YOMI Hustle: "Sternum Exploder" achievement demonstration

This achievement isn't impossible, just really stupid.
For context, the "Sternum Exploder" achievement requires you to successfully land the ninja move "Palm Strike" three times in a single combo. There are, however, a few things that make this difficult;
1. Using palm strike requires the user to first use "backsway", which moves the user back, then forward, and can be interrupted by certain moves (though it does dodge and even counter quite a few other moves). This primarily means the target's position needs to be carefully predicted in order to land any backsway-requiring moves.
2. The user MUST be grounded in order to use backsway, and thus palm strike, making the use of air combos for this achievement unviable.
3. Palm strike has insanely high knockback, to the point where using it in a combo almost always ends the combo.
Thus, the challenge was addressing these three problems. The solution comes in the form of Ninja's level 3 super, caltrops, which are used to prevent the opponent from flying offscreen. Additionally, the opponent should DI in a way that causes them to hit one caltrop, and then places them near the user (within range of the next palm strike) as well as between the user and the caltrops.
A simple guide to this:
1. Have the ninja reach level 3 super (done here with a punch combo, but "Hustle" combos/spam can be used as well)
2. Place the caltrops.
3. Have the opponent place themselves between the ninja and the caltrops, and then have them use a highly punishable, laggy move. Cowboy is ideal for this, as "impale" both teleports them and has high frame lag if the opponent expects it.
4. Use any combo starter on the opponent. (Kick is used here)
5. Backsway, then palm strike the opponent. The opponent's DI should be angled down in such a way that they hit exactly one caltrop, and then they slide back in front of the ninja.
6. Repeat step 5 twice, for three total palm strikes.
7. Achievement get.
If you're having trouble with step 6, adjust the DI to give better frame data to the ninja.
Good luck, and thanks for watching!
