I've seen Everglows videos and already know he is a pro at KH so is there anymore tips I should know of to become pro and make it through critical more easier?

Tip #1: Don't ask for tips

 

In all seriousness, just don't button mash like a lunatic. With Critical Mode, you need to be strategic.

 

Peace!

try to beat the game in the most difficult way available. Criical Level 1 when possible. This will force you to master the game or die pretty much instantly.

Find the most efficient keyblades and abilities. Learn the cues for enemy attacks.

If you want to get really advanced you're going to have to start learning about the frames of animation and how to exploit the games code to beat bosses in seconds

Don't go on the offensive all the time , learn to rely and time on blocking instead of reflect (exception for unavoidable attacks).

Reflect! Reflect! Reflect! Reflect FTW !Maybe just try to Dogde the enemy attacks and study their moveset, then you know when to do what^^

If I was a pro, I'd tell you. Unfortunately I am not, so the most I have to say is observations of the actual pros out there, who can be pretty terrifying in how good they are.

 

Since level 1 critical mode is a doable thing, obviously, strategy > brute force by a large margin. Take it from me: KH is a game where you can cheat to be level 99 with Ultima Weapon and still get your ass kicked by Ansem-Riku and Dragon Maleficent. It might help to think of raw levels and equipment stats simply as increased margins for error. In other words, they don't make the fight easier; they make mistakes less brutal to recover from.

 

Memorize enemy AI to the point you can detect what they're going to do and react accordingly. Also, I forgot where I've heard this, but bosses are supposed to have some kind of "counter meter" that fills up the more you wail on a boss with combos. When it fills up, the boss unleashes a (probably unblockable) attack to break your onslaught. This is a fail-safe implemented so you can't just stun lock the boss until it dies. Pay attention to patterns and detect when the enemy is about to give you some payback. With that said, don't be afraid to play defensively. Take your time. If you're not sure you have an opening, don't risk it.

 

There's also no one-size-fits-all setup with equipment or abilities. That's probably obvious, but it's a problem I have. Pros know which keyblade can help them for which fight, in conjunction with your abilities. This is something you'll have to research on your own (I am in no way an authority on this subject), but also think about what works for you.

 

But at the end of the day? Practice, practice, practice. The pros got that way because they're so familiar with the game, they know how to exploit it. A lot of LPers doing challenges usually do trial runs before they start recording. A lot of it is just memorizing, which isn't always fun, but if you want to Kingdom Hearts like a champ, it just takes a lot of doing.
