what physical blocker to use would be a good start.

any other advice greatly appreciated.

I couldn't find a guide on him.

Would you like to borrow my Ether? I found it very useful against him. Ancestral Unrest is also another helpful weapon. He's only annoying when he hits hard with so much Physical. Cobalts can he helpful in a pinch as well if you really need the added defense.

Thankyou thats very kind of you, but I managed to fiddle around with my weapons, so no need Plague claw helped me out. I have neither Ether or Ancestral Unrest. Battling is getting expensive lol. I will be visiting the borrowing boards in a few weeks to try and find something to beat some of the bigger cs challengers I have yet to tackle. I'm very much hoping the Throwback challengers give out good weapons in the future!
