How to Beat Lady Deathstrike

Deathstrike is Wolverine's dark reflection — adamantium claws, a healing factor, and strings that flow like a fighting-game duelist. Coverage consistently names her duel (with Sabretooth's) among the campaign's combat highlights: no gimmicks, two clawed mutants, one room.

Her claw flurries behave like the Hand's blue-glowing attacks: the parry is the intended answer, and the punish window after a successful string is where the fight's damage actually happens. Dodge-spam dies here — her tracking is built to punish it.

Arrive with several suits crafted (health track rising), Rage Tier 3 unlocked, and both specials familiar. If you have been skipping Nightmare Trials, a few bronze clears first is the smoothest difficulty tune-up available — the trials are literally parry practice.

• Parry the blue glow every time; the window is fair and the punish is huge.
• Never trade hits during her strings — your healing factor is good, hers does not care.
• Spend Helix Claws when she recovers at range; the blast catches her repositioning.
• Save Rage Tier 3 for the back half of the fight and commit fully when it lands.

Struck Dead lands (its position in the trophy list is out of order — it is the 11th story trophy). The Japan act winds down and the story turns to Madripoor.
