Less particle effects and more gameplay

[Vyrerus]

How is that cherry picked?

It's the attack from one angle instead of three. In order to not be cherry picked, you would need to show it from the same angles that you chose for Wicked Thunder. You would also need to acknowledge that the savage tell for M4's Sidewise Spark is not just a half room cleave, but the cubes and orbs are depicting other quadrant cleaves that only happen in savage.

You would need to compare it to the later mechanics in God Kefka in order to make an appropriate comparison. Perhaps Forsaken 3 where you have to watch which wing while watching the idol behind him or alternatively just having to know the difference between Wing of Destruction and Wings of Ruin. The wings light up with the same particle effect, but when it's both the attack is entirely different.
