Strategy for defeating Jinsuke Saze in Sekiro, focusing on precise deflections of his rapid sword attacks.

·Multi-source verified (120/120)

Jinsuke Saze is a swift samurai mini-boss found in the Ashina Castle Antechamber. He has a unique attack pattern: he will sheathe his sword and then unleash two incredibly fast slashes. The key to defeating him is to perfectly deflect both of these slashes. If you miss even one, you'll take heavy damage. Do not try to attack him otherwise; simply wait for his sheathe animation, then prepare to deflect twice. Reward: Prayer Bead.
