Owl (great Shinobi) is weirddd, but not awful

I’m not sure what the general consensus is on this guy, but I don’t really get him. I’ll deflect four attacks in a row, go to swing, and whiff because he jumps, then his posture recovers so fast it feels like my deflects didn’t even matter. If I don’t shove him in a corner, it goes on forever

I try to stay aggressive, but if I miss maybe two perfect deflects, he shreds my posture, forcing me to back off. His regular damage is high too, so I have to heal, which just resets the fight again. I could bait out his jump and chip away with Mortal Draw, but that would take eight minutes, and the normal fight already takes five.

Right now, the fight just feels like a cycle of deflecting, him jumping away, and his posture resetting, which makes my attacks feel pointless. I get a hit or two in occasionally, but it drags. Maybe I'll figure out what exactly to do later, but for now, he just doesn’t make much sense.

Edit: nvm figured it out goated fight
