The Synchronized Block is a skill available in all of the three games that conform the Castlevania: Lords of Shadow subseries. It is performed by pressing the Block button at the moment of receiving an attack. If successful, this may stun the enemy for a moment, making them vulnerable to follow up attacks. Attacks which are not blockable (indicated with a visual cue), cannot be sync-blocked.
