Melee Combo

Tiger Vanguard throws two punches, and then a slightly delayed low sweep. The bo👍ss will jump away after using the low sweep, making it difficult to punish.

Focus on dodging the entire combo. The low sweep is sli🌄ghtly delayed but has a short range. Don’t try to recklessly punish🐬 after dodging the combo.

This attack is easy to avoid by dodging in any direction.

Roar And Smash

Predicting the roar is difficult, but if you see the boss getting on all fours, be wary of this attack. It can be avoided by dodging at the correct time. The follow-up punch is very linear and slow, so you can easily avoid it by dodging or simply moving out of the way.

Sword Slash Combo

At close range, Tiger Vanguard may unleash a 4-hit combo with his sword. The first attack is a quick kick into two quick slashes, while the final slash is very delayed and can be challenging to avoid. The boss may also follow up with another 3-hit sword combo, where all three strikes areꦐ done i🔴n quick succession.

Whenever the boss has the sword in his hand, be ready for this offense. The final hit is difficult to avoid due to the delay. Be wary while attacking once you successfully dodge the final hit, because of the follow-up combo. All slashes can be avoided by dodging in any direction.

Stance Combo

The boss may assume a martial arts stance, and rush at you for a 4-hit combo. The initial strike is just a kick, followed by two punches. The boss will then jump into the air a🦄nd smash the ground with his ꧟fist to finish the combo.

This attack is easy to predict. As soon as you see Tiger Vanguard assume the stance, be ready for this. You can easily avoid the entire combo by dodging. The final hit is slow and can be easily𝄹 avoided even if your dodge timing is off.

Hit And Ground Smash

It is a 2-hit combo. The boss may throw a fist, and then smash the ground with his other fist🌸.

Both attacks are slow and easy to avoid by dodging. You can also avoid the second hit by sprinting away from the boss.

Tackle Into Smash

Tiger Vanguard may do a short tackle in your direction, and then jump into the air to throw a landing smash with his fist.

You’ll likely only get hit by this tackle if you’re too near the boss. The tackle itself doesn’t deal as much damage. You can avoid it by creating some distance from the boss or dodging backwards. The second hit is slow and is similar to all the jumping smashes the boss t꧃hrows at you.

Quick Slash

The boss assumes a stance with his sword and throws an exceptionally quick slash in the Destined One’s direction. It is a long-range attack and can reach you from quite far away instantly.

This attack is extremely difficult to avoid if you’re further away from the boss. You have to dodge exactly when the boss swings his sword, re🌞gardless of how far he is. Tiger Vanguard may also use this attack at close range.

Rock Solid

Tiger Vanguard gets on all fours and turns into stone.♏ If you attack him during this form, you’ll stagger a little. The bo✃ss may also follow it up with a single punch after getting out of this form.

Even if you hit the boss during this form, you can still avoid the follow-up. If you manage to stop yourself from attacking while the boss is in his stone form, you can unleash a charged heavy attack, and it will hit the boss, and may alsoཧ knock 🍷him out of the stone form.

Rock Solid (Teleportation)

Tiger Vanguard will turn into stone as usual, but this time, he’ll speak something and disappear for a short while. He will appear somewhere else in the arena, and launch a quick attack in your direction. It deals a ton of damage and the boss is guaranteed to use this move once after you’ve depleted half ꦦhis HP.

The trick to avoiding this move is to wait for the boss to appear again. Just as you see him reappear, press dodge and you’ll avoid this attack. Be wary that once you’ve avoided this attack, the boss will likely follow it up with a Quick Slash.

Blood Tornado

When he has the sword in his hand, Tiger Vanguard may summon a tornado of blood. The boss may also throw multiple tornadoes in yoꦯur directiဣon.

These tornadoes will follow you, so you have to dodge forward just when they are about to hit you. Once t♒hey pass you, they will disap💎pear.

Blood Slashes

The boss usually uses this attack right after throwing blood tornadoes in your direction. The attack consists of three slashes, that lℱaunch ranged projectiles♔ in your direction.

These attacks are very linear, you can easily avoid all of these attacks by dodging forward repeatedly.
