I recommend dropping a savestate at the start of the battle to practice. I suggest starting out by just dodging his fireballs for a little while. After some time, you will sense their rhythm, and even learn how to manipulate their trajectory. Once you have that down, you need to relearn it again by incorporating attacking. I find that the best place to fight him from is the space between the wider gap between the pillars (see pic related.) It's easier to hit him while he's moving toward you, but it puts you at the most risk of jumping into him. Take your time to learn the timing.

Also, if you don't already know, you can get multiple slashes in a single jump by tapping down while slashing. This is a hold-over from the spinslash cancel. It's very helpful for getting multiple hits in a short amount of time.

>It's easy, you just need to die
You're robbing yourself of a challenge and using the spinslash as a crutch.
