## Moves

**Dash Blade** / **Dash Attack** (突進攻撃) / **Dash Slash** (突進斬擊): Bit jumps high, and while falling, he will stop midair when he is in the same height as the player and charge forward with his saber. The saber protects his body from frontal attacks.

**Decoy Flare** / **Homing Projectile** (ホーミング弾), (誘導彈): Bit launches a projectile that follows the player. It can cause a decent amount of damage to the player.

**Binding Ring** (拘束リング), (拘束環): Bit generates a ring shaped projectile from his arm and throws it forward. It will move back and forth across the room, changing its direction twice before disappearing. It may also change its height when changing its direction. The ring can bind the player if they run into it.

Variant: Bit with Shield

Bit with Shield retains his original three moves, can perform Shield Dash, and can use the Shield to block certain projectiles.

**Shield Dash**: Christmas Bit will pull out his shield and perform a dash, which is slower than Dash Blade but can deal huge damage.

Variant: Christmas Bit

Christmas Bit retains his original three moves and his Shield Dash. Enemies also enter the room to assist him.

## Strategy

* With the proper timing, the player can jump high or wall jump to make Bit jump to the same vertical height before performing a forward slash
* If the player cannot out maneuver this, the forward slash can be avoided by crouching or dashing
* Bit with Shield can actually deflect certain projectile attacks. To overcome this, player can use bombard or launcher type weapons that can emit splash damage upon contact with the shield
* The player can actually hear a charging sound effect before Bit unleashes the Shield Dash attack

## Trivia

* Bit's (Boss) Binding Ring in this game is slower compared to the original boss battle.
* The effect of binding ring in this game is quite different:
	+ In the original boss battle: when X gets caught while in midair, he falls the down to ground and gets locked for a few seconds
	+ In this game: when the player gets caught while in midair, they get the status debuff stun lock and stays in midair, showing an animation of getting shocked
* The chip's skill is much slower in movement, requiring the player to use it with precision, especially in PVP.
