!!Assassin's Creed: Revelations:




!!Assassin's Creed: Embers

* Shao Jun and Ezio get a few awesome moments when fighting the Emperor's agents in ''Embers'', but the crowner has to be when Jun [[spoiler: slits a bad guy's throat with a hidden blade in her shoe. Using a roundhouse kick.]]
* The Emperor's agents attack Ezio's villa at night. [[spoiler:Ezio gets more kills than Shao Jun, who is probably a third his age and in her prime. Not to mention he pulls off a hook-and-run, without the hookblade, a disarm counter, and nabs another kill by throwing his poker through a dude's ''eye''. Not to mention his flying, spinning stab that gets ''another'' guy in the eye. Along with that, he jumps out a window and kills the truck of a man while being tackled. And at the end, the old Mentore laughs it off, as if saying 'Still got it.']]
* [[spoiler:The unnamed Brute agent gets one]]: ''he got stabbed through the goddamned eye by Ezio, and is clearly obvious pain, but it didn't slow him down at all.''

* Altaïr escorting Niccolò and Maffeo Polo out of Masyaf. He can't even run past a light jog anymore, but he still definitely qualifies as a OldMaster because he makes up for his decreased physical ability with [[spoiler: control over the Apple of Eden greater than any we've seen before. He creates golden Assassins that fall on enemies from the heavens, his range is big enough to cover a significant portion of the village, and best of all, it's not CastFromHitpoints.]]
** For those who did not play ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedBrotherhood'', [[spoiler:Ezio can use the Apple during part of the endgame but it causes damage]].
* Ezio [[spoiler:beating the crap out of Prince Ahmet, while both of them are falling off a cliff above a cemetery. And it was in ''slow'' motion. And instead of letting Ahmet fall to his death,he saves him so Ahmet can get killed by the right person. And the whole scene leading up to that was just...awesome.]]
** To elaborate on the preceding scene: [[spoiler: Ezio is paragliding behind the cart Sofia is driving, and is swooping down to assassinate horse riding enemies, either by hidden blade or ''by throwing them at the other riders''.]]

** That's not all. The above happens right after Ezio leapt off a vantage point to perform an air assassination on Shakhulu. Then, as Ezio walks over to his body to confirm that he's dead, Shakhulu starts ''choking'' Ezio, giving an EvilLaugh. He pulled a NoSell on an attack that ''killed every single person it has been used on in one hit.''
** And when Ezio stabs him a second time, he slowly chokes after a few seconds, making it seem like he's finally dying... ''but he gets up anyway'', and Ezio has to personally fight to kill him.

* At the end of the very first sequence, after Ezio climbs to the top of Masyaf's castle, he performs what is probably the most badass and daring Leap of Faith in the series. He takes a short moment to look at the ground, pushes a statue from the top of the castle, and immediately jumps off right after pushing the statue, which creates a hole through the ground and exposes the pool of water beneath.

* We're all in agreement that Ezio is badass. And we all know that the Master Assassin armor makes him look even more badass. But the pre-order bonus armor, [[AndYourRewardIsClothes The armor of Ishak Pasha]] is so incredibly badass that it seemed like an AmplifierArtifact for ezio's Badassedness, until it is obvious that he has become so awesome that his enemies cannot not even look at him [[WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda without going blind from overexposure to]] PureAwesomeness.

** What makes this scene better is that before he's about to be hanged, he's led through a room with about twenty or so people in it, armed to the teeth. His wrists are bound together, completely unarmed and is being dragged to his death. After a few moments, he simply gets up and begins to walk on his own, and everyone in the room ''freaks the hell out''.



* By this point in Ezio's life, he's essentially on Altair's level of skill. This can be seen in the trailer, where Ezio is completely unarmed, bound at the wrists, is surrounded by people and is getting around sixty or fifty years old. The second he shakes free of the guards, they basically freak the hell out and draw their weapons out of pure fright.
