Estel Aguirre returns as a boss in Stage 4, now more aggressive and with enhanced abilities. She retains her fast martial arts combos and pistol shots, but also gains a powerful grenade throw. Phase 1: Estel will use her familiar three-hit combo, uppercut, and pistol. Her pistol shots are now more frequent. The key is to stay close and pressure her, but be ready to dodge her uppercut. When she pulls out her pistol, quickly close the distance or use a jump attack. Phase 2 (around 60% health): She'll start throwing grenades, which have a small area of effect. These are telegraphed by her winding up. Move away from the grenade's landing zone. She also gains a new dash attack. Use throws and quick combos to chip away at her health. Star Moves are excellent for dealing burst damage and interrupting her more dangerous attacks. Maintain aggression while prioritizing evasion of her grenades and pistol shots.
