Samurai in 25 secs

Actually there is a fast strat on the samurai which is very risky. But it is just awesome. :)

The strat

at the beginning of the fight 4-jump shuffle to charge your boost, strike him with your hits (i call it the shotgun) then he shouldhit the platform before spinning -> charge shot 4 -> jump shuffle ->shotgun, then you should be overdrive lvl 2.

When he spins & bounce : try to connect all hits of the shotgun each bounce+ a few hits, try to switch at the last moment to win a few hit. before he destroy the platform with the last bounce charge shot him, & 4 jump shuffle.
You should be OD lvl 3 normally

The rise: 2 seconds where everything is played. He hits the platform from under you: you MUST do shotgun + charge shot at the frame he hits the platform and you get near OD lvl 4.
Then 4 jump shuffle, and KEEP IT he will come from the right : shotgun.

The true shotgun :
Go on the platfomrm underneath him and shotgun his legs as fast as you can, when he is almost close to you charge shot and he will go back then restart the shotgun, you should kill him.

The approximate time is 24 seconds, so its pretty intense, i m actually on the 20th rank of time attack : SAMURAI, so if you have any questions ask me and i ll be pleased to answer you
.

This game is just awesome, make it live and expand !!!

NICE ! good job on your video :) actually i made that guide when i found out the strat because none was up. However i did not try to improve it and it seems new tricks have been found i should put the guide up to date thx ,)

Also, meant to put this in the last comment, but here's a video of the approximate strategy. I do a bit of extra stuff that barely shaves a second or two off, but once you get this method down, this is really one of the only things you can do to make it any faster.

also, as a note, I'd be happy to remove this if and when you make your own video example.

Good guide! Short and to the point. I've got a few suggestions, but it's nothing major...

I actually prefer a full 5 jump shuffle at the beginning, it sets up some really tight timing for shotguns and charge shots in the 4th or 5th hit later on.

Also, just to clarify a point for "The true shotgun", this is the part that my friends and I call "spin to win", because the fastest way to shotgun isn't to let go of the fire button and press it again, it's to spin in place, which you can do here by pressing down, or by pressing right... I think...
