Pinpoint Cut's air variant can go through block if landed from behind, and the ground variant can do so as well if you circle around it. does infinite damage, making it the sixth move in the main game that is able to one-shot. (The others being, ultimate moves, as well as ultimate moves.) The explosion following the cutscene when hits, has a very large AoE, instantly killing anybody else in range of the slash.

Patch history
is the first character to break the 'Hero to Villain' character addition process. 's awakening is the second best in terms of damage, excluding. is the third character to have cutscene moves, the second being, and the first being. is currently in first place for best (discovered) inescapable combo dealing 70% damage.(67.3% Without Blade Ignition). used to have a different passive as a placeholder. For the Dark Souls references: ultimate music has Gwyn, Lord of Cinder's motif from the first Dark Souls game. is a reference from the Soul of Cinder in Dark Souls 3, more specifically his infamous 5-hit Combo. It simply caused the next move used after killing an opponent to have no cooldown, allowing it to be reused immediately. This was likely changed due to it being similar to Destructive Cyborg's passive and being overpowered by easy 100% Unescapable combos with double Quick Slice. moveset used to be a lot different in it's pre-release compared to when it finally released into early access. Quick Slice used to have the screen be shaking aggressively (Or maybe because of the reduced screenshake option was not active), along with having a much slower animation. Atmos Cleave used to be completely stationary, not rising up the air at all. This also caused the slashes to create slash marks on the ground, before this was changed, and the slash marks were removed. This is the first character whose awakening transformation has a finisher, turning the enemy into ashes if they are killed by the large horizontal slash.
