i am never going to win another match again
Looks like pretty much half the combos are just one combo over and over in CP for Hakumen. Remember how we thought Hakumen was screwed? That was because half his combo routes were sealed off. We escaped complete disaster because he gains enough stars for us to blow 5 or 6 on a combo for good damage, but our minimum amount of stars needed for a good combo is higher now. Although if you can get them airborne then you can still do the loop without using a lot of stars to launch them.
Can he do Renka (1) > Kishuu and go into the loop? If so then at least 3 stars is enough for 3kish. I think I saw him do it but I can't remember.
