During combat, certain actions can create Openings. When this happens, heroes can {{button|Take an Opening}}

Whenever any Openings are available, there is always an option, "Openings?" which gives the following text:
:Openings are heroic opportunities created by certain events in combat or when fighting certain foes. For Example:
followed by a description of currently available openings.

==Openings from enemy fumbles==
*'''[[Whipping Winds]]''' make it harder for your opponent to hit you or dodge, possibly also tripping your enemy.
*'''[[Shaming Shot]]''' demonstrates your trick shooting for damage and demoralization.
*'''[[Feline Pounce]]''' a leaping attack that can bowl over your foes.
*'''[[Psychic Heckling]]''' is that sort of thing that will really undermine someone's self-worth... and resistance to psychic attacks.

==Openings from critical hits==
===Melee Weapons===
*'''[[Dragonslayer]]''' spears anything like a dragon... unless it's too much like a dragon. Then it's really just a normal attack.
*'''[[Fancy Bladework]]''' gives you a short-term but quite powerful buff to your blade skills.
*'''[[Hammer It Home]]''' stuns your opponent with repeated blows to the head or whatever passes for one. It's not elegant, but it does the job.
*'''[[Like Chopping Wood]]''' cuts your enemies does to size with down-home wisdom. The bigger they are, after all...
*'''[[Pull the Other One]]''' stuns your opponent and drags them from their feet... just like in that one movie with the whip. No, not ''that'' movie.
*'''[[Swing for the Fences]]''' is one way to make sure your enemy is going... going... gone. It's probably not what you want to do to a villain who you don't want to get away, but it is quite satisfying.

===Ranged Weapons===
*'''[[Dart Shark]]''' turns the fight into an impromptu game you're likely to win some credits from.
*'''[[Firebreather]]''' follows your attack with a firebreathing round.
*'''[[Follow Tracers]]''' is a normal ranged attack... except the part where it can't miss.
*'''[[For My Next Trick]]''' I'm going to describe this opening. It's a basic attack, but also reduces an opponent's dodge and defense, regardless of whether it hits.
*'''[[Set to Overload]]''' deals electric and fire damage at the expense of your weapon's structural integrity.
*'''[[Wicked Curve]]''' puts so much English on your attacks they might just hit your enemy more times.

===Spells===
*'''[[Always Strikes Twice]]''' hits your opponent with a bolt of lightning.
*'''[[Deepest Strikes]]''' instantly defeats weak foes and weakens others.
*'''[[Fan the Flames]]''' keeps your opponent on fire until they figure out how to stop, drop, and roll. Knowing Twilight's villains, it might be a while.
*'''[[Freeze!]]''' Stuns and weakens your opponent with a combination of numbing cold and terrible puns.
*'''[[Throw Away Foe]]''' sends your opponent clear out of the fight.

==Openings from enemy criticals==
*'''[[Stop, Drop, and...]]''' something you're supposed to do when you're on fire. It's right on the tip of your tongue. It'll come to you.
*'''[[Static Shock]]''' turns the power of electricity against your foes.
*'''[[Believe In Yourself]]''', man! It'll fix everything! Or at least how your enemy has become a towering embodiment of all your fears and insecurities.

==Openings from other sources==
* '''[[Break the Iceberg]]''' moves Iceberg Nine closer to destruction. It's a cold job, but somebody's got to do it.
