Whirl



Whirl is a practitioner of Metallikato who never plans out a strategy before first observing the situation thoroughly. He frequently clashes with his Decepticon rival Bludgeon, whom he doesn't consider a true martial arts master due to his use of dishonorable tactics.[1] Each hopes to one day settle the question of which is the true master of the deadly martial art they practice.

A mutual respect based on observational skills and situational awareness is the basis for the bond between Whirl and his human partner, the infiltration specialist Major Sparkplug.
