{{Translation}}
{{nihongo|'''Command Style'''|コマンドスタイル|Komando Sutairu}} is a battle system introduced in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]''. When [[Terra]], [[Ventus]], and [[Aqua]] fill up the Command Gauge with a certain type of {{c|Deck Command|BBS}}s, they can undergo a Style Change which grants increased strength and new weapon combos. There are some shared Command Styles that two or three characters can utilize, and some exclusive Styles that only one can perform. The enhanced [[Magic]] and physical attacks made available by Command Styles create more effective methods and strategies of combat.

The '''Command Style''' is a new battle system that appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep]]''. Terra, Aqua, and Ventus have times when the Command Bar at the top of their Command Menu fills up after hitting enemies they can undergo a Style Change which grants increased strength and new [[Deck Commands]]. There are certain Command Styles that all of them can change into but they have their own unique Styles that only one can perform. Command Styles allow a different method for each of them to fight with either [[Magic]] or combo attacking.


==Mechanics==
==Command Styles (LV1)==
Upon meeting certain requirements while filling up the Command Gauge, located above the Command Deck, a character may undergo a Style Change rather than executing a Finish Command. Every style change has certain requirements for activating; for example, the criteria for activating Diamond Dust is to fill part of the Command Gauge with {{c|Blizzard|element}}-type attacks.
Upon meeting certain requirements while filling up the Command Gauge (located right above the [[Command Deck]]), a character may undergo a Style Change rather than executing a finishing attack. Every style change has certain requirements for activating; an example of executing Diamond Dust would be to fill up the last remaining portion of the Command Gauge with an Ice-based attack.


While using a Level 1 Command Style, the player can further achieve a second level by filling up the Command Gauge an additional time. For example, if Ventus fills Firestorm's Command Gauge with [[Aero]]-related commands, the result will be the powerful Cyclone Command Style.
===General===
These are available to all three Keyblade warriors.
*'''Thunder Bolt''': A swift Command Style that unleashes powerful lightning upon attacks. Activated by filling the Command Gauge with Thunder-based commands.
*'''Fire Blazer''': A ranged and versatile Command Style that focuses the Keyblade to erupt in flames while attacking. Activated by filling the Command Gauge with Fire-based commands.
*'''Diamond Dust:''' An ice-based Command Style that seems to specialize in crowd-control and dealing with multiple enemies. Activated by filling the Command Gauge with Ice-based commands.
*'''Ice Blast:''' Another ice-based Command Style that uses an ice cream theme. Randomly activated by filling the Command Gauge with an Ice Cream item.


Command Styles can also be achieved through the use of [[Ice Cream]] items once the Command Style has been unlocked, with the Ice Cream immediately filling the Command Gauge upon use. Each flavor of Ice Cream will trigger a specific Command Style regardless of the Style's level, though use of any Ice Cream also carries a chance of triggering the Frozen Fortune Command Style, if it has been unlocked. Activating Command Styles in this manner does not impact the number of consecutive Style Changes that can occur before returning to the character's base state. For example, if one uses Ice Cream to activate a Level 2 Command Style without first activating a Level 1 Style, one can still transition to a second Level 2 Command Style by filling the Command Gauge appropriately.
===[[Terra]]===
[[File:500x_bbs_battle04.jpg|thumb|200px|[[Terra]] using his '''Critical Impact''' Command Style. (Known as '''Fatal Mode''' in the Japanese version.)]]
*'''Critical Impact/Fatal Mode''': An exclusive powerful Command Style for Terra that utilizes slow, but heavy hits to their maximum. Activated by filling the Command Gauge with physical-based commands.


Each Command Style replaces the basic attack combo, with Level 1 Command Styles replacing the attack command with {{nihongo|'''Surge'''|ブリッツ|Burittsu|lit. "Blitz"}}, Level 2 Command Styles replacing it with {{nihongo|'''Storm'''|バラージュ|Barāju|lit. "Barrage"}}, and Frozen Fortune replacing it with {{nihongo|'''Ice Surge'''|アイスブリッツ|Aisu Burittsu|lit. "Ice Blitz"}}. Some Level 2 Command Styles may also replace or disable Action Commands, such as by changing the dodge or block ability, and others may transform the character's weapon in some manner. Each Style has its own unique Finish Command named for the Command Style itself that triggers when the Command Gauge is filled without triggering another Command Style.
===[[Aqua]]===
*'''Magic Wish''': Her own exclusive Command Style; it utilizes the power of light to to hover her Keyblade in midair, swiftly attacking enemies while enhancing her magic capabilities as well. Activated by filling the Command Gauge with a variety of multiple magic-based commands.


==List of Command Styles==
===[[Ventus]]===
