The first boss looked intimidating from the moment the battle started. It was faster, stronger, and much harder to predict than the stickman games enemies I had faced before. Every attack had to be timed carefully because getting hit could take away a huge amount of health.

At first, I tried attacking as quickly as possible. New attacks appeared, the arena became more dangerous, and there was barely any time to react. One mistake could completely destroy my progress.

That was a mistake.

The boss immediately countered and sent my stickman flying across the arena. I realized that rushing into the fight was not going to work. I needed to watch the attack patterns, wait for an opening, and strike at exactly the right moment.
