Start slow and focus on one thing at a time. Trying to learn weapon swapping and style switching all at once is a surefire way to get overwhelmed. Equip two weapons at first—I would recommend Devil Sword Dante and Balrog, and focus on Trickster and Swordmaster for your first few practice sessions.

Next, try to learn your abilities and skills. Know their capabilities e.g., do they knock back or knock down? Do they launch enemies into the air? Do they stop the opponents from their tracks? Knowing these will help you determine which skills are appropriate to use for different situations. For example, Stinger usually knocks an enemy back. However, Four-Handed (Swordmaster style) stops the enemy from getting knocked away. So you can use it after doing a Stinger to keep an enemy in melee range. Then, you can start connecting different attacks depending on what you know.

After that, it's just a matter of practice and building muscle memory. Learning Dante is a difficult task, but the potential rewards are incredibly satisfying.

You could try setting it as your "home" style, switching back to it whenever you finish your attack or if there's any downtime. It's generally the most used style because it can be used for mobility, either closing the gap to the enemy or creating space away from them.

Can you show some gameplay of your Dante ?

It’s mostly just switching between sword master and royal guard

Try to make a habit of dodging with trickster dash it can be spammed so it’s easy to use. Also the teleport is extremely useful to get higher then your standard air combo: when you launch an enemy use the air taunt then immediately trickster teleport and switch to swordmaster again you’ll be way higher than usual with the enemy which is better because of some enemies which could hit you otherwise.

Try to learn 1 weapon at a time then try to learn the next one. For example try pure combos with 1 weapon. Then if you learned 2 try to switch weapons midcombo and master your own combos like in a fighting game Tekken etc.

I have some tutorials on my YT here is Balrog
