GOT HIM!!

Took until try #12 or 13 I think, but Genichiro Ashina/Way of Tomoe is down. I kept fucking up the timing for the mikiri counters on his thrusts in the first two phases, maybe I was stunned so I couldnt do it? No idea. I ended up step dodging when he jumped in the air before slamming down (which normally baits the thrust) and just hitting him. Maybe if I deflect it, I can mikiri counter, but if I only block, I get hit regardless?

Anyway, try #4 I killed his second health bar, and was pumped.............for about 20ish seconds. Then this lightning bastard leaps at me. I mikiri countered his initial diving thrust purely on instinct, but his lightning killed me soon after, and I got pissed because I knew Id have to take off the two health bars again.

On my winning try, I mainly baited his long range thrust, and his lightning move. Mikiri countered the thrusts, and learned how to time the jump and shoot lightning back at him to stun him for some hits. Does crazy damage, so I can stack the posture damage too.

As angry as I was at the thrust crap in the first two phases, that was definitely my favourite fight so far! Great tone to it, one on one in a fairly big area (though got killed because of camera cornering twice), in a relatively honourable duel.

He STILL revives after and Im wondering how many times I have to fight this fuck, but he jumps off the ledge into lightning flashes. And Im off to see Kuro.
