Tips and tricks
- Combo systems reward patience: keep the chain alive with safe moves rather than reaching for risky bonuses.
- Play in a quiet tab with nothing else running. Small frame drops cause missed timing that feels like bad luck but is not.
- Look one step ahead of your character. Reacting to what is under you is too late; reacting to what is coming is exactly on time.
- Restart early. If a run starts badly, do not grind it out; a fresh attempt costs nothing and saves your focus.
