Strategy

Ninja Gaiden 3

• Aim your jump at them with Wind Run (Quick Attack + Jump), then launch them on landing with a 360° Strong Attack into a quick Izuna Drop (Quick, Quick, Quick, Strong Attack) and finish them off with an Obliteration Technique (Close to a Near-Death Enemy — Strong Attack) to gain a substantial amount of Ki.

Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge

• Either wait for their Powerful Attack or bait it via the Meditation Ninja Skill and slide to counter with Steel on Bone (Strong Attack) and chain it on nearby enemies with Strong Attack.
