How in the heck do you beat hair coupons?

[Bio[redacted]]

I know this game's boss battles are korean levels of unfair, but this boss has me seriously stuck. All my attacks do minuscule levels of damage that barely scratch his HP bar even with stacking bleed, burn and rupture (and he counters everything I throw at him), tremor ishmael does no effect and can only be used as a meat shield for a single attack, the mobs are too tanky to get out of the way and stun my units, and even handing the controller to big brother strategy by using support EGO can't even beat his hair coupons move in a clash. How do I cancel him from using the hair coupon move?

Its easier than you think, just hit him with a bunch of Blunt damage and don't clash if you don't need to.

I recommend Reindeer Ishmael since the way Test of Big Brother is coded multiplies Mind Whip's stagger bar increase by x4.

[Reptiloid]

Apply blunt force trauma to him, as for some reason that jacked dude is weak to that.

Okay, to more directly respond to OP

You need Level +35 and Uptie 3 for this one.

Don't.
If your sinners are all at around 7 to 3 speed and Ricardo is at 2 speed, he'll attack last. Forget about clashing anything, just attack him and get to his stagger threshold.

You're supposed to stagger him before he could do the coupon nuke. Only a select few EGO can clash that thing, best to not even bother.

Ishmael LCB Sinner & Emil Sinclair N CORP. The One Who Shall Grip.
She redirects all Attack SKILLs that target him. He saves as many Attack SKILLs 2 & 3 as possible. He Clashes if she can't redirect all.

WAVE 3 / 3. If he uses DEFENSE SKILLs Make This Memorable / Swear Vengeance, use his Attack SKILLs 2 & 3. Her DEFENSE SKILLs Clash against those DEFENSE SKILLs to Offset them.

STAGGER him.

A smooth way of beating him:

Level 40, Uptie 3 for both: N Corp Sinclair (He Who Shall Grip) and Liu Association Ishmael

Preferrably give Nclair the first slot.

Do your best to protect Nclair. He can take hits, but hopefully you're able to clash everything so he never takes damage.

You want Liu Ishmael to lose her stagger thresholds. She is immortal for this fight, so long as other sinners are alive.

Do your best to save S3s for Ricardo. Nclair can clash potently with his S3. Ishmael should eat up (counter) any skills she can redirect. Ideally you'd be able to redirect everything to Ishmael while Nclair only has to deal with the counter.

The trick is that you don't clash, actually
Instead, you have to pummel him down to a stagger before he can use that skill in the first place. This is helped by the fact that he lowers his speed and takes double damage and double tremor burst damage for two turns when he uses his evade skill

Note that if you want to beat him down starting on the turn when he evades, have someone "clash" the evade with a defense skill. This will eat the evade so he won't be able to dodge your attacks

all my units are level 39s and they still manage to hit like trucks with payback skills

[Galactic hatkid]

hit 'em harder, that should do it
