Counter Rush is a technique that appears in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep and Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance. It allows the user to unleash a flurry of blows after a successful block.

Mechanics[edit]

In Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Counter Rush is a Reprisal command exclusive to Ventus that must be installed under a Block-type defense command. It is triggered by pressing X, Circle in Japanese releases, when prompted after a successful block. It has a maximum level of 4 and fills the Command Gauge by 40%. Counter Rush can only be used while on the ground and when the attacking enemy is nearby. Ventus is invincible while using Counter Rush.

In Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, Counter Rush is a Reprisal command exclusive to Sora that must be installed under a Block-type defense command. It is triggered by pressing A when prompted after a successful block. Counter Rush grants +1 to both Strength and Defense when attached to a Dream Eater recipe. When used, Sora attacks three times while moving forward. Counter Rush can be used no matter how far the attacking enemy is.

Learning Counter Rush[edit]

  • Ventus can obtain Counter Rush from a chest at the Fountain Court.
  • Ventus can purchase Counter Rush from the Command Shop for 1200 munny once six worlds have been cleared or the command has already been obtained elsewhere.
