Sync StrikeL H SFor boss damage windows.
SweepH L LCrowds of more than 2 enemies.

How to drill them

  • Free Play, pick a 100–120 BPM song, no enemies.
  • 10 reps of each combo. Aim for 90% Perfect.
  • Add 1 melee dummy. 5 reps using each combo as a finisher.

What to ignore for now

  • Off-beat tricks — only useful from Prophet onward.
  • Parry-cancel chains — Dex and later.
  • Holding Heavy — advanced spin finisher, skip.

When these feel automatic: advanced combo listfirst boss (Arora).
