I would love his Dragon Time in this.

He had Dragon Time in TEN (The Eternal Night) where he can slow down time for a bit.

Personally, I think that Cynder's wind was my least favorite element.

It's hard to choose between Fear and Shadow for my favorites to Cynder.. Though Poison would be 3rd and Wind 4th. Like them all though.

so do I. 2 me Shadow is the best element Cynder has. But actually I thin the Fury Breath is the best. Shadow=2nd; Fury Breath=1st; Fear=3rd; Wind=4th; Poison=5th
