If Young Xehanort teleports three times in the air, he will perform his four-part green slash combo. He will perform 2 green swings of his Keyblade, pause, swing 2 more times, teleport to Sora's opposite side, swing 2 times, pause, then finally swing 3 times. Carefully block each set, then reprisal the third hit of the last set for a chance to attack. | If Young Xehanort teleports three times in the air, he will perform his four-part green slash combo.

If Young Xehanort makes an arc of ice crystals above him, he is using his Blizzard attack. A blue dome will briefly flash around Young Xehanort, then the ice crystals will home in on Sora, and may freeze him if they connect. These ice crystals can be blocked. He will cast 2 sets of Blizzard before moving on to his next move, but striking him quickly with Thunder when the blue dome flashes will prevent the second Blizzard cast. Alternatively, it is possible to Airstep to him and attack to knock him into the air, but the homing Blizzards will still need to be dealt with - air slide back to Sora's previous position and block, then Airstep back to Young Xehanort to continue attacking him. | If Young Xehanort makes an arc of ice crystals above him, he is using his Blizzard attack.

If neither is done and both sets of Blizzards have to be blocked, be careful of whichever attack Young Xehanort follows up with - he will usually choose either his triple guard-break combo (listed below), or his four-part green combo. | ||
If Young Xehanort teleports three times in the same direction on the ground, he will do his triple guard-break combo. His first strike will break Sora's guard, then he will do 2 swings and 1 guard break swing, followed by 2 more swings and 1 guard break swing. Block each hit and use risk dodge each time after being guard broken. After risk dodging for the third time, there is an opportunity to attack. | If Young Xehanort teleports three times in the same direction on the ground, he will do his triple guard-break combo with his whip.

If Young Xehanort jumps into the air dives with a green spinning attack, he will do his triple spin combo. He will do 3 dive spins with a small pause between each, before finishing with a quick fourth strike downward. Guard the three spins and the fourth hit, then reprisal for a chance to attack. | If Young Xehanort jumps into the air and dives with a green spinning attack, he will do his triple spin combo.

If Young Xehanort appears with a large clock below him, he will swing his whip once at Sora and attempt to time-stop him. This swing is unblockable, so dodge it. If Young Xehanort misses this attack then he will slowly walk sideways, but he is NOT open to attack yet. He will do a small teleport and continue walking, at which point it is safe to Airstep to him and attack. Alternatively, after missing his clock whip swing, Young Xehanort may quickly teleport 3 times before standing still. If he does this instead of the walk, then Airstep to him after the three teleports as he will be open to attack. | If Young Xehanort appears with a large clock below him, he will swing his whip once at Sora and attempt to time-stop him - if it lands, then the screen will go negative for a moment as Sora receives a barrage of attacks.

* Young Xehanort will also perform this move if his revenge value is hit - in that case dodge, but there will not be an opportunity to attack. | * Young Xehanort will also perform this move if his revenge value is hit - in that case dodge, but there will not be an opportunity to attack. | ||
