In terms of fighting style, Hyperion prefers to engage the enemy from a distance, using its energy cannons to wear down its opponent until melee combat is absolutely necessary. However, this isn't to say that Hyperion is unskilled at hand-to-hand combat. Under the influence of Maigo, its Voice, it was capable of fighting the physically stronger Lovecraft and sending it into retreat. Its most unique strategy would be that of the orbital drop, in which Hyperion teleports a short distance to grab its opponent and then teleport into the upper atmosphere. This action leaves Hyperion sufficiently drained of energy and most of its systems shut down as it falls back down to earth alongside the Kaiju enemy, which has most likely died from a lack of oxygen by that point. This is a risky move, since not only does Hyperion have to rely on his opponent as a heat shield, but because he only regains enough energy to teleport and save himself mere moments from hitting the ground and dying. The use of this in Project Legion also showcases that Hyperion's teleportations defy the laws of gravity, since teleporting only changes your position, not your momentum. Either the teleportations gradually reconstructs his atoms in order to slow his momentum and save him, though this is unlikely since his teleportation appears instantaneous, or the Rift Engine provides an anti-gravity effect when teleporting, this is most likely since the Rift Engine has showcased some form of gravity control before.
