Shortest mission in the entire game. Sam can pose a couple of issues with Pincer timings, and to be more precise, with Dodge Cancels, that can easily turn this fight into a slogfest.

• This fight has little to no downtime, so be quick on executing attacks
• After landing two CP2 hits, Sam can potentially try to cut some rocks for fun
• If, by any case, Sam will charge through these rocks around, the game can crash with a very high chance,
• so before manipping Sam for the 2nd/3rd time, make him go into a proper direction

The fight itself has two potential patterns:

• If Sam will do a short taunt (one hand), after landing a CP2 you have to immediately perform a Doubleslide
• If Sam will do a long taunt (two hands), after landing a CP2 you have to perform 2 Dodges that have to be blocked by Sam
• Finally, in case you’ve forgotten, all CP2’s have two hits inside → Sam has to be hit with the latter.

• Dodge + CP2
• (Taunt option) Doubleslide / 2x Dodge
• Dodge + CP2

If Sam is still on the ground, dodge into him, then proceed with the rest of the cycle.

• Doubleslide ⇒ P1 ⇒ CP2
• QTE

Jestream Sam NG+ Normal Side by Side examples

Start the same regardless of taunt:

• CP1 then CP2

• if his taunt breaks, follow up with a P3
• jump → cancel into CP2
• Let go of CP2 when Sam begins sliding towards you
• Dodge, then break his dash attack with a double slide
• Lightningstrikes (forward → forward → heavy) can lead Sam into starting the final QTE

• if he stops his taunt he either does 6 light attacks → dodge, double slide into Sam to interrupt
• if he stops his taunt and does one heavy attack → continue with a P3 and do the first slash, then jump.
• aftwards: set up a CP2 and hit him with the right timing, he will be below 10% health for the QTE initiation
