Darkness Illusion: Difference between revisions

When activated, Meta Knight gains an extra pair of wings, lifts his sword, and summons a lightning bolt that creates a cross-shaped burst. If he traps anyone, he'll then proceed to slice the opponent at multiple angles, similar to [[Great Aether]], finishing with a final hit that launches the opponent sideways with a different camera angle if all opponents are caught.

This move resembles {{s|wikirby|Upper Calibur}}, a move Meta Knight uses in ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby Star Allies}}'', with the addition of the extra wings and a flash of lightning as opposed to an ascending slash. The pose Meta Knight takes when summoning his sword is a pose commonly associated with opponents of his type, appearing as either a mere up stab or as a summoning act. The cross-lightning both resembles Meta Knight infused with the Zap element in ''Kirby Star Allies'' and the animation for [[Mach Tornado]] in ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby Super Star Ultra}}''. The pose he takes after landing the final strike resembles his ''{{s|wikirby|Kirby Air Ride}}'' render.

*Darkness Illusion bears a resemblance to {{s|wikipedia|Morrigan Aensland}}'s own attack of the same name from the [[Capcom]]-produced fighting game ''{{s|wikipedia|Darkstalkers}}''. Both involve launching the opponent upwards, assaulting them with a clone, then sending them away in a final blow.
