It's time for their strongest attacks!

I'll refer to them by their card suit name to make it easier on myself, but here's the breakdown for anyone who hasn't seen my card suit au Ace designs.

Top left - Clover/Club

Top right - Heart

Bottom left -Diamond (Exquisite Control au Ace)

Bottom right - Spade

Center - Ann (just female Ace redesign, tbh)

Might add a break here when I'm not on mobile, lol

Brief mentions of suicidal tendencies.

Clover

There's no name for this attack because Clover has repressed his devil fruit due to trauma in his childhood and guilt!

But if it did? It would be called Greek Fire, because it will never go out unless Clover makes it or is killed/knocked out.

It's just an uncontrollable explosion of fire that spreads much like when Gray Town Terminal burned.

He'll end up trapped in his own memories until he faces his trauma head on and conquers it.

The further his mental spiral goes the more devastating the fire becomes.

Best solution is to either get away fast or break through his mental block (Aka, GET LUFFY). Garp will knock him out but the trauma will remain cause that man kinda sucks with emotional support and Clover looks up to him. He'll probably be worse off because he'll view it as failing his grandfather.

Obviously, Whitebeard and Co will also have an easier time getting through but he won't tell anyone wtf his trauma is willingly. So not exactly a plan I'd count on in a pinch unless you're willing to shelf the trauma unpacking for the next time he implodes from stress.

Diamond

Hellfire. Though calling it an attack is misleading.

It's really just him letting go of his inhibitions and using his fire with pinpoint accuracy and control.

A real 'scorched Earth' kind of move.

Capable of spontaneously combusting anything remotely flammable and boiling the nearby ocean through proximity.

He has a spooky level of control for his fire and it is hella scary. Think the prom scene in Carrie.

In theory you could knock him out, but he'll definitely see you coming cause he's completely calm like this.

Very confidently in control almost to the point of arrogance. But his temper is gone at this point, so definitely don't insult him or do anything stupid.

He gets really cruel like this.

Heart

Firecracker.

He's literally punching you with a contained firework. Usually preceded by smaller cracks of fire to blind his opponent.

If you can see past that, well, you still have to deal with his normal punch strength amplified by the force of an explosion.

Best advice is to dodge like hell, cause this won't be pretty if it hits you.

And watch out for rogue sparks. He can let smaller pops go off without direct contact.

Overall pretty brutal to all the senses.

Spade

Icarus' Fall. Usually preceded by a variation of Phoenix Rise to shoot him high into the air.

The most dangerous part is how it looks like it fails. By design. A very calculated risk and very indicative of his low-key suicidal drive.

Essentially, he launches himself high into the air to the point that the atmosphere thins out. Then, he passes out. His fire goes out. And he falls.

Have you ever seen a contained fire that suddenly got more oxygen? Like a candle you snuff out by placing the lid over it and lifting it too soon? How it bursts back to life? Yeah. This is that in action and with style.

When the oxygen and sensation of falling wakes him back up, his fire explodes out again and drives him down like a rocket.

How he ended his fight with Jinbe so quickly.

Everyone hates this move and everything it stands for because one wrong move and he's dead.

Not something Spade does lightly, though, so there's that.

Ann

Comet Strike! It's a lot like Firecracker, but just a straight ball of plasma fire.

The most dangerous part is how she controls it's trajectory and often fakes out her opponents by launching it and making it curve around them to hit her real target.

Of course, getting hit is no picnic either, cause it has a lot of punch to it. Often exploding on impact, the heat alone scorching.

She also can hit it like she's playing baseball with a massive bat. You know. Like Dadan's club. For extra distance hits of course, usually starting off with bigger balls of fire so they don't end up uselessly sailing through the air.

She can also make them break into smaller balls on impact for more spread damage but it gets a little wacky and out of control. Maybe a move she perfects later.

And that's it! That's my beans! Hope you guys enjoyed this silly thought I had.

That Work It Out event is still going, by the way, one last slot left!
