Fighting Game Bosses 178. Samurai Shodown III - Minazuki Zankuro boss battle

I hate this fight. Not only AI in this game reads your inputs (a classic early SNK staple) but the boss' hit boxes are enormous. The only real strategy that I found is to do a command throw at the start of a round, then try to catch him either by circle-stepping his attack or blocking his green fist-dash attack and then following up with 2C into special. Every other approach will probably earn you a heavy counter. #SamuraiShodownIII #Zankuro #SNK
