In ''Street Fighter V: Champion Edition'', Gill must stun his opponent with a close-range energy ball of light to initiate the move. If it connects, six wings form on Gill's back as he unleashes his full power, sending off a massive wave of energy in all directions to obliterate his opponent. The move is also unblockable when either he or she blocks the initial energy ball and they remained getting hit by the move.

Description

Executed by performing two quarter-circle forward motions and pressing kick, Gill floats to the center of the screen, and just before the attack properly triggers, he declares, "Let me be the blesser of all souls!". During this time, the attack can be stopped if the opponent hits him; in this case, the Super Gauge Stock is not emptied.[1] Once there, he sprouts six white wings and radiates circular waves of multicolored energy which reach all over the screen. In Street Fighter V: Champion Edition, Gill must stun his opponent with a close-range energy ball of light to initiate the move. If it connects, six wings form on Gill's back as he unleashes his full power, sending off a massive wave of energy in all directions to obliterate his opponent. The move is also unblockable when either he or she blocks the initial energy ball and they remained getting hit by the move.

Tactics

Seraphic Wing is unavoidable, and cannot be parried. If blocked, it can inflict up to around 25% damage, whereas not blocking can result in an instant KO.[1] The damage inflicted seems to be dependent on where the opponent is on the screen.[1] It can deal up to 20 hits, but after the attack finishes and the wings have disappeared, there is a large window in which he is helpless and vulnerable to attack.[1] However, the only way to deal with this attack without being damaged is to hit him out of it before he starts.
