@@canontheory I think nashandra and soul of cinder are the easiest imo. Isshin took me hours on my first playthrough, and still several hours on my most recent playthrough. I'd rank them from easiest to hardest Nashandra Soul of cinder Gwyn Gerhman Radagon & elden beast Isshin

[@arandompersonontheinternet3600]

@@hookoffthejab1 it's interesting how people have different struggles for different bosses though because personally on my first run I beat Isshin on probably my 5th try (not exactly but still under 10) meanwhile the guardian ape was far more painful I think if you can get an understanding of Isshin's moveset, it's pretty fun to play with because it's very clean and he's not extremely unpredictable if you can keep being aggressive however when you do make a mistake, he punishes you HORRIFICALLY for it and that's what happened in my first 4 tries 😭 I loved the fight so much though honestly

[@Darraya55]

To be honest I expected they would add more for isshin.

[@michaeljohnston490]

They made the most changes to his first phase. He’s got a quite a few chase down moves that aren’t in the video, and sometimes he’ll even fake you out by sheathing his sword, only to start a normal combo instead of an Ashina Cross

[@user-ns4zm8qe9p]

Dude first phase is sick that mortal blade hits you like wuh?

[@manray5140]

Ongbal wisely chose to press his attack so as not to allow him to perform these devastating attacks.

[@bakedbagels3716]

I think it would’ve been cool if he could reflect lightning or imbue his blade with lightning. Make it so his attacks inflict a slow buildup of shock that once fully built up, you would have to be in the air and do a lightning reflection on his next attack

[@zed6740]

Tbh I think I'm more than satisfied with the new moves given. In his first phase he can do a 360 slash with the mortal blade which I think is followed by a shockwave considering the huge burst heard at the end. In his second phase he can do a three hit combo with the second and third combo being mid air with a mikiri attack to follow it up. I think I missed more but I think this new moveset more than enough suffices imo.

[@eightpoint8]

No double lighting reversal from Isshin huh? Regardless, amazing fights as always.

[@scuppo]

He did use the Black mortal blade tho

[@abrahamrangel2326]

the sakura dance is a heretic skill, thats why isshin doesnt use it unlike genichiro

@@abrahamrangel2326 no, the lightning is the heretic skill

[@abrahamrangel2326]

@@veloce5491 Lmao no, if you put attention he doesn' t create lighting, he jumps to catch a falling lighting to attack you, basically he is using the lighting reversal and that's not an heretical skill, the reason why he doesn't do the lighting reversal twice is because by the time you hit him he is on the ground, unlike inner genichiro who stays a few seconds in the air after creating the lighting ready to use the sakura dance

[@justinp.9046]

This video helped me understand how to deal with the new moves so much better. Like for example when Isshin does the sweep with his katana then the uppercut with the glaive; I always jumped the sweep and tried to deflect the uppercut midair which worked but I would get caught with the big thrust attack afterwards or the slice. Watching how Ongbal dealt with made that move much easier to evade.

[@notsosuperhero267]

Thats how I counter it. Except for that afterwards slice if its a thrust I mikiri it, if its the dragon slash then sidestep

[@sansalito2258]

You can also dodge into the dragonslash just like mikiri

[@vihaan5511]

You can actually mid-air-deflect the second attack from the new 3 attack combo he does in second and third phase, it looks really cool you should try it

[@richardromaine8639]

*Isshin uses Mortal Draw* Kuro: Oh yeah that's cool, I'm not lying over here or nothing, keep blasting away the only thing that can kill me I guess...

[@Darraya55]

Tbh I never understood why Genichiro stabbed kuro with the mortal blade, was he hoping to get the dragon heritage by taking Kuro's blood, literally.

[@Darraya55]

Besides, he's endangering Kuro's life, which if Kuro's died then dragon's heritage would be gone and he wouldn't obtain anything.

[@richardromaine8639]

@@Darraya55 My guess is that it was to perform the ritual to bring isshin back, dragon blood, plus mortal blood equals one free res. No strings attached. He probably was gonna use some random ashina warriors to bring back isshin and probably other strong figures and quite literally restore ashina's glory.

[@CarlTheSpud]

Seriously we need a dlc for this game . I am a huge fan of ancient japanese architecture and there are very few games which are based on a Japanese environment . We need more game like Sekiro.

[@JakeJupiter]

Yeah, it would be nice to get campaign/story related DLC, but I never thought we'd get anything more and then they released the update (DLC), which gives the game even more replay ability. The only thing that would've been cooler is if you could go through the campaign and fight the inner versions of the 3 big bosses instead.

[@Zebo12345678]

The inner bosses expanded on what those bosses had to begin with. Owl gets more shinibi moves and tools, (especially that mist raven effect) Genichiro gets more mobility and zone control, and Isshin gets more relentless attacks with difficult patterns. Isshin always would show you a hint (such as sheathing his sword) then wait for your response and try to counter it. His new spear combo with the midair stuff still kicks my ass, and it seems like he checks how you responded before he continues the combo. When you jump over the sweep towards him, he does a vertical slash instead of a thrust. I expected inner isshin to extend his responses, such as having some sort of counterplay after you use a mikiri counter, or to have some answers to the usual things you can do to avoid his moves. They gave him new offensive moves, but not much in the way of counterattacks or new defensive moves.

[@Zebo12345678]

P.S. imagine if he pulled out a second gun lol

[@MiguelKiesewalterPérez]

you can actually hard counter isshin's combo at 1:03 if you stand close to him, jump in the air, jump on his head while in the air, and the opening umbrella and doing the followup. this is fairly inconsistent but i think making sure that hes looking perfectly straight at you while the red kanji is appearing can make it more consistent. i think whether or not the umbrella followup hits or gets countered also depends on of he goes for the thrust at the end of the combo or the wind attack.
