Final Boss battle.
Non-Skillseal version(Leia only): youtu.be/wJ0Fw52coSk
Bisley....in some ways, he was harder than Chronos. He moves very fast, and his normals are practically instant. However, he has a lot of artes that leave him vulnerable and his 'Style Shift' is very easily punishable. His Demon Burst(i.e. quick punch + Fireball) and Curtain Call are his most dangerous attacks, esp Demon Burst. His DB punch can be interrupted, but the fireball will always come out, even if he is staggered. Curtain Call is dangerous because you need a timed sidestep to dodge it 100%(you can mash, but you might get hit), and it can be used instantly from his knockdown position. Yes, that means in one frame his body is completely on the ground, and the very next frame he is completely upright in motion to circle around you for the hit. He also has a skill that allows him to occasionally resist being lifted into the air. I believe its the skill called Damage Control(avoid knockdown 30% of the time), but I'm not entirely sure on that. It's not too threatening, but an unexpected no-lift can lead to a counter that I am not prepared for. However, afflicting skillseal prevents him from resisting uplift. Since Bisley is more susceptible to status inflictions(or at least more susceptible at my level[160]), 2 hits from Eagle's Rage guarantees being affected.
Outside of that, nothing fancy, just aggressive play, not too much different than I'd do a normal foe. Since I felt it a bit lackluster for a final boss and the 2nd Bisley is just more of the same, I decided to tack on that bit in the latter half. Not nearly as polished as some of the best out there, even considering no PC, but it was VERY hard for me to do this regardless =0(. I gained a LOT more respect to those who can dual combo.
So with this, the run is finished. Looking back, I've enjoyed some battles while others just felt like a chore =0\. You can see the lack of motivation as I progressed through the run, in that my creativity waned, however, I tried to hide that lack of motivation by approaching the battle in different ways. I'm still glad I didn't use PC2/3 so I could expand my style, but most still ended up as glorified combo videos that relied on a Power Combo anyway, so I still wonder whether it made much of a difference, or am I just telling myself that =02? Anyway, I hope you've enjoyed the show and I appreciate everyone who watched and left a comment =03.'Til next time......

just another random jude fight. Got inspired to try my hand at it since I saw yuuki coffees fight against Victor with Jude.

Unfortunately, he is in no way fit to fight solo against Victor w/o PC2/3 stat-wise, since this file was for Leia and his Iron Stance was near-impossible to break =0. So, in order to actually enjoy this fight, I SAVE-EDITED JUDES STATS SO I CAN BREAK HIS GUARD EASILY and not die in one hit. I also turned the grade shop 2x dmg off, so my increased STR did not augment the damage given(and its still quite a bit longer than other battles Ive done), and gave him every skill in the game, but turned off some of the overpowered ones(heal guard, auto medicine, aerial glory/glory, time stop, etc). Nothing to prove here, but I at least want him to be able to reasonably stagger/kill me.
As I said before, Im not very proficient with Jude outside of premade combo C and that combo is about the only decent thing to come out of this video. Other than that, I have to say I still had quite a bit of fun doing this =03. Felt good to just be able to fight [relatively] head-to-head, w/o having to worry about Iron Stance.
As for Victor, he is certainly a tough one. Its hard to discern when to backstep his attacks. His sword form is probably his most dangerous. Fortunately, its the only one that can counter with an arte in mid-air, so I could only hope hed change forms so he can be aerial juggled.
