Quickstrike’s protoform fell out of orbit after the destruction of the Vok planet buster, but due to a disfunctional scanner, his stasis pod scanned two animals at once, resulting in him having a beast mode of a scorpion with a cobra’s head in the place of a stinger. He went online  and attacked the recently activated Silverbolt until Megatron arrived, convincing him that he was a Predacon. Silverbolt later defected to the Maximals while Quickstrike remained with Megatron.Â

   Quickstrike engaged in many battles during the Beast Wars but was finally destroyed with Inferno by a blast from the Nemesis warship.
