An outclassed but by no means terrible Skylander
This review is going to be long, but I want to make Cynder's shortcomings and strengths clear so wary buyers know exactly what they are getting. I have used Cynder in my game for a while now. Even though I haven't obtained all of her upgrades as of writing, I have determined she is not as terrible as other reviewers have written. However, I will stress this: If you plan to buy and use Cynder, YOU NEED TO STRATEGIZE WHEN USING HER IN-GAME. Cynder is not as strong as most of her other Undead brethren both offensively and defensively. In addition, she has only two offensive options. However, there are a couple very simple but effective strategies you can use with just these two moves. Firstly, Cynder’s lighting is a weak but fast-moving attack that also briefly paralyzes most in-game enemies on contact. This means you can quickly spam the attack repeatedly. Also, because it paralyzes, often enemies will barely get close to you before running out of health (provided you are a good distance away from them). Second, her other attack has her slip in the shadows and move in a straight line, generating ghosts that deal damage to all enemies that step in their way. Cynder can effectively run right underneath enemies for an escape and trap them in the middle of her ghost trail. You can often get Cynder to reappear right behind her foes, which seems to disorient them for just a moment. This brief window of time allows you continue attacking with lighting while also stockpiling damage with the ghosts. Cynder does not dish out an immediate punch to the face like other Skylanders, but she is still very much capable of fighting on her own. You just have to plan out a strategy more complicated than "mash the A button over and over".

This is far worse than the Dragon's Peak adventure, and all she can do is shoot lighting "Oh." Don't get Cynder it's a waste of money!

Stupid
Let me just say that all the "reviews" for this skylander are from people who don't own it. I have it, and it sucks. It takes very weak damage and can easily get creamed in story mode. I have mine fully upgraded and I barely use it. Most of the reason why I got it is because I'm trying to get all the dragons(spyro drobot zap cynder sunburn bash whirlwind and camo). It's okay in multiplayer. Unless your fighting those monstrous overpowered skylanders(Drobot, Stealth Elf, and Ignitor) your probably gonna win. Only if you chose the ghost path though because they leech on your opponent. This was by far the worst skylander purchase I made. If you want an undead skylander, go for chop chop. Oh, and the figure looks NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING like how cynder looks in the game. Since so much people want it though, it makes an easy scam for a good trade.
