At the Power Level of an Official Knight, Reinhardt was the first opponent he had ever met whose Extraordinary Armament could withstand his Special Ability, the Shattering Impact of his Destruction Force Field.
Just as Reinhardt was wary of his Instant Movement ability, Stein was also wary of Reinhardt's unparalleled speed.

A Knight's thoughts moved dozens of times faster than a Mortal's. Their combat analysis was instantaneous. As Reinhardt attempted to regain control of his Aikacia Nozzle and use the seven-second window to cut Stein down with lightning speed...
...Stein, who had charged to within five meters of Reinhardt on foot, suddenly erupted with power!
He activated another Special Ability: Explosive Propulsion.
