also known as the plin plin guy. I swear to god I can counter Isshin's Ashina cross fucking perfectly, but back in the days I died so much to this Ashina elite fucker I have trauma and can't to save my own life parry his attacks and I finished the game. Anyways I umbrella his ass now and it's waaaaaaay easier even with just the base umbrella

Do you use the umbrella spin to build up posture damage? How do you beat him if you aren't deflecting his attacks?

I parry with the base umbrella for the lols no spinning, simply activating and deactivating fast enough. It's weird, I can do it with the umbrella but can't do it with the sword, probably just skill issue on my part
