| – Cypher after trapping Justice. | ||
Cypher is a main character in Shadow Fight 2. He is a wise, genius old man who is trapped in the Shadow World for a long time. He becomes the replacement for Sensei's role in Act VII, describing the rules of challenges (Except for the Stone Grove Challenge, which is explained by Ancient and Spaceship Challenge, which is explained by Kali) and duels to the players, and reminds them each time they level up.
Cypher possesses a vast knowledge about the Shadow World. He often informs Shadow and Kali about crucial information that can help them in beating Titan.
Mini-boss Battle[]
After 15 stages of the Hideout tournament are completed, Cypher will challenge Shadow to a friendly sparring to test his prowess. He wields the Telescopic Staff as his weapon and uses the Landmines as ranged weapon. Two rounds must be won in order to score a victory. There is a total of three rounds that can be fought. The timer for each battle is 99 seconds, as per usual conditions.

Trivia[]
- Cypher's landmines are different than the one in the shop; it blinks with red light instead of green light.
- He is also an inventor, having invented Cronos.
- Cypher has several very strange occurrences and bugs:
- If you throw him at the same time he plants a Landmine, he will ignore your throw and continue the planting animation.
- Similarly, he can also block your attack while planting a Landmine.
- Cypher can also perform a "parry". In the first few frames of his attack animation, he's able to be block an attack while being uninterrupted and proceeds with the attack he is making.
- However, these bugs are not unique to Cypher. If Kid equips Landmines, he can also perform the same bugs in the dojo. The player can also perform these bugs themself, however it is very hard to replicate due to the extremely small window of time. It is safe to say that these bugs are caused by Landmines.
- If you throw him at the same time he plants a Landmine, he will ignore your throw and continue the planting animation.
