Blooming Madness is not a brain-off damage Shikai. It wins by forcing short games, punishing bad positioning, and converting pressure into Irony. If you use it randomly, it feels clunky. If you play around range, height, and cooldowns, it becomes nasty.

↖ VV Ultimatum Blooming Madness Shikai Overview
Blooming Madness is a Legendary Shikai for Sword Reaper with a listed 1% roll chance.
Its kit is built around two core skills
- Shadow Game
- Mountain Game
Both create temporary combat conditions. Win the condition, then cash out with burst damage, follow-up slashes, or execute pressure.
| Feature | Value |
|---|---|
| Shikai | Blooming Madness |
| Rarity | Legendary, 1% chance |
| Class | Sword Reaper |
| Core Skills | Shadow Game, Mountain Game |
| Ultimate Mechanic | Irony |
| New Weapon Type | Dual Swords |
| Current Code | UPDATE2 for 20 Ability Rerolls |
The short version: Blooming Madness rewards clean timing, close-range pressure, and smart positioning.

↖ Dual Swords in VV Ultimatum
The new dual sword weapon type fits Blooming Madness well because the Shikai needs you close before you trigger its game skills.
Dual swords do not feel like a full combat overhaul. They are mainly a pressure tool.
| Action | Use |
|---|---|
| M1 Chain | Keeps enemies locked in melee pressure |
| Heavy Attack | Punishes blocks, whiffs, and slow reactions |
| Shikai Setup | Helps you stay close before Shadow Game or Mountain Game |
Use dual swords to force movement first. Then activate your Shikai skill.
Bad habit: popping Shadow Game from too far away.
Better habit: land M1 pressure, make them dash, then trigger the game.
↖ Blooming Madness Skills Explained
↖ Shadow Game
Shadow Game creates a shadow zone and swaps your available follow-ups into fast attacks like:
| Move | Use Case |
|---|---|
| Shadow Slash | Fast close-range punish |
| Shadow Fall | Better when the target tries to escape |
This is your main pressure tool.
Use it when the enemy is already reacting. Do not open with it from max range.
Best flow:
1. Start with M1 pressure
2. Force a block, dash, or panic movement
3. Activate Shadow Game
4. Use Shadow Slash if they stay close
5. Use Shadow Fall if they try to run
Result: you turn their defensive habit into free damage.
↖ Mountain Game
Mountain Game is the positioning skill. Its rule is simple: whoever is higher wins.
That means terrain matters. Stairs, ledges, rooftops, slopes, and platforms all become part of your kit.
| Condition | Result |
|---|---|
| You are higher | You gain the advantage |
| Enemy is higher | You risk losing value |
| Flat ground | Less reliable |
| Uneven terrain | Much stronger |
Observed follow-ups include Takioni and aerial slash pressure similar to Flash Flip.
Use Mountain Game when you already have height. Do not gamble it on flat ground unless you are confident.
↖ Best Blooming Madness Build
The best general build is Shadow Booting first.
Why? Blooming Madness has tight windows. Longer duration means more time to confirm hits. Faster Irony charge means more kill pressure.
| Priority | Upgrade | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Shadow Booting | Longer Shadow/Mountain Game duration, faster Irony charge |
| 2 | Damage | More punishment when enemies lose games |
| 3 | Execution | Can execute enemies on game loss at higher level |
| 4 | Reiatsu Efficiency | Better critical consistency later |
↖ Upgrade Notes
Shadow Booting Level 3
Longer Shadow Game and Mountain Game duration
Shadow Booting Level 7
Builds Irony much faster during Shikai mode
Damage Path
Shadow Game and Mountain Game deal more damage if the opponent loses
Execution Level 7
Game loss can execute opponents
Reiatsu Efficiency Level 10
Normal critical attack becomes Bushama
For most players, do not rush pure damage first. A missed high-damage window still does zero. Consistency wins more fights.
↖ Irony Ultimate: How to Charge and Use It
Irony is the payoff. You build it during Shikai mode by staying active and applying pressure.
Shadow Booting makes this much better.
| Irony Tip | Why It Matters |
|---|---|
| Stay aggressive in Shikai | Passive play wastes charge time |
| Use Shadow Booting | Faster ultimate access |
| Wait for enemy dash | Better hit chance |
| Do not panic-cast | Missing Irony loses your biggest threat |
Best Irony timing:
1. Pressure with M1s
2. Force enemy movement
3. Use Shadow Game or Mountain Game
4. Cast Irony when their escape is limited
Do not throw Irony into a fresh opponent with all cooldowns ready. Make them spend movement first.
↖ Best Blooming Madness Combos
↖ Safe Starter Combo
Use this while learning:
1. M1 chain
2. Shadow Game
3. Shadow Slash
4. M1 follow-up
5. Back off if cooldowns are down
Simple. Reliable. Teaches the timing.
↖ Anti-Runner Combo
Use this when the enemy keeps dashing away:
1. M1 pressure
2. Enemy dashes
3. Shadow Game
4. Shadow Fall
5. Re-engage with dual swords
This punishes panic movement hard.
↖ Mountain Game Height Combo
Use this near terrain:
1. Take high ground
2. Activate Mountain Game
3. Trigger Takioni
4. Continue aerial slash pressure
5. Build toward Irony
This is where Blooming Madness feels unfair. Height becomes damage.
↖ Irony Finish Combo
Use this when Irony is ready:
1. M1 pressure
2. Bait dash or block
3. Shadow Game
4. Irony
5. Chase only if they survive
Use Irony as a finisher, not as a random opener.
↖ PvP Tips for Blooming Madness
Blooming Madness is strong in PvP, but only if you stop wasting cooldowns.
| Problem | Fix |
|---|---|
| Shadow Game misses | Use it after M1 pressure |
| Mountain Game feels weak | Use high ground first |
| Irony misses | Bait movement before casting |
| Cooldowns feel long | Stop opening from bad range |
| Enemy runs nonstop | Use Shadow Fall-style follow-up |
The real strength is pressure stacking.
You hit them with M1s.
They dash.
You trigger Shadow Game.
They panic.
You cash out.
That is the loop.
↖ PvE and Farming Tips
Blooming Madness is easier in PvE because mobs are predictable.
Best farming cycle:
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Group enemies |
| 2 | Use dual sword M1s |
| 3 | Cast Shadow Game |
| 4 | Use follow-up slash |
| 5 | Save Irony for elites or bosses |
Do not waste Irony on low-health mobs. Save it for tanky targets.
For boss fights, stay close and rotate Shadow Game into M1 pressure. Use Mountain Game only when positioning is safe.
↖ VV Ultimatum Update 2 Code
Use this code:
| Code | Reward |
|---|---|
| UPDATE2 | 20 Ability Rerolls |
This matters because Blooming Madness has a 1% Legendary rate. Every reroll counts.
Redeem it fast. Roblox update codes often expire without much warning.
↖ FAQ
↖ Is Blooming Madness good in VV Ultimatum?
Yes. Blooming Madness is strong, especially in PvP, but it has a learning curve. It rewards timing, close-range pressure, and smart positioning instead of random skill spam.
↖ What is the Blooming Madness roll chance?
Blooming Madness is a Legendary Shikai with a listed 1% chance. It is rare, so use reroll codes and resources carefully.

Shadow Booting is the best first upgrade for most players. It gives longer game duration and helps charge Irony faster during Shikai mode.
↖ How does Mountain Game work?
Mountain Game rewards height advantage. If you are higher than the opponent, you are more likely to win the condition and get value from the skill.
↖ What is the Update 2 code in VV Ultimatum?
The code is UPDATE2. It gives 20 Ability Rerolls, which are useful if you are trying to roll Blooming Madness.
↖ Summary
Blooming Madness is a high-pressure 1% Legendary Shikai built around Shadow Game, Mountain Game, and Irony.
Best setup:
- Use dual swords for close-range pressure
- Upgrade Shadow Booting first
- Cast Shadow Game after M1 pressure
- Use Mountain Game from high ground
- Save Irony for confirmed kill windows
- Redeem UPDATE2 for 20 Ability Rerolls
Play it clean and Blooming Madness becomes a real problem. Play it randomly and it burns cooldowns for nothing.
