Barricade is a middling TF, imo. it has an EMP-ish weapon that is OK. Don’t use in competitions.

Suggest you get accessories that increase damage. Headphones and hats tend to cost less in gems, and is a start.

As noted above, Lockdown with proper accessories is decent. Anything that increases damage is good; headphones are cheaper and a good start. Incendiary round (enrgon cube) is good, acid rounds (squawk talk) is a real plus. Upgrade to Level 12 recommended

Soundwave- suggest headphones (+damage), cassette tape (faster reload) and
beast box (explosive Force). Upgrade to Level 12 also. OK in competition as long as you can use 2 TFs. It is great vs blocks as noted above, but pitiful vs WMTs, Unicron and Boss Pig. Suggest a Grimlock – see below.

Ricochet- a decent TF. Upgrade and accessorize, but with restraint. See below fir why.

Next TFs you unlock should be able to unlock are Brawl, Grey Slam Grimlock (usually abbreviated as GSG) and Energon Starscream.

Brawl is unremarkable, but better than any of the Bumblebees.

GSG should be a priority for upgrading, accessories and promoting. That helps in regular nodes nad competition. It is a favorite of mine, especially on Missile Day. It can take down Unicron, Boss Pig and WMTs. Suggest headphones (+damage), then sword (weapon cool down) and monocle (incendiary round) for GSG.

Starscream is decent once you get +damage (headphones) and explosive round(shoulder pads), and upgraded, of course.

You should be able to unlock Energon Grimlock (E.G.) soon. It is powerful and a favorite of mine and others. Upgrade, promote and accessories are a priority, imo.

Spend gems wisely; suggest you do not use them for instant upgrades or to finish an upgrade in progress until you have a decent hoard of gems. IF you decide to purchase gems – some here are very opposed to spending money on ABT – get the Gem Pass. Least expensive and an in- game purchase means no loading videos

Best of luck and hope this helps.
