Otherwise, if your intercepting isn't on point, see below (Copying and pasting from my comment in another thread).
Non intercepting options.
1) Dex them, this often runs into the problem of getting backed against the wall, which often means you have to hit back to push them back, a full combo won't see you to the end of the shield phase, so unless you got yourself out of the corner or dex there, you're dead. If your intercept game isn't great I suspect your dexing in the corner game is probably similar.
2) Easier option, simply parry during the shield phase. You can probably do 3 parries and then start attacking even before the shield timer expires, so that your combo carries you into the cooldown and you're safe to do parry combo style.
3) Mix the above if you don't want to keep taking all that parry damage.
Either way, you want to maximize the time you are doing damage, so just remember you can always start attacking during the shield if your full combo or full combo plus chained special will take you into the cooldown.
Be careful of damage over time. If you have DoT on the defender during the active shield and they contact you, it will be reflected onto you.
I thought when it said “...makes any contact” that meant hitting into blocks also!
She gives you more leeway.
For the boss fight always push him to sp 1 and hit his block and he will throw sp 1 and do not be afraid of that global node. Its very easy . Just dont take any block hit . Key is to intercept which is very easy in case of king pin. Also I advice to take him down now cuz once his buff comes live he will be more hard to kill.
Just don't take any block hit . Dodge and intercept is all you can do and any damage dealer can do it just don't bring and bleed champ or you will die
I used domino for this fight.
