- Mirror Response Mode is a Decepticon modus operandi from the IDW Publishing portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
In their carefully calculated phased conquest of planets across the galaxy, the Decepticons occasionally encounter a world with unique defenses. Mirror Response Mode is their way of dealing with such setbacks: analyze the defense, copy it, and fire it right back at the natives.
