* timing started when "start" was confirmed (not when the first stage officially starts timing) * no Play Books were in use, because menu-ing sucks and I don't want to Kawanakajima - Uesugi Battle Formation Intrusion Even if he had low HP, there's still the issue of being swatted around while targeting Ieyasu (and Matabei in the Intrusion version).

But that would trigger Hondam fairly early. I think Komaki Nagakute was one of those stages. There were others that I think I should've just ran straight for the boss instead of taking out a few of the stage objectives along the way. He's also classed as a "Technical" character, which makes sense since his style revolves around throwing away his weapon. I'm finding that I have trouble dealing with 1v1 because of how he plays. I think the main takeaway was that I suck at using Matabei, considering that it took a little over 5 hours to get through the entire thing. It was to get an idea of how long it would take.

Made an attempt at a stage gauntlet last week in 4S, using Matabei and on Extreme (ahaha, not going at it on Heaven without more training).
