TECHNICAL | ORIGINAL S | DECAY & SUMMON CYCLE
Manual PvE: maintain decay and exploit the summon window. AI: useful output depends on whether the summon and follow-up reach the target. Arena: movement and control offer options, but no reliable universal matchup ranking was established. [S03, S30a]
Talents
TR first. The old sheet suggests partial left/BR afterward; either full left or BR is also an acceptable practical choice where points are limited. [S03]
Cards and build
Mustard is a documented skill-oriented option. Nomu is listed for Shigaraki in the community card guide, but the best package depends on the mix of summon, skill and normal damage. Start with general offense and test one specialist card at a time. [S06]
Manual play
Rough community opener: special, W, E, Q until Nomu appears, then Q/W/E during the summon window. This is a learning sequence. Manage special rather than leaving every toggle running, maintain decay uptime and avoid summoning into a target's invulnerable phase. [S30a]
Investment
Extra summon time and decay-focused talents are competing ways to improve the cycle. A claim about how much of his damage is decay comes from an older guide, not a measurement on your client. Ultimate-related resonance advice should be checked at the rank you own. [S03]
Practice tips
Record a full summon cycle and identify time where the summon or decay did not contribute. Compare the two talent directions only after you can repeat the sequence reliably.
