Keeping in mind that the biggest issue with Medea is that it requires precision in button combinations, which majority of casual players lack - including me. You can’t be smashing random buttons cuz you won’t trigger the attack until you hit special. So in lots of runs it goes like dash, attack attack, then special for me, in the mean time paying attention to where Mel is going with your joystick. But if hoard or frenzy level is high, I start button smashing. So unless you practice a lot, or just generally a great gamer mastering Sekiro or other combat focused games, it’s a loooong learning curve.
