Mega Man Wall of Shame: Worst Robot Masters

Since 1987 the Blue Bomber has been entreating us. Mega Man is the top Capcom franchise with more games released then any other Capcom franchise. In all those games you are sure to get some great Robot Masters to face but you are also going to get some really lame ones. This article is not going to talk about the great ones though. This article is going to be the hall of fame of shame for the worst Mega Man Robot Masters.

Centaurman

It seems to me a centaur is half human and half man so centaurman seems a bit odd. Is he ¾ man since he is half man and half man horse? He is also part unicorn and that just makes things worse. Besides being such an odd character the other problem with Centaurman is that his level is the obligatory water level which has nothing to do with him. It is also pretty pathetic with bad guys that are pelicans the drop dead fish on you. Most every other bad guy in the Mega Man franchise had scarier henchmen.

Splash Woman

Splash Woman was the first female Robot Master and it took until Mega Man 9 to get one. Splash Woman also may have been the first Robot Master to have two names instead of one. Capcom seemed to think that a girl should be the weakest character. Some of her attacks were absurd such as singing. She is so bad at singing evidently it hurts you. Do I really need to say more then that?

Stoneman

Stoneman was so lame that his attack was to crumble to pieces in front of you. Most people would not call that an attack but proof the enemy gave up. As you can imagine Stoneman was one of the easiest Mega Man Robot Masters. Being easy might be a reason to attack him first but his power up was also one of the worst. While it sounds cool to have rocks hurtling at enemies since they never hurt anything they must be dirt not rocks. Making his power up totally useless.

Sheepman

First a sheep is not going to scare anyone but a 3 year old who has been left along in a petting zoo. Sheepmans attack is he becomes a cloud of wool and shocks you. I think biting or ramming would have been more realistic and possibly scarier. Using the power up Rebound Striker you can easily shoot him up high before he attacks making him useless. You can also play with Bass who jumps higher with no previous power up and do the same. With little effort you could keep sheepman from ever attacking you at all.

Plantman

Plantman is the only Robot Master that is lamer then Sheepman. Sheepman at least could eat Plantman. Plantman should be called Plantwoman because no self respecting obot or human man would look so girly. His attack is pretty much useless. He shoots some flower petals that you can jump over easily. Getting his power is about as useless. I think that throwing some flower petals at you hardly counts as an attack.

While most people will disagree with most Mega Man lists since there are so many games in the franchise it is hard to deny that most of these bosses belong on this list of worst Mega Man Robot Masters.
