VV Ultimatum Blooming Madness Shikai Guide: Best Build, Skills, Dual Swords, Combos, and Update 2 Code

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 Guide: Best Build, Skills, Dual Swords, Combos, and Update 2 Code



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.

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.

ActionUse
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:

MoveUse 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.

ConditionResult
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.

PriorityUpgradeReason
1Shadow Booting Longer Shadow/Mountain Game duration, faster Irony charge
2Damage More punishment when enemies lose games
3Execution Can execute enemies on game loss at higher level
4Reiatsu 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 TipWhy 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.

ProblemFix
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:

StepAction
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.
