DW5XL - Diaochan 貂蝉 - Battle of Mai Castle (Chaos)

Legend Mode: Battle of Mai Castle This is probably one of the harder scenarios to clear as Diaochan. The main thing that I'm trying to improve with using Diaochan is her JC consistency when hitting enemy officers. I'm noticing that if you swerve mid-air with her JC towards the left or right, it seems to hit enemy officers more consistently and leads into her Musou better. When I try to just JC in the forward direction, enemy officers tend to block it more. The part where she struggles most is definitely shown against Xu Huang. In this recording, Xu Huang advanced a lot further up without his usual crowd. Because of this, filling with just JC alone becomes much tougher and I ended up in red health from this one encounter. Thankfully, Diaochan gets a big boost from red health and her JC can still be used to get the extra damage in before the Musou. The fights against Lu Meng, Gan Ning, and Cao Ren definitely looked scary, but I'm glad she managed to deal with it with red health abuse. I should really max out her weapon's power to 40 because Diaochan could use all the damage she can get. Other thing of note is that if she manages to get her C3 off and freezes with it, she can kill in a single Musou. This is shown against Jiang Qin. I'm really mad that this was the recording that got the clear. I had one attempt where I remained in almost full green health by the time I got to Lu Meng. Lu Meng had a sliver of health left, but I was facing against him and five archers. Lu Meng was on the ground and one archer staggered me. Then another, and then another one...and Lu Meng ended up Musouing me to death in the green. Needless to say, I really hate archers.
