And with another update comes another helping of Sleights!

New Sleights

Attack

Blitz: A multi-hit jump attack. Press reaction commands to continue the combo. Requires 3 attack cards of different Keyblades with a total of 10-15.

Magic

Fire Raid: Like it implies, Strike Raid but covered in fire. Doesn't stun, but does do a lot more damage, particularly to things weak to fire! Just requires Fire plus two attack cards.

Summon

Cross Slash: Cloud does a three hit combo with his sword. Two Clouds.

Omnislash: Cloud flies around the arena, hitting enemies with his sword. Uses reaction commands. It's powerful, and can hit almost anyone, but it's uncontrollable who it targets, and it takes much longer than it did in the GBA version, making it easier to break. Three Clouds.

Splash Lv2/Lv3: It's Dumbo. He sprays water. You can aim the spray. Woooo. :v: Two or three Dumbo cards.

New Sleights

Attack

Zantetsuken: Instantly break a card and make it unreloadable for the rest of the battle. I don't find it all that useful myself... Takes three attack cards totally 0 or 27 (so three 0s or three 9s).

Sonic Blade: Same as the original! Shoot across the battlefield until you hit the maximum number of attacks with reaction commands. Pretty useful in Re:CoM! Three attack cards of different types totalling 20-23.

Magic

Stopra/Stopga: Freezes enemies in place. The more Stops, the longer it lasts. Two or three Stops.

Tornado: A controllable tornado. Can do significant damage to enemies, as well as stun them! Aero + Gravity + a summon card.

Terror: Makes it so enemies no longer get near you for a while. Either two summons + Jack, or Simba + Mushu + an item card.

Gifted Miracle: Heals everyone, reloads cards, and resets reload counter. A summon card + a magic card + Jack, or Bambi + Blizzard + an item card.

Friend

Surprise Lv2/Lv3: Like Donald, Jack casts two magic spells, but he'll cast the same one twice, and they're all attack spells (Fire, Blizzard, Thunder, or Gravity). So I'm sure you can guess what Lv2 and Lv3 do. Requires two to three Jack cards.

It amuses me that you riff on people when they say spoilers about [mysterious girl], and then post the character card which is even more spoilery. :D

Also, if(when) you start cutting entire rooms, consider leaving parts of the introductory fights at normal speed, because for my part I had sometimes problems identifying what enemies you are actually fighting with.

Actually hold up. Before he was given freedom, Genie was essentially a god with ultimate power. So why couldn't one of the wishes be used to just get rid of all heartless forever? Unless that falls under the no killing rule for genies.

Exactly. Genie in Kingdom Hearts could EASILY have been Deus Ex Machina. I'm kinda glad they didn't go that route.

Unfortunately, it does. This is why I can't understand why they didn't make Re: CoM the movie for 1.5 and just remake Days. 358/2 Days would have been a much better game if they had just remade it and balanced it for a single player experience like they did with the Mirage Arena in Birth By Sleep for 2.5. I can honestly see a decent game in Days but it is completely covered up by all the bullshit they added to it.

Lots of magic sleights this time! Most of them boring, but it includes THE BEST SLEIGHT IN THE GAME.

New Sleights

Attack

Ars Arcanum: You've seen this before. Multi-hit combo, press Triangle to keep going after a bit. Requires 3 attack cards totaling 1-6. Because of this, it's easy to break.

Magic

Thundara/Thundaga: Yawn. Two or three Thunder cards.

Gravira/Graviga: Pfft. Two or three Gravity cards.

Aerora/Aeroga: Bor- wait, what? This is different?! Aero in this game is an AoE attack that knocks enemies away from you while dealing damage. Aerora and Aeroga up the damage and knock them farther. Two or three Aero cards.

Firaga Burst: Oh man, now we're talking! Firaga Burst creates a large fireball above you that shots tons of fireballs all around the area. Two Fires and a Gravity. I used this one a lot!

Confuse: Gives the same effect as hitting an Heartless in the field with a confusion barrel; that is, they bumble around and don't attack much. Not all that useful, I think, but I never bothered with those types of status ailments. Requires Genie, Tinker Bell, and another summon card, so it's difficult to put together also.

Lethal Frame: ... There are no words to properly describe Lethal Frame. Freezes an enemy in place, and then Sora goes and slices the poo poo out of them. It is by far the best sleight in the game, and will tear any and all bosses that Sora can attack from the ground to shreds. Stop and two attack cards.

Summon

Idyll Romp: Bambi runs around and confuses enemies. See above for my thoughts on confusion. Bambi and two attack cards.

Paradise Lv2/Lv3: Bambi dropping health orbs. That is, Bambi's normal thing. Two or three Bambis.

Showtime Lv2/Lv3: Genie casts two spells randomly chosen between Gravity, Thunder, and Stop. Level of spell depends on how many Genies; two is -ra, three is -ga. Standard.

Cross Slash+: Cloud teleports to an enemy and uses Cross Slash on them. Useful. Cloud, Stop, and an attack card.

Friend

Sandstorm Lv2/Lv3: Aladdin doing what Aladdin does; hitting enemies, stunning them, and dropping Moogle Points. Handy for grinding points. Two or three Aladdins to make it last longer.

Days is a worse game than even Vanilla CoM. It's also really linear, with a bunch of missions you have a choice between but really you have to do them all anyway.

I once read somewhere that there was a plan to give Dream Drop Distance a HD remake. I thought it strange to make a remake so soon after it came out, but I thought of a way it could work. Maybe they can make it part of one more HD collection with remakes of the DS games. I would hope that the gameplay is improved as part of the package.

I realize this is super late but eh, effort.

New Sleights

Attack

Ragnarok: You've seen it before. In the GBA version, this was basically "instant kill everything in front of you". 3 attack cards totaling 7-9.

Magic

Thunder Raid: Fire/Blizzard Raid but with Thunder. Thunder + two attack cards.

Homing Blizzara: Like it says, a homing Blizzara. Aero + Blizzard + any magic card.

Mega Flare: Lethal Frame, but for random encounters! Mega Flare hits all enemies for powerful fire damage, often destroying entire encounters in one hit. Mushu and two Fires.

Shock Impact: A Simba attack that can Stop enemies. Simba + two attack cards.

Magnet Spiral: Pulls enemies close, then attacks them. Two Gravities and an attack card.

Warp: Has a chance of instantly killing enemies. No experience from this, but you can still get cards, and it (along with its cousin) are the only way to get the White Mushroom enemy card. Stop + two Aeros.

Teleport: Appear near an enemy while stunning it. I guess it could be useful. Two magic cards + Peter Pan, or Stop + Aero + an item card.

Holy: Beams of light hit an enemy and enemies near them. Was incredibly useful in the GBA, less so now. Mega Ether + Megalixer + any item card.

Summon

Twinkle Lv2/Lv3: More healing! Tinker Bell is still great at healing large amounts of HP, but since cards can be broken, I prefer Cures. Two or three Tinker Bells.

Friend

Spiral Wave Lv2/Lv3: Basically Sonic Blade for Ariel. Last longers/more powerful with more cards. Two or three Ariels.

Hummingbird Lv2/Lv3: Another one of those friend cards that can create Moogle Points. Peter Pan hits enemies really quickly but without much power. Two or three Peter Pans.

And again!

New Sleights

Magic

Reflect Raid: Strike Raid, but on impact the Keyblade splits apart and does a scattershot around. Cloud and two attack cards.

Synchro: Sets the HP of nearby enemies to match the HP of the targeted enemy. Cure + Gravity + Aero.

Bind: Freezes enemies in place, but they can still attack. Longer lasting but less useful Stop. Gravity + Stop + any magic card.

Aqua Splash: An aimable cone of ice damage. Blizzard + Fire + Aero.

Warpinator: Single-target Warp with a higher chance of success. Gravity + Stop + Aero.

Freeze: Freezes enemies in place. Attacking frozen enemies does significant damage. Two Blizzards + Stop.

Summon

Flare Breath Lv2/Lv3: Aimable cone of fire. Size and damage increase on number of cards. Two or three Mushus.

Friend

Stardust Blitz: Press triangle at the right times to send Donald's fireballs at enemies! You can do this up to three times. Just Donald + Fire.

Ferocious Lunge Lv2/Lv3: This is the GBA version of Beast's Sleight. He lunges forward and does large damage in a straight line. I'm including it mainly because it was on the list I was given. Two or three Beasts.

Furious Volley Lv2/Lv3: Re:CoM version of Beast's Sleight. You and Beast play volleyball with enemies. Two or three Beasts.

New Sleights

Attack

Trinity Limit: Mega Flare, but not resistable by anything. Very powerful, but difficult to pull out. Any mixture of Donald, Goofy, and an attack card that is NOT Goofy, Donald, and then an attack card. (That one triggers Wild Crush instead.)

Magic

Judgment: You saw this plenty in the videos. Strike Raid, but it goes and attacks the same enemy multiple times. Aero + two attack cards.

Raging Storm: Sora gets surrounded by pillars of fire, and you can move him around. Aero + two Fires.
