Help/Advice against high 300/mid 400 ranked bots

This is mainly to ask for strategies against higher ranked bots who usually just continually backstep when you try to attack and they will counter immediately after you try to close the gap to engage. So how would I go about counteracting this kind of strategy that the AI takes up? It primarily happens to me in arena, but occasionally does happen in story.

Countering is also usually more effective to cause damage - wait for a bot to charge you, then sidestep and counter rather than dashing in on him.
But I will try changing up my combos and what I do and see if that changes anything. Thank you.
Some bots need to use lots of heavy attacks. Bots like BC, Bee... to a lesser extent Rhinox who gets that sweet power block... I usually try to mix up the number of hits I put in a combo before I use a heavy. I'm not 100% sure this helps, but it seems like if you use a lot of heavy attacks in a consistent patter, the AI learns to dodge it very quickly.
Watch some gameplay vids on youtube. iNightSkies has quite a few that are really good. And keep trying different things. I'll tell you, it's possible to regularly beat bots more than twice your level without taking any damage (not easy, but possible). So keep trying stuff and watching what other ppl do until you're better
