--𝙳𝚎𝚜𝚌𝚛𝚒𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗--

Meliodas' signature ability, Full Counter lets him reflect an attack sent at him back at their user with added power. This can only be used on 𝘮𝘢𝘨𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬𝘴.

<-Revenge Counter>

--𝙳𝚎𝚜𝚌𝚛𝚒𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗--

Meliodas' strongest technique, Revenge Counter turns off Meliodas' abilities so he can soak up damage before he pours all the power from the attacks into his sword and unleashes an extremely powerful attack onto his opponent.

«Counter Vanish»

--𝙳𝚎𝚜𝚌𝚛𝚒𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗--

With his palm facing an incoming attack, Meliodas folds his thumb and little finger. He then, rather than reflecting "magic" attacks, completely disperses the attacks used against him.

«Kami Chigiri»

--𝙳𝚎𝚜𝚌𝚛𝚒𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗--

Meliodas cuts his opponent with his sword a total of a thousand times in an instant.

«Trillion Dark»

--𝙳𝚎𝚜𝚌𝚛𝚒𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗--

Meliodas launches a barrage of small spheres of high concentrated darkness at the opponent.

«Seven Deadly Sins; Combination»

--𝙳𝚎𝚜𝚌𝚛𝚒𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗--

A combination technique. Meliodas creates six clones with Lostvayne Sword to reflect the attacks of each of the other six Sins directed against the target: Ban's Banishing Kill; King's Sunflower; Diane's Rush Rock; Gowther's Blackout Arrow ; Merlin's Exterminate Ray; and Escanor's Cruel Sun. After the initial reflection, Meliodas reflects them once again, merging all attacks into a single powerful one in the process.

«Immortality»

--𝙳𝚎𝚜𝚌𝚛𝚒𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗--

The Supreme Deity cursed Meliodas with Immortality as his punishment, reviving him every time he died in exchange for his emotions being consumed more and more until return to be the bloodthirsty demon he once was.

×-----------------------×

★𝐖𝐞𝐚𝐤𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬★

Full Counter can't be used against ordinary punches and kicks, or indirect attacks, which means he is not able to reflect any 𝘱𝘩𝘺𝘴𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘬𝘴.

★𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻★

«•𝐃𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐦»

𝙳𝚎𝚜𝚌𝚛𝚒𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗:

When Meliodas gets angry enough, he can tap into his demonic powers, forming a black mark on his forehead and giving him a boost to his strength, speed, and durability. As he gets angrier, the black mark spreads until it covers more and more of his body, his power increasing as the mark spreads. When the mark spreads, Meliodas can manipulate the markings to form weapons, wings for flight, use it as armour, reattach lost limbs, and even fire it as a ranged blast of dark matter that can obliterate a whole kingdom at full power. However, the more the mark spreads, the more Meliodas starts acting on instinct instead of rational thought.

«•𝐀𝐬𝐬𝐚𝐮𝐥𝐭 𝐌𝐨𝐝𝐞»

𝙳𝚎𝚜𝚌𝚛𝚒𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗:

By unleashing the full extent of his demonic powers, Meliodas can access the power he possessed in his prime as the Demon King's top successor. In this state, Meliodas possesses the power that even the other members of the Ten Commandments fear. This comes at the cost of robbing Meliodas of his emotions, temporarily making him the heartless and cruel person he was before he betrayed the Demon Clan.
