What I did to beat this boi in the Pantheon is to keep fighting him until I beat him with 1 or less hits taken each phase. Here's how you can take advantage from him, in case anyone is having a hard time reading his moves.

When he does his basic slash, slash, spin, just walk away from him until he drops, then you can hit him twice (with Quick Slash). When he jumps up and drops to the floor, place yourself only a slight bit away from him and wait out the slash after the initial slash from him dropping. If you placed yourself right, you should be able to hit him three times (also with Quick Slash). You can avoid his dash slash by double jumping, then hit him once and run away, or hit him twice (if you time it really well) and dash away to avoid the first hit as he usually starts his basic slash combo after the dash art.

For the last phase, just try to calm yourself and be patient, wait for him to come flying directly at you and dash away, then hit him once after he stops spinning.

It takes a little bit of practice, but I'm sure you'll all be able to beat him soon! Don't lose hope.
