Spade Magnes, known as Spade Magnets (スペード・マグネッツ, Spēdo Magunettsu) in Japan, is the first boss from Mega Man Star Force 3. He is the Noise Card-corrupted form of the Wizard Magnes.

History

Spade Magnes was originally a Wizard named Magnes, who helped watch over a rocket that he was supposed to pilot into space with his brother, Coil. He has a cheerful, can-do attitude and loves his job. Queen Tia and Jack corrupt him with a Noise Card, making him go out of control, turning him into Spade Magnes, and causing the experimental rocket to malfunction. Though, Mega Man defeats him and turns Magnes back to normal. After that Magnes gets a little emotional and apologizes for the trouble he caused, he just did not want to be worthless, but Mega Man tells him that he is not and he is the best Wizard he ever met.

Abilities

Spade Magnes is the first boss in the game, and possesses these few attacks:

• Gravity Rocket (グラビティロケット) - He fires two missiles down two rows. The missiles can be destroyed.
  • On occasion, one of the missiles will be black, and will induce Gravity on contact. If it misses, it leaves an orb that will induce Gravity on the last panel it passed through.
• Rocket Launch (アクシスジェット "Axis Jet") - Spade Magnes transforms into a rocket form and charges down the row. If he misses, he will attempt a second hit from underneath. This hit will break the panel if it misses. Often used with the missile attack.
• Magnet Sword (マグネットソード) - Magnes disappears, and a 3x3 field of gravity appears in front of the player that will induces Gravity status. Spade Magnes then moves up in front of the player and performs two 2-row-wide slashes, left and right, using his dual swords. This means the panel in front of Spade Magnes will receive 2x damage. The player must block this attack if they do not dodge the gravity field.
