Dark Overview
Dark is the CX defense main blade from PerseusDark, using wave-shaped blades that spread out and disperse incoming hits. It is a respectable defensive pick within the CX system, and its anti-attack combos with the Charge assist blade genuinely hold up.
Strengths
- + Wave blades soak and disperse attacks instead of catching them
- + Good defensive weight at just over 30 grams
- + Dark plus Charge on 5-60 Kick is a proven anti-attack combo
- + Works with any lock chip, so you can add metal chip weight
Weaknesses
- − Struggles to outlast dedicated stamina blades once it survives the storm
- − Wins slowly, so it can be rushed down by the hardest hitters
- − Defense-first design has little KO threat of its own
Build Dark with Charge underneath so nothing sticks out to catch hits, on a low 5-60 or 6-60 ratchet with Kick or a needle-style defensive bit, and launch flat to hold the center. Bumper is the stock alternative if you want more rim bulk. Aim it at attack combos you can survive and outspin, and avoid pure stamina matchups. In a 3v3 deck it is your CX anti-attack wall.
