Game:Master Xehanort

Master Xehanort appears as a boss in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. In Terra's story, he is fought twice in a row. The first fight is against both Master Xehanort and Vanitas, but the fight is ended prematurely, and the second fight is the penultimate fight of Terra's story: a one-on-one duel between Terra and Master Xehanort.

First Battle
Terra will fight both Master Xehanort and Vanitas two-on-one. Vanitas should be the primary target as Xehanort will mostly dodge and keep a distance from Terra. In combat, Xehanort will periodically teleport in front of Terra and perform quick combos before launching an ice spell that can freeze him. Xehanort isn't very difficult and after sustaining minor damage, the battle will end.

Second Battle
The second battle is the true battle against Master Xehanort. Like the previous battle, Xehanort will keep a distance, but now has access to wide-ranged magic spells. Master Xehanort utilizes the quick combo and ice spell from the previous battle but can now also fire the ice spell without the combo, in addition to a powerful overhead thunder spell. Master Xehanort can cast a powerful earth spell, causing a huge piece of land to rise under Terra, lifting him upward and damaging him. All of his attacks, including magic-based ones, can be dodged with the right timing. Xehanort's most dangerous attacks are his Keyblade spiral and his teleport combo. The former, while relatively easy to avoid, will deal massive damage if it connects. The latter attack is more unpredictable—when Terra attacks, Xehanort can simply teleport away and attack with magic.

After landing a successful combo, Master Xehanort will hold Terra onto the ground by the shoulder, at which point must be pressed repeatedly in order to break free. Failure to do so will allow Master Xehanort to attack with a powerful Blizzard spell. On rare occasions, he will teleport directly behind Terra and continually attack with warping Keyblade combos. Cure commands and Shotlocks ease this battle significantly.
