Strike Raid (ストライクレイド Sutoraiku Reido ) is a technique introduced in Kingdom Hearts. It is a ranged attack that allows the user to hurl the Keyblade at enemies.
Mechanics
In Kingdom Hearts, Strike Raid is a Special Ability that lets Sora throw the Keyblade up to five times, summoning the Keyblade back to his hand after each toss; he is invulnerable for the duration of the attack. Selecting the Strike command from the last command bar executes the initial attack, an additional three attacks can be added by selecting the Raid (レイド Reido ) command each time it becomes available, and the final, more powerful finishing strike is executed by selecting the Judgment (ジャッジメント Jajjimento ) command when it appears, for a total of five strikes. The ability costs 3 AP to equip and 2 MP to use.
In Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, Strike Raid is an attack sleight. It allows the user to throw the Keyblade once, with it returning like a boomerang. The attack damages and stuns enemies on impact. The card combination for Strike Raid is:
In Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, Strike Raid is an action ability that can be accessed from the Limit menu while in Limit Form. It lets the user throw the Keyblade up to five times, summoning the Keyblade back to his hand after each toss. After the initial attack, an additional three attacks can be added by executing the Raid Reaction Command each time it appears, and the final, more powerful finishing strike is executed with the Judgment Reaction Command when it appears. Strike Raid's flight path alters a bit in this game, and Sora is also invincible throughout the whole attack. HP Gain causes each successful hit to restore HP. The ability costs 65 MP to use.

Trivia
- In Kingdom Hearts, when Sora manages to aim Strike Raid at a wall, he will bounce back with his Keyblade instantly returning to him (despite the fact that the Keyblade is long out of his hand depending on the distance), but he can still continue the sequence of commands like normal. This continues in most subsequent games as well.
- Also in Kingdom Hearts, Sora will throw the Keyblade in an underhanded fashion towards any airborne opponents (though it still may miss by flying underneath them depending on how close they are). Subsequent sers of this technique to not have this change in animation ever since.
- During the battle against Roxas in Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, it is possible to steal his Keyblades for a short while with the Duel Stance Reaction Command. Using Strike Raid at this time will magically hurl Roxas's Keyblades along with Sora's.
- In some games, the Judgment command has been made into a command separate from Strike Raid.
