"Huh? Why upload a bunch of failure takes and make the winning one the 'backup'!? Seems pretty stupid frubam..."

Perhaps. Main thing was to have others understand where I truly wanted to go with this. Watching the rather straight-forward success run first would dwindle what to expect, or probably not be watched at all, lol. Plus I simply hate it )=01; its so lacking of variety or skill, and seems so cheap, it makes me sick. Knowing how it is, it kills any motivation to watch it.

In any case, it is easy to beat them if you're being efficient, but this aims to be on the 'stylish' side, if you can call it that. Though there are numerous things that can take me out in this battle, there are three major things that are the biggest hindrance;
(a)Elemental resistance: this prevents stagger if an enemy comes upon me while I'm attempting to stagger another, and use a move they're resistant against. Happens most with Jiao and Rending Quake, but also happens with Presa and Crescent Flash regularly, which leads them running straight through the arte to attack me.
(b)Jiao's hurtbox: his vertical range is pretty high. Most enemies are normal height(Wing/Pre/Agr), so my natural style tends to stay low vs sending the enemy high. Even when catching an enemy off-guard, Jiao tends to come from behind with Wolf Strike, hitting me despite how high I am. This is also a problem since Leia's hitbox expands when using certain attacks, giving him an easier area to hit.
(c)off-screen shenanigans: random Fireballs and Splashes basically. If Agria and I are on the same line, and I'm in the air, unprepared, its game over.

Well, that's the biggest contenders. They cover each other pretty well, having various ranges and abilities, so many losses are attributed to them simply outwitting me, losing 'control' of what I was doing, not paying attention, or wrongly anticipating what they were going to do.

Oh, and the HP is so low because I'm at a really high level(went through entire Illusionary Darkness), and my STR is herb-boosted to break their Iron Stance easily. Having 6000HP with Iron Stance would pose little problem in dispatching these guys, but would seem cheap, since I always thought the opposite was true(i.e. me with no IS and them with it).
