Royalguard Style Overview
This unique style allows your character to easily block and counter an opponents’ attack with ease, as well as earn yourself a few bonus orbs and style points in the process. With the press of a single button you can repel an enemies or even a boss’ attack and knock them off guard, allowing you to take advantage and dice them up while they are vulnerable.

When you successfully block an attack, you will build up what’s called a “Release Attack” which is used as a gauge to determine how much damage you have absorbed and enable you to harness it and deal it out as a concentrated and potentially deadly attack upon your foe.
