I have been learning a lot of mechanics for past weeks, and I can confirm that Nioh style is the hardest to master with intensive inputs. Ranging from violent gale cancel to one of the fastest "counterspark" vs enemy combo, I have been exploring many possible ways to take advantage of Nioh style by mixing it with other combat styles during combat and understanding how Nioh mechanics work. There are definitely more things to learn as I have been constantly discovering new limits of what Nioh style is capable of. I should be working on a Nioh style tech guide eventually whenever I finish exploring it.

For this segment, I have tried with 4 styles + Nioh (which brings in total 7 stances) to see how intensive it is to manage all combat styles at once while trying to be comfortable with extensive inputs and various methods of weapon/style switch. During my sparring sessions, it was personally overwhelming when trying to keep in mind with weapon slots and Nioh stance that we are in (Low/Mid/High). I tend to mix with different combat styles by accident so I have to proactively use my analog sticks to switch into the right combat styles while switching weapons. It was also hard to properly showcase this segment since the fight last 2 mins at most. having only 2 min didnt give me enough time to show every combat styles and possibilities even with my lowest weapon lvl so I divided into different fights segment with different setups.
1:55, 3:16, 4:30- three segments
Here I went with 2 combat styles and Nioh style (in both weapon slots) so that I can heavily focus on Nioh stances/mechanics and showcase them. It was also easier for me to remember and follow my combat styles properly without mixing up with different combat styles. It is still intense to manage Nioh style with stance switch and violent gale/flash attack cancel, giving a brand new playstyle, such as bringing the defense of counterspark into offence, that creates a different level of mastery in Nioh combat.
