Finishing MovesEdit
After the Renzokuken sequence there's a chance to perform a finishing blow.
[1]
Meaning, there's a (Crisis Level * ~23.6%) chance to perform a finishing blow. Which finishing blow is used is not affected by Crisis Level, but rather has a fixed chance of occurring depending on which weapon Squall has equipped. All finishing blows are physical attacks and can do critical damage.[1]

Rough DivideEdit
Rough Divide (ラフディバイド, Rafu Dibaido?) is Squall's initial finishing move, as well as the weakest. He charges forward and slices an enemy with a diagonal upwards cut, causing an explosion that damages them. Squall uses a backhanded slash similar to this in the game's opening when he scars Seifer.
Fated CircleEdit
Fated Circle (フェイテッドサークル, Feiteddo Sākuru?) is Squall's second finishing move. Squall jumps up into the air while charging energy into his gunblade. At the peak of his jump he spins in a circle, releasing a shockwave that damages all enemies.
Blasting ZoneEdit
Blasting Zone (プラスティングゾーン, Burasutingu Zōn?) is Squall's third finishing move. Squall raises his gunblade overhead, charges up and extends a pillar of energy to the outer atmosphere, then slams the gunblade into the ground to hit all enemies with the pillar.
Lion HeartEdit
Lion Heart (エンドオブハート, Endo obu Hāto?, lit. "End of Heart") is Squall's ultimate finishing move, and can only be used after acquiring his ultimate weapon (also called the Lionheart). It strikes a single opponent nineteen times, causing massive damage. After Zell's Duel, it is the strongest Limit Break in the game, accounting for the plus damage of the Renzokuken's four to eight hits. During optimal conditions, a total of 269,973 points of damage is possible in one attack round. Lion Heart can easily do 9999 damage per hit even with average strength and no Vit 0, making it ideal for low level runs where its damage will not be hindered by the damage cap.
