Masher 2.0 is a giant mechanical menace built with highly upgraded weapons and defenses from that of its past form. It wields a massive flail that it is able to jerk back and forth quite easily due to its extreme strength and size. Its aim with the flail is also very precise, coming close enough to graze Knuckle Joe's cheek at one point.
