Things started out decently enough. I did have some concern due to the camera blocking my line of sight. I wasn't able to see GQ's spells and they were well timed to it's credit.
The combo set-up was more focused on steady tech-chasing and keeping in the air. Kohousen was my arte of choice for TC'ing after Shousou no Kata to close the gap and continue the combo. Shunjinken was intended for my aerial TC arte after Spiral Hawk so I could close it out with Gurenshuugeki.
The scythe proved to be more than a minor annoyance. Taking it down was simple enough, but GQ has a knack for timing spells or using those flames/dark hands at the right time.
Here is where the problems came up. Hitting left triggered the up arte and it threw me off many times. This is why it appears I'm throwing random artes around. I was trying to figure out why it was reading incorrectly.
Another Shunjinken into Gurenshuugeki would of connected regardless of his resistance. An error in the heat of battle.
Either way, I wasn't too disappointed with this take. Considering the conditions of recording I'm not as strict with the outcome. Even though more bosses will have minions I won't have to worry about resurrecting ones. Overall, it was a good fight. Thanks for watching.
