime agreed to fight against the C-X in mock war games in order to test its capabilities. The first test was a purely physical battle. Although the C-X's strength was impressive, it's defensive abilities were incomplete. After guarding against several blows to gauge the C-X's measure, Optimus Prime was able to catch the mechanoid's fist and ground it with a judo flip. The C-X failed the next test as well: a targeting demonstration. It appeared the robot lacked the ability to compensate for close-range targets. Wheeljack and Bluestreak each lent their expert opinions to the design crew after each test for possible upgrades.
