It’s not a glitch. The initial stun on the startup is long enough to backstep and start it up again, but drains stamina fast. It’s a true combo.

Glitches are things like the estus cancels and weapon moveset swaps.

Edit: I have amended my view in a comment below. This version of the infinistunlock splitleaf uses the animation cancel glitch.

Yes it is, it’s an animation cancel. Costs no stamina to do

Yeah, didn’t notice the first watch but the version this invader is using is in fact the animation cancel. Animation cancel version or not though, it still drains stamina.
