A set of sword and spear techniques passed down in Wolfkrone, a militant
country in Europe.
Wolfkrone's philosophy of "indomitable fortitude" is reflected in its traditional
fighting style, which involves saving up one's strength while searching for the
enemy's weaknesses, then releasing that strength in a concentrated attack at the
right moment. This technique has driven back countless foes of the nation.
Opponents who maintain their distance suffer a fatal thrust of the spear, while
those who draw close are slashed with the swift attacks of the sword. It is an
incredibly robust counterattack strategy that effectively utilizes both long and
short weapons. Additionally, landing an attack with all one's strength imbues the
weapons with fighting spirit, and this resolute conviction can be channeled into
powerful final moves called "regalia arts" which can instantly turn the tide of
battle. Honed for generations, Große Erbschaft can be considered the very symbol
of the Wolfkrone Kingdom's stalwart resolve.
Style Lesson: Beginner
Deal Damage at a Distance with Vertical Spear Attacks
This style specializes in attacking the opponent from a distance with
long-reaching spear attacks. Don't rely too much on the spear. though, as all
spear attacks are vertical attacks that the opponent can easily evade with an
8-way run. You can stop them from doing so by sprinkling in some horizontal
sword attacks first.
Using Thunder Wolf(33_66_99B+K) at the distance from which
you start the round or Black Crystal (3B) while up close will deal a large
amount of damage. If you find your opponent dodging these attacks with an 8-way
run, you can punish them with moves like Dual Flame (6AA), Lightning Fire
(33_66_99A), or Double Falcon (33_66_99[A+B]). If
your opponent won't let up their guard, hit them hard with Blazing Shadow
(1A).

Crush Your Opponent's Guard from a Crouching State
Crushing your opponent's guard with middle attacks and low attacks in this style
is easiest while crouching. Use Hilt Strike (3A) or Unwavering Flame
(22_88A) to stop your opponent in their tracks while shifting to a
crouch. From there, you can strike them with the low attack Dark Kick (while
crouching 3K) or the middle attack White Torch (while rising BA).

Vie for Victory with Regalia Arts
This style makes use of unique special attacks called regalia arts. By performing
certain attacks, you can imbue your sword or spear with a powerful aura, known
as Sword Regalia and Spear Regalia, respectively. You can then use this regalia to
unleash mighty game-changing regalia arts. Bear in mind that regalia does not
carry over across rounds, so make good use of it. Also, gaining a regalia that you
already have will instead charge the soul gauge, except for when you are soul
charged.
The easiest regalia arts to perform are Royal Blade Feral Wolf(with Sword Regalia
6AAA) and Royal Spear Biting Wolf (with Spear Regalia 6AAB), as
not only do they deal great damage, but they allow you to stay on the offensive
even when guarded. Additionally, Royal Spear Exalted Fang (with Spear Regalia
while crouching 3KBB) is a high-damaging low attack that's
great against guarding opponents.

Use Focused Attacks to Gain Regalia
This style will also give you access to focused attacks, which are difficult to pull
off but very powerful. They're performed by holding a button for a set period of
time and then releasing it. These moves also net you regalia corresponding to the
weapon you used to attack, so once you've mastered the basics, consider
incorporating these attacks into your playstyle to really up your game.
Style Lesson: Master
Master Focused Attacks
Focused attacks award you regalia upon hit, giving you more opportunities to
perform regalia arts. They are performed by holding a button for a set amount of
time before releasing it (cX), and inputting certain commands when a move triggers
allows you to perform different moves. Once you familiarize yourself with the
following commands, you'll be better prepared to handle different situations.
cA and cB: These attacks leave minimal openings when guarded and are ideal for feints.
cA6 and cB6: These deal heavy damage and have good reach.
cA4 and cB4: These have a slow start—up but count as break attacks, allowing for follow-up attacks.
While crouching cA and cB: Powerful options to counter an opponent's attack or crush their guard from a crouching state.

Strategies for Performing Focused Attacks
Pulling off a focused attack in the heat of battle is extremely difficult. Until you're
comfortable with this style, it's best to limit your practicing to certain situations.
However, there are some tricks you can employ to make them easier to pull off.
To perform focused attacks, you need time enough to hold the appropriate
button, but you can do this while performing a separate move to more easily
integrate the focused attack. For example, when using Dual Flame (6AA) to
stop an opponent's 8—way run, you can hold the input for the second attack,
(making the move's input 6A[A]), and then release it after the attack to
activate Solar Arc (cA). Additionally, if you use an 8-way run to evade
an opponent's vertical attack, you can perform Power Declared
(22_88B+K) and hold B (making the move's input 22_88[B]+K) to follow up with Empyrean Reproach (cB).
Incorporating focused attacks into combos like this is a great way to
make use of them.
Note that while holding a button you won't be able to use any attacks that require
that button, but you will have access to moves that use K, and you can still
escape throws with K.

Tips
The attack is best incorporated into a combo to increase its damage. It puts you
at a distance, so use that to your advantage by holding a button to charge a
focused attack.
Soul Charge
Dominate with Powerful Soul Charge Combos
When activating a soul charge, you can continue the offensive against your
opponent and stop their 8-way run with moves like Fire's Edge (while soul
charged AAAB), or Howling Blitz (while soul charged33_66_99AB). If you successfully stop your opponent in their
tracks, you can then follow up with the high-damaging Vermillion Stone (while
soul charged 33_66_99BBB).

Gain Access to More Moves that Grant Regalia
Using a soul charge will also increase the opportunities you have to unleash
regalia arts. After a soul charge, you can use Volcanic Splitter (while soul
charged BAA) to gain Sword Regalia upon hit, or Fanged Reproach (while
soul charged 6AB) to gain Spear Regalia upon hit. Additionally, Calamitous
Sword (while soul charged 214A) and Calamitous Spear (while soul
charged 214B) will grant you regalia even if they don't connect.

Reversal Edge
Following Up with A
This attack prevents the opponent from moving sideways (K, 2, or 8). It
doesn't deal much damage, but you can combo from it if it lands as a lethal hit. By
using [A], you can shift to Calamitous Sword (cA) after the attack and gain Sword
Regalia as well.
Following Up with B
This is the attack you'll want to land the most due to its high damage. It shifts to
an attack throw upon hit, but if you hold [B] during the throw, you can combo it
with moves like Moonlit Dance (cB6).
Following Up with K
An attack that sends the opponent flying. It doesn't do much damage, but it
doesn't leave you wide open when guarded. Performing it near the edge of the
stage is a great way to knock the opponent out of the ring or perform a wall
combo. Use [K] to shift to Calamitous Spear after the attack and gain Spear
Regalia.
Side Stepping
This action counts as a jump, which means that even if you are hit during it, you
may only take a small amount of damage.
