If the purple Data Bar at the top of the screen should fill up to one unit as Sora stands in the homing data stream Vexen summoned earlier, a Clone Sora in the style of Sora's [[Antiform]] is created. This is merely a distraction method, but the Clone Sora's attacks are powerful and fast like Antiform itself, and its power and HP will even increase as the Data Bar fills from zero to five over the course of the battle. Target the Clone Sora first - otherwise, any combos Sora attempts to use against Vexen will be likely to be interrupted. Worse, Clone Sora can trap Sora in a combo that takes away all his HP. Defeating a Clone Sora will relinquish [[MP]] orb [[prizes]] to restore any MP Sora has used up. Then continue to strike Vexen with physical combos or Fire spells. Vexen will only use attacks previously seen for the rest of the battle, so utilize the same strategies to avoid them as before. Vexen is invincible when creating a Clone Sora, so he may be bound to stop/delay any of Sora's assaults whenever he gets the chance with one unit of data collected. | If the purple Data Bar at the top of the screen should fill up to one unit as Sora stands in the homing data stream Vexen summoned earlier, a Clone Sora in the style of Sora's [[Antiform]] is created.

Sora should immediately switch to [[Wisdom Form]] to attack Vexen with Fire spells, since this will boost the spell's power | Sora should immediately switch to [[Wisdom Form]] to attack Vexen with Fire spells, since this will boost the spell's power. However, because this battle has an increased chance of activating Antiform, either spend time beforehand lowering Sora's Anti Points, or be prepared to go on the evasive. Remember, Antiform can't be used to defeat Vexen's shield or Clone Sora due to the lack of a finisher, through attacking them anyways can get Antiform to expire quicker. An [[Ether]] should be used right before Sora goes below zero MP rather than afterwards. This will increase the amount of Fire spells that can be launched before Sora reverts to normal. | ||
Vexen can also occasionally use a move similar to his Diamond Dust sleight for a full screen effect to briefly blind and distract Sora, which deals no damage, but after the ice storm clears up, his data stream will have teleported right under Sora without notice. Be on the move constantly when this happens. | Vexen can also occasionally use a move similar to his Diamond Dust sleight for a full screen effect to briefly blind and distract Sora, which deals no damage, but after the ice storm clears up, his data stream will have teleported right under Sora without notice.

The battle against Vexen's Data Rematch will flow similarly to the battle against his Absent Silhouette. The only differences will be the amount of HP he has, and the pattern in which he uses his attacks. | The battle against Vexen's Data Rematch will flow similarly to the battle against his Absent Silhouette.

Vexen begins Icy Ensemble when he has 5.5 HP bars left. He becomes invincible as the screen darkens and creates four ice blocks around himself that orbit around which he will try hurl at Sora back and forth. Staying near Vexen during Icy Ensemble will most likely inflict major damage at lower levels and at low maximum HP, causing a one-hit KO if [[Second Chance]] and [[Once More]] are not equipped. Vexen will fly around chasing/ramming into Sora occasionally and may even hurl all four of his ice blocks at once. Vexen during the attack's final moments will cause a large icicle that erupts from the center of the arena, with its width covering nearly the whole area. | Vexen begins Icy Ensemble when he has 5.5 HP bars left.

[[Fantasia]] can be used to avoid damage throughout Icy Ensemble by delaying the [[Reaction Commands]] and taking advantage of the invincibility to attack normally with no fear of retaliation, although Sora will need to use an Ether and perform Comet again to last through the whole technique if his MP isn't high enough at the time. Vexen's shield cannot be broken during the DM, though it can still be attacked and brought down to 1 HP. The final attack usually requires a long-lasting invincible bypass, but finding a way to stay in the air for long periods of time around the edges of the battlefield can also avoid the attack. Outside of long invincible bypasses like Donald's Comet, deft dodging, solid focus on Vexen's actions and precise movement is needed to avoid most of the attack's beginning portions, and Sora must keep his distance at all times. | [[Fantasia]] can be used to avoid damage throughout Icy Ensemble by delaying the [[Reaction Commands]] and taking advantage of the invincibility to attack normally with no fear of retaliation, although Sora will need to use an Ether and perform Comet again to last through the whole technique if his MP isn't high enough at the time.
