Blade Man


 * If you are looking for the Mega Man 3 (PC) boss, please see Blade Man (PC).

Blade Man (ブレイドマン) is a Robot Master from Mega Man 10. He attacks by throwing three blades and moves fast between the walls and ceiling, sometimes going down to slash the player.

The quick talking and walking Blade Man was the guide to an ancient castle before the Roboenza incident. The castle's lord had a fascination with swords, which inspired the robot's design. He knows a great amount about weapons and swords and can speak on the subject for a very long time.

Strategy
Blade Man jumps around on the walls and ceiling while firing Triple Blade, occasionally diving off the walls at you.

On Easy Mode, Blade Man fires two blades instead of three.

On Hard Mode, Blade Man fires five blades instead of three, and as well, will dash at you after diving at you from the walls.

The best way to deal with him is with Commando Bomb, though only the shockwave will deal heavy damage.

Trivia

 * Blade Man shares his name with another from the original series, Blade Man from Mega Man 3 (PC).
 * Prior to its release, Nintendo held a contest for Mega Man 6 for two of the 8 robot masters to be put into the game (That being Knight Man and Wind Man.). Blade Man was one of the submitted robot masters, and shares a very strong resemblance to the one up to date in Mega Man 10.
 * Blade Man's weakness to the Commando Bomb is possibly due to Blade Man's thin build and sharp edges being snapped or broken by huge force (e.g. a bomb)
