Second boss ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ sucks

[Sir Gigachad of Thundercock]

And I don't mean it because it's hard, Sean is hard to beat, but that's not why he sucks, he sucks because the way to beat him is boring as ♥♥♥♥ and involves little to displays of skills, you need to cheese him, and that makes it boring.

[Kensei]

you just need to press right bumper and down when he swings his staff and strong attack to do heavy posture damage. And, in phase two, backstep when he tries to sweep your legs. where's the cheese.

[Znailla]

He prefers his 4-hit combos both of which go: (High-High-High-GuardbreakHigh)

And he sometimes mixes in either his elbow strike (High) or staff push (High) but never within his 4 hit combo

Best course of action is to either parry everything (player structure remains high -> high risk) or dodge the last hit (dodge downward) to punish and regain some structure

blocking the first hit makes it easier to deal with his 2nd phase low sweep and to get into the flow but makes it impossible to only parry

Sean demands a good grasp on rythm and timing while dealing with combos and is rather generous with punish windows which can be extended by a lot by an experienced player

If you are stuck cheesing him try a different approach and get creative with the post dodge punish


Tbh I am stuck cheesing Kiroki phase 1 and i know it's frustrating to be stuck in a very perticular playstyle for an encounter since it's hard to find a way out of that playstyle

sry in advance for any spelling/grammar mistakes english is not my first language

Ignore Znailla, his combos are not the same. He has a combo that starts low first.

bro, sean is literally the easiest boss in the game, wth are you talking abt? replay squats and club, try to get as high of a score as you can, upgrade structure impact, and youre golden. as for his combos, the timings are easy to learn, and in the first phase he literally has 3 attack patterns (lunge, 3 highs, shoulder, then 3 attacks) which are easy to parry/avoid. and 2nd phase only chains these together plus adds a swipe. and if you parry enough, he wont even go into burnt phase.
