Mantis's charge is a very fast charge compared to other CRA robos. It devastates at close range and can be used in conjuction with stunning guns like the Thunderbolt or the Splash.
Circle your target while air-dashing to avoid most attacks. When in range, fire the Stun Gun once. While they're immobilized, fire a bomb and deploy the pod. While you're waiting for the bomb to recharge, keep spamming the Stun Gun while they're knocked down. When the Tomahawk Bomb is ready for another bomb, fire it again and deploy another pod. This spamfest can deal up to 400 damage on opponents with average defense. You can also swap Quick Jump Legs for either Long Thrust or Ground Legs to change how you want to approach your opponent.
