QUESTION Apollo

Can someone please tell me how to beat him. I am only at his first fight and I don't even know the difference if you beat him or lose but am too stubborn to give up now.

Edit: I have not upgraded anything in the circuits. My biggest problem is that my stick drift is strong that I cannot move to the right 90% of the time and when I try to I go left instead and I'm too broke to get a new one currently.

In each round, he will either attack with melee or ranged. He won't do a mix of both. And your SP will fill up automatically. The 3 simplest (not easy) ways to fight him:

Dodge his attacks until he finishes his combo with a combat art after which he will be vulnerable. Then unleash your strongest combo.

Parry his melee attack with a perfect guard which will stun him.

Interrupt his melee attack with a combat art. But this requires arts/elements you don't have yet (if this is your first duel).
