Blaze Heatnix

Blaze Heatnix (ブレイズ・ヒートニックス) is a fire Maverick, not the same as Phoenix Magnion. Some of his fire attacks are deadly. It is said he would destroy any Reploid just for being slow, which is why he was retired in the first place. X can battle Heatnix well with Ground Dash, but with Zero's Sentsuizan, you must use caution to avoid falling in the magma.

Attacks

 * Blaze Heatnix will yell "Magma Flame!" and, depending on where he is on the screen, blue (non-fatal) magma will come. If he is on the top of the screen, it will come from the bottom. If he is on the bottom of the screen, it will come from the top. The magma will cover that half of the screen.


 * If the magma is high:
 * Blaze Heatnix will "dive" into the magma and "swim" around in it, then pop up randomly.
 * When he comes up, he may throw fireballs at you. Destroy these with any weapon you have.


 * If the magma is low:
 * Drips of lava will come down.
 * Blaze Heatnix will fly from one side of the screen to the other. Crouch if he flies high, jump and air dash if he flies low.
 * Blaze Heatnix will fire crescents either high or low. Crouch if they go high, jump and air dash if they go low.


 * Blaze Heatnix will fly off screen, then fly across the screen as a blazing invulnerable phoenix. He can (once again) come either high or low, and from either side of the screen.
