Executioner

The Executioner is a recurring Giant Enemy in the Infinity Blade trilogy. It wears the gray version of the Raulum helmet and uses the Wormwood. The Executioner shares its voice with all other Giant Enemies in Infinity Blade.
==Location Infinity Blade I==
The Executioner can appear in The Courtyard, in the Prison, at the Central Gate, and in the Atrium. He can also be found on round 11 of Survival Mode. And can be played in the new discontinued Multiplayer Mode, after the Warden. 
==Combat Infinity Blade I and II==
The Executioner is a Giant sized enemy, with a similar fighting style to similar to other large titans. He has long drawn out and telegraphed attacks, giving plenty of time to dodge, but if he manages to hit you, he can deal substantial damage, so dodging and shielding are the safest options. 
===Stepbacks Infinity Blade I and II===
The Executioner has three Stepbacks
Jump and Head-butt
Analysis	Analysis	Analysis
In this Stepback the Executioner jumps backwards, and then jumps forwards landing in the center, he then finishes with a headbutt to the center.
This Stepback can be avoided in multiple ways, the most optimal is to dodge in either direction to avoid his jumping crush, then when Executioner raises his head to go for the head-butt, a Stab prompt will appear on his stomach, hitting it will allow you to interrupt his Stepback and deal extra damage. Alternatively, dodging to the left or right for both attacks will allow you to avoid this Stepback with ease. Shielding is not advisable here, as the crush can go through your guard, so if you are going to shield, make sure you time it well, and have a corresponding elemental Defense Shield or gem.

Upper-cut Slam 1
Analysis	Analysis	Analysis
In this Stepback the Executioner move's back for an upward slash, striking the center. Then he follows up with a two-handed slam.
This Stepback can be avoided in multiple ways. The most optimal is to dodge in any direction to avoid the upward, then right before he brings down his weapon, a stab icon will appear on Executioner's chest, hitting it will allow you to interrupt his Stepback and deal extra damage. Alternatively, one can easily dodge in either direction twice to avoid the Stepback. If you're having trouble with either of these then holding shield will also work, it's just the least efficient sense it will give you the least amount of time to strike back, and The Executioner can still deal damage if he has elemental attacks attacks, provided you don't have a corresponding elemental defence shield.

===Combat Tips Infinity Blade I and II===
The Executioner has incredibly telegraphed attacks, sometimes doing an intimidating slam in the direction he's going to strike. Because of this, his lack of moves that pierce through shields, and his lack of any special abilities, the Executioner shouldn't be much of a problem. As you can pretty easily dodge out of the way of nearly all of his attacks. But to ensure victory, you should dodge out of the way for all of his attacks except his final attack for his combo, (except during his Stepbacks, in which you should go for the Stab Icons) that way you can get a parry break which will give you the most time to strike back. Another tip is that for whatever reason the Executioner does not appear to do Stepbacks when fought in the Atrium, so fighting them there is best. 
==Infinity Blade III==
The Executioner, like most enemies in Infinity Blade III, can wield several different types of Weapons, and can also be disarmed mid fight, causing him to swap to a different weapon(s). The Executioner also makes a minor appearance at the very beginning of the Infinity Blade III, being killed instantly by Raidriar and being thrown down the stairs in front of The Worker's throne room.
