GoS Launch Attack

A Launch Attack, also called a Rising Shot, Launch Attack, or a Rising Strike, is an upward jumping attack that launches smaller enemies into the air. While airborne, they will be unable to perform any actions, leaving them open to combo attacks. Certain enemies, such as bosses, cannot be launched.
