Maximum Assault Mech X, abbreviated as MAMX, is a famous anime/manga/card game/lifestyle. The Mech Battles, remote-control mechs that face off in combat, between fans got so popular that it became a national sport and a cornerstone of the MAMX-Con, the world's biggest mech competition. Garth Bernstein was the sole member of Metropolis High School's chapter of the Maximum Assault Mech X Fan Club. Garth Bernstein overheard Kara Danvers talk about her low grades and need to join a club to pass the semester. He promised her something so cool it would melt her face, make her nose hair sizzle and blow her mind. Danvers was intrigued and went to the club room. He showed her a clip in the club room. Danvers saw enough and was about to bail. Bernstein tried to woo her back with the Mech Battles. He added it was his dream to win the Mech Battles at MAMX-Con. Bernstein's dilemma was he needed a second member to qualify for the convention. He made a face of sadness.

Danvers caved in and tried a Mech Battle. She presumed the goal was to beat up the opponent's mech. Bernstein tried to flower it up as engagements of integrity and honor. She got him to admit it was about beating up mechs. Bernstein won the match by having his mech uppercutting the head off of Danvers's. She was hooked and they played for hours. By 3:20 pm, Bernstein won 24 times and Danvers won only once. She managed to pull off a move called the Takeshi Tornado. Danvers noted she had a pretty sick teacher. Winslow Schott, a nationally-ranked Mech Battler and MAMX-Con finalist, had transferred to Metropolis High in search of a teammate. Bernstein revealed he was ranked #24 in the tri-state area. Danvers took him aside and pointed out she was his partner. Bernstein broke it to her that Schott was better, he was a genius and customized mechs since he was three. Danvers challenged him to a match. Schott quickly won. Danvers proposed best out of three. Schott countered with a bet, if she lost she had to quit the team and the club. Schott's mech grabbed Danvers's and shook it around.

Danvers escaped and proceeded with a level-six frontal assault. Schott cheated and triggered an electromagnetic pulse from his controller. Danvers's mech turned off and Schott was declared the winner. Danvers saw the pulse because of her radio-telescopic vision and accused him of cheating. Bernstein didn't believe her. Winslow Schott and Garth Bernstein made it to the final match. Schott refused to lose again and revealed his plan to Bernstein. He revealed the electromagnetic pulse trigger in his controller. Bernstein realized Danvers was telling the truth and he cheated before. He emphasized MAMX was about honor. Schott saw no honor in letting "posers" walk off with the trophy. He reminded Bernstein he dreamed of winning, too. During the match, Bernstein had a hard time focusing. He noticed Danvers cheering him on in the crowd. Schott told Bernstein to make a distraction according to the plan. Bernstein instead dropped his controller and accused Schott of cheating. The crowd turned on them. The referee checked his controller and found the electromagnetic pulse switch.

They were disqualified and the pair of girls they competed against were declared the winners. Bernstein apologized to Danvers back stage and she reciprocated with a fist bump. Schott had enough and opened up a secret button in the middle of his controller. Upon pressing it, his mech turned gigantic and he attacked the arena. The audience ran for it or hid. Schott perched atop his mech and laughed. Supergirl arrived and punched the mech. Schott had enough of being called a kid and declared he was a man, a toy man. Supergirl found his speech lame. She dodged its punches, counter attacked, but was forced to defend from a flurry of punches. Schott pointed out not even Supergirl could stand up to his genius. The mech body slammed her then powered up a karate chop. Supergirl caught it but struggled to hold her ground. Schott declared he was going to destroy Supergirl then Bernstein and Danvers then the world would know the greatness and glory of the mighty MAMX master, Toy Man. Supergirl tossed up the mech's hand, caught it again, the floor caved a little, and she lifted the mech off the ground, spun around, and tossed it through the roof into the sky. Schott fell off and screamed for his life. Supergirl walked a few paces, held out her arms, and Schott landed right on them. The audience cheered. After the convention, Danvers and Bernstein returned to school and played more mech battles. Danvers finally won her second match. Bernstein wasn't so sure about counting the time she said his mother was outside then knocked his mech over. Danvers understood then told him his father was outside. Bernstein turned and looked. Danvers knocked his mech over and declared her third win.

Schott rebuilt his giant mech and pursued Bernstein into a construction site. Bernstein ran into a dead end and presumed this was revenge for destroying his livestream by exposing him as a cheater but suggested he bought some of that on himself. Toy Man countered he piloted a mech so he didn't have to be self-aware. Supergirl charged and Toy Man deployed a rocket fist holding a piece of power negating Gold Kryptonite. Supergirl went sailing, took Bumblebee along with her, and they busted through a billboard for toothpaste across town. In the rematch, Bumblebee volunteered to keep Toy Man busy while Supergirl saved Bernstein. The mech opened fire on Bumblebee and Toy Man gloated it was like shooting one of those ducks in a shooting gallery.

Toy Man was distracted by an itchy armpit and the mech copied his frantic movements. He asked Bumblebee how she didn't sweat to death under her armor. Bumblebee obliged him and shouted she rubbed cornstarch in the inner lining. Toy Man was surprised cornstarch was the solution and commended her for being friendly unlike Supergirl. Toy Man realized he wasn't watching where she was. He blasted at Supergirl. With no powers and a wide chasm to cross, Supergirl still leaped across. Luckily, her powers returned mid-jump and she shielded Bernstein from the cannonball. Toy Man switched the mech's right hand into cannon. Supergirl freed Bernstein, grabbed him and Bumblebee, and they leaped in unison at the mech. While the mech smoldered, a police officer took Toy Man into custody.
