Burner Man

Burner Man (バーナーマン) is a fire-themed Robot Master from Mega Man & Bass, created to destroy natural environments. He entered King's army and was ordered to destroy nature. King tricked Burner Man into believing that he must burn a forest every day or else a self-destruct bomb inside him will explode; however, this isn't true, but Burner Man continued to burn forests in order to stay alive.

Burner Man's main weapon is a flamethrower in his right arm called the Wave Burner, which uses a special type of gas and releases green flames. These flames can also be released from his head and fingertips. Burner Man also attacks with grenades and foothold traps. His stage can only be unlocked by beating Cold Man. Burner Man's weakness is Ice Wall, which is able to push him out of the arena and into the spikes that outlay his room.

Strategy
You'll find that Burner Man is very quick. At the start of the fight, Burner Man will dash toward you, then turn around and dash in the opposite direction. While running around, Burner Man will also throw grenades and shoot out traps that will hide themselves in the ground. Running into these will trap you momentarily. Burner Man will occasionally use his flamethrower for a few seconds, jump a small length toward you, and then repeating. This is the best time to use the Ice Wall against him, since he is on the ground and in plain sight. Using the Ice Wall will push him into the spikes on each side of the room, doing considerable damage.

Trivia

 * Burner Man is called "Blast Man" in his early sketches.


 * Burner Man's weakness is rare (he is a fire-type robot weak against an ice weapon); only two other bosses, Fire Man and Burn Rooster share this type of weakness. (See Fire Man for explanation.) Also, all three have fire coming out of their heads.


 * Though Burner Man is a fire-themed robot, his stage is set in a forest. However, this might be based around his original task of burning them.


 * Burner Man is visually based on a Bunsen Burner.
 * Both Burner Man and Dynamo Man were designed by Japanese manga artist Hitoshi Ariga, creator of the MegaMan Megamix series.
