'''Warding Blow''' (Japanese: {{hover|明鏡の一撃|Meikyō no ichigeki}} ''Mirror Strike'') is a [[Skills|skill]] which debuted in {{FE14}}. In ''Fates'', it is a class skill associated with [[pegasus]]-mounted classes; in {{title|Heroes}}, it is a three-tiered type A passive skill (whose individiual tiers are known as '''Warding Blow 1''', '''Warding Blow 2''', and '''Warding Blow 3''' in order from lowest to highest). As a skill it decreases the damage the user takes from a [[Magic (stat)|magical attack]] whenever the user initiates the battle; in ''Heroes'', the size of the protection increases with the skill's tier.
