Calling all Isshin pros.

If I could steal a couple minutes of your time... Looking for pointers* just finished up my NG+1 run and I was trying to get more aggressive with Isshin in phase 1. While I most certainly shaved a lot of time off trying a new approach, I definitely feel like it's sloppy and not exactly what I'm going for. My old approach was always keep a lot of distance, bait out a move, punish once then throw in high monk and repeat. That works but it takes me forever and I'd rather learn how to get up in his face. Playstation app only let's me share 3min clips. It took me 3min 55sec for phase 1. Here's a clip of the first 3 mins, since the last 55 seconds isn't really anything different than I do here. I noticed I'm having a hard time breaking the habit of wanting to bait him out but also I'm horrible about his perilous attacks. Sorry if the video is painful to watch 😆 I'm trying lol
