** The nature of the series as a MassiveMultiplayerCrossover in addition to being a ''Transformers'' series; either it provides fun additional characters and worldbuilding, or it's just cramming in any series, [[StoryBreakerTeamUp regardless of compatibility]], that leads to [[SpotlightStealingSquad too much focus getting taken from the ''Transformers'' elements]].
** The frequent use of [[{{Expy}} Expies]]; either it's no big deal due to the elements taken fitting the tone of the series (ie, having characters based on those from the InspirationForTheWork), or it's just ripping off other series that makes ''Autobot Academy'' have less of it's own identity.

[[spoiler: until one remembers that she just got confirmation she's [[LukeIAmYourFather Megatrons daughter]]. That means she's advocating for a plan ''guaranteed'' to kill her in the process and erase everything she ever accomplished, and she doesn't seem at all concerned by that fact, even calling Beta Maxx a coward for rejecting the idea outright.]]

Plus, Longshot admits that he generalizes people, which makes his claim of being the OnlySaneMan at school doubtable, since he just seems to judge everyone he meets by whatever trait they display upon first meeting them. His treatment of Circuit is rather extreme, especially considering it starts ''before'' he finds out about his less savory traits, and his distrust of him can reach ridiculous extremes, most notably when accusing Circuit of sneaking around the school at night to get into trouble in the middle of a potential Decepticon attack that Longshot was ''in the middle of investigating''. There's also him shooting Circuit's foot for talking to his crush Aranea, which makes him come off as a CrazyJealousGuy. All in all, Circuit's TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to Longshot in "Nighttime Duel" is rather accurate.
* {{Wangst}}: Longshot is rather extreme about how much people dislike him, but it's especially bad during his angry rant at the diner that ends with him yelling at another student that they don't know what he's going through and that they should shut up.

* TheChrisCarterEffect: One of the major complaints about the series. Due to the high number of characters, the series features a large amount of subplots. However, this also means that when said characters are OutOfFocus for long stretches of time, their plots are put on hold as well. As such, some feel that the series will spiral out of control and be unable to resolve all these plots. The fact that this is what happened to both versions of Stonecrusher's previous series, Trabsformers Nexus, doesn't help aleviate these concerns.
