Organization XIII - Luxord (The Gambler of Fate)

The fight with Luxord is not your typical battle. Instead of depleting his HP like you normally would, this battle features the Time Gauge. Both Sora and Luxord have Time Gauges at the top of the screen. The first person to run out of time is the loser. Unfortunately, the battle can also end if Sora’s HP reaches 0, so you need to be watching your Time Gauge AND your HP Gauge in this fight.

To deplete Luxord’s time, you’ll need to do more than just inflict damage, though dealing out standard attacks does lower his time to some degree. You’ll need to essentially see through all of Luxord’s ruses and react accordingly. When the battle begins, Luxord will most likely transform Sora into a die or a card. There really isn’t any way to prevent this, so just approach him and continuously attack to stave him off. When Sora’s Drive Gauge depletes, he’ll transform back into his normal form.

Luxord attacks a lot by using giant playing cards. You can use the Flip Reaction Command to destroy the cards and deplete some of Luxord’s Time Gauge as a result. If Luxord ever transforms himself into a card, follow him with your eyes and use the Flip Reaction Command on him to really take a chunk out of his Time Gauge.
As the battle continues, Luxord will scatter cards all over the ground. He can warp in and out of these cards and attack with them as he goes. Try to anticipate his movements and interrupt him with a combo or two to stave off his assault.

Being a gambler by nature, the fight with Luxord wouldn’t be complete without a little bit of Roulette. Use the Begin Game Reaction Command when prompted to enter a brief game with Luxord. The commands in your Command Menu will be replaced with X’s and O’s. The goal is to press the X Button when selecting an O and not an X. If you are successful, this will deal a serious blow to Luxord’s Time Gauge. If you get it wrong, the game with backfire and your own Time Gauge will suffer. Plus, you’ll be transformed back into a die or a card!
