      Draven Ocklost that was a shield surf. The reason why it didnt land is because he unequipped it mid flip. The other times he went over the guardian was spinning and link did the backflip maneuver.

    right at the beginning he fires an ice arrow at the spot it will appear BEFORE it spawns, so it gets hit as soon as the battle begins.
    then he shoots an electric arrow at a metal plate on the floor, MAGNETIZING it so the enemy gets pulled onto it.
