Blast Man

Blast Man (ブラストマン) is a Robot Master set to appear in Mega Man 11. He is a volatile robot with a flair for the theatrics and a taste for explosions. He was originally designed by Dr. Light to create explosions from his bombs until he was reprogrammed by Dr. Wily to help him conquer the world and fight against Mega Man.

Blast Man's stage is set in the ruined remains of a theme park and movie studio hybrid that he has shaped into his personal playground. He added several personal touches, including a number of signs featuring himself as the star of “Blast Man Adventure.”

Strategy
Blast Man hops around the room while slinging explosives everywhere in his attempt to destroy Mega Man. He usually alternates between lobbing several bombs in an arc while standing still and jumping high up to chuck bombs downward. Sometimes he'll also jump around Mega Man and hurl a bomb right at him, kind of like Bomb Man. Every now and then, Blast Man will use his Special Weapon, Chain Blast, to spawn four floating bombs which will gravitate towards Mega Man and explode after a few seconds. When Blast Man is low on health he'll tap into his Power Gear, increasing the size of his bombs and giving them greater explosive force while his attack patterns become more erratic. After defeating Blast Man, Mega Man obtains Chain Blast.
