Torch Man

"Perhaps you will be a challenge. Fall to the fist of flame!"

- Torch Man

Torch Man is a Robot Master set to appear in Mega Man 11. He originally taught children about fire safety, but was reprogrammed by Dr. Wily to fight against Mega Man and use his pyrokinetic abilities for destructive purposes. His Special Weapon, Blazing Torch, allows Mega Man to fire a ball of red-hot fire diagonally into the air.

Personality
Despite being a fire-themed robot, Torch Man is surprisingly cool-headed, although he is prone to losing his temper when his opponent gets the upper hand in battle.

Strategy
Torch Man spends most of his battle shooting fireballs from his fists, occasionally stopping to jump around the room and try to hit Mega Man with a well-placed kick. He can either run up to Mega Man and perform a sweeping kick, or he can jump up and then come down with a blazing kick.

When he loses half of his health, Torch Man activates an overdrive attack in which he jumps around the room and sends giant fireballs rolling on the ground, then jumps into the air and comes crashing down in the middle of the room, creating a massive flame pillar in his wake. He returns to his normal pattern after this.
