Robot Overview: Bulwark

Meet Bulwark, the techy tank that packs a punch! This bruiser boasts stamina, durability, and a defensive ability. While it can shoot down projectiles around you with its ability, Bulwark still struggles with laser beams and shotguns, so be sure to use it tactically and lead your team to victory with this damage-soaking hulk.
