One of Loss' most common attacks is his Triple Slashes, which has him perform three strikes in quick succession with his Lance, cov🍎ering a vast area in front and aro𓄧und himself with each slash.

This move is telegraphed by Loss pointing their Lance downward at an angle briefly before he swiftly swings it upward in an arc-like motion. After that, he will perform another slash. This time it will be a wide swing that travels in front of him and extends all the way behind him.

Then, he will finish the attack off by plunging his Lance forward with tremendous force and speed. As soon as you see him point his Lance downward, begin backdashing to evade the first swing, then start backdashing again to dodge the second one.

After this, you will have to jump and dash backward to avoid his plunging attack, or you can pass underneath him to get behind him. We prefer the latter method, which allows you to land several hits of your own before backing off to prepare for his other attacks.

Next up is another common attack of Loss', his Linear Gale Discs, which has him fire off several disc-like projectiles of wind that travel in a straight line horizontally across the screen.

These projectiles are launched high in the air, so you can just walk beneath them and avoid them fine. Take this opportunity to run up to Loss and land several uncontested hits of your own before creating space to prepare for what's next.

Another variant of his projectile-based attack is his Sporadic Gale Discs, which has him stack several Gale Discs vertically before launching them forward at slightly different angles.

Like the last one, these aren't quite low enough to hit you on the ground, so you can avoid them by simply walking underneath them. Get close to Loss, then unleash several attacks before retreating to set up for defense.

If Loss is out of position for one of his attacks, he will fly away, disappearing into the sky before suddenly reappearing in the middle of the arena. This won't deal any damage to you unless you run into him, so maintain your position until he comes back into the arena.

He will often use this before using his Triple Slashes or Galefeather Tuft attack, but he can also do just about any of his other attacks, so be prepared for anything after he flies away.

Loss will periodically launch several Gold Feathers into the ground at great speed and at a slight angle in front ofඣ himself, stack⛎ing several on top of one another.

This move is odd, as you can simply run behind him as soon as you see him jump into the air, and he will continue his attack while facing the complete opposite direction. These Galefeathers won't explode or anything, so feel free to land several airborne attacks on him.

Unlike the previous Galefeather attack of Loss', this one is much harder to evade as he launches many Galefeathers from his wings, littering the ground and walls with Gold Feathers.

Like the last attack, however, these Galefeathers won't explode or deal damage after they hit the ground, so you can stand in a safe area and evade damage altogether.

However, if you have the HP to spare, you can take a hit of one of the Galefeathers and use your Invincibility Frames to land several attacks on Loss if you don't just stand in an area where the Galefeathers aren't landing and wait out the attack.

Lastly, we have his Ride the Wind attack, which has him quickly Dash across the screen with his Lance pointed outward in front of him, turning himself into a speeding projectile and dealing massive damage on contact.

This move is telegraphed by Loss holding his Lance out in front of himself and channeling the wind. You will see wind start to gather at the opposite end of the stage, straight ahead of Loss and directly behind you.

After a short period, Loss will Dash forward to carry out the attack. To evade this attack, Slide underneath Loss as he Dashes forward, placing you behind him. You can then run behind him and get a few hits in before backing off.
