I love Messala. He has a fun, usable MA mode that isn't cheap like Hambrabi's (I also don't think his MA mode is very fun, either TAT). 4/6bc and n/8bc are the more evasive, but 2bc is perfect for needing an emergency transformation that puts the MA on track to the target, as well as forestalling a landing by a few frames in hairy situations.

I think the best part of Messala is that his MA mode is strongly encouraged for practical use, unlike several other MS which just seem to have MA modes for show. The gero may be thin, but the speed, tracking, correction damage per hit, and lasting stun while as an MA make it worthwhile. "Oh, you think you're safe from this gerobi while directly underneath this MA form? Think again..."

It's also fun to spam his missiles, which have an ungodly charge-rate in MA form. The firing rate on main is increased as well, and the non-vrenier Gabthley summon helps lay down and unforgiving barrage.

The melee leaves something to be desired, but I can't say many people will ever get close to a good Messala without getting pretty hurt in the process. Regardless, I do manage to find some use for 4/6b and 2b.

Long-story short, be in MA mode almost like 90% of the time. XD
