	~ Quickstrike blowing up the Thunder Zords' base.

Quickstrike is a supporting antagonist in Zord Adventures. He is a Predacon soldier with a scorpion beast mode and serves as one of Rampage's minions and an enemy of the Zords and the Maximals.

He is voiced by the series' creator, Andrew Deliberies, who also voiced Rampage and Tarantulas in the same series.

His Evil Ranking.

What Makes Him Close To Being Pure Evil?

• Prior to the events of the series, Quickstrike was a Predacon soldier who fought alongside Megatron, and later Rampage after the formers death, during the Beast Wars against their enemies, the Maximals.
• After Rampage had Dinobot and Rhinox reprogramed into Predacons, he and the rest of the Predacons would go to attack The Maximal base and completely destroy it, forcing the remaining Maximals (Cheetor and Rattrap) to retreat into hiding.
• Under Rampage's orders, he and Spittor guarded the Ninja Zords' Temple in the Desert of Despair against anyone who would try to rescue the Ninja Zords.
  • It's also implied that they were the ones responsible for the deaths of numerous Zords who tried to rescue the Ninja Zords, as it's stated by Griffin that the Desert of Despair is "filled with horrible creatures and the bodies of does who tried to succeed"
• He and Spittor attacked the Dino Zords when they tried to rescue the Ninja Zords.
• He, alongside Dinobot, Dragon, Rhinox, Tarantulas and Tsubasamaru went on their mission to destroy the Thunder Zords' base and make Rampage's conquest easier by destroying the Thunder, Ninja and Shogun Zords.
  • Quickstrike ends up being the one to destroy the base by pushing the button and detonating the explosives, killing 12 people in the process, a third of whom included Rhinox, Tarantulas and Tsubasamaru.

• He showed zero remorse for killing his teammates and even denied giving them a moment of silence due to considering it as less important than delivering the good news about their mission's success to Rampage.
• He, Dragon and Dinobot captured Rhino and Armadillo, which allowed Rampage to reprogram them into Predacons so they could form GaoIcarus with Giraffe, Deer and Falcon and help him with his plan.
• He and the other Predacons went to fulfill their genocidal quest, starting with the Samurai Zords, most of whom he participated with killing or possibly killed himself.
• While he does have some comedic moments, like him making cowboy noises while riding on SaberTooth's back, Tyrano killing him by whacking him with his tale into a wall being somewhat comical and Tsubasmaru appearing behind him and scaring him, they don't detract from his villainy, especially his worst act of blowing up the Thunder Zords' base, which is played for horror with the Ninja Zords being horrified by seeing the remains of their dead friends.

What Prevents Him From Being Pure Evil?

• He is genuinely loyal to Rampage, always obeying him without question (as seen with him being the one to blow up the base when Dinobot refused due to his code of honor) and found reporting the good news of their mission's success to him more important than mourning his comrades' deaths.
• He fails the heinous standards to Tarantulas and BakurenOh, who both played larger roles in Rampage's plans and the destruction of the Thunder Zords' base. Tarantulas created the Reprogrammer X, which allowed Rampage to brainwash dozens of innocent Zords to his side (one of them being Dragon, who was necessary for the destruction of the base to work) and is one of the reasons why he came as close as he did to winning. BakurenOh not only came up with the plan to destroy the Thunder Zords' base, but also almost single-handedly acquired Dragon with minimal help from Tsubasamaru and Scorponok, who couldn't do it on their own, and also gave Rampage the AllSpark Staff, which was another asset that greatly helped him during the final episode.
  • While it's implied that he and Spittor murdered numerous Zords in the Desert of Despair and might have killed some of the Samurai Zords, neither of these are confirmed and the former would also fall under off-screen villainy.
