Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Crush: Gildarts' signature Magic; Crush is devastating Caster-type Magic that shatters anything it comes into contact with. It can be used to splinter Magic, cancel out its effects, weaken Magic's strength, or deflect it. However, it appears difficult to handle, even for a powerful individual like Gildarts. Crush's effects can sometimes be seen as the target breaking into cubes.
*Disassemble: A non-lethal spell of Crush to break apart a person into small, doll-like versions of themselves instead of destroying them. In time, the target will revert to its original form, but Gildarts can hasten this process if he wants to.
*Crushing Evil, Spreading the Truth: Empyrean: Gildarts first negates the spell cast by his foe and then hits them with a powerful strike, imbued with Crush, capable of launching said opponent great distances.
*All Crush: Gildarts attacks his opponent with Crush in the form of an energy blast.
*Crushing Evil, Spreading the Truth: Absolute Heaven: Gildarts hits his opponent with a very powerful strike imbued with Crush capable of causing an explosion upon impact
