§ Breakdown [AI-translated — feedback channel coming soon]

A concept paired with disengage, used when the pull-back is not a "reset" but a run-up for re-acceleration. Reading the moment the enemy can't chase (CDs down) and landing a second wave means they take it with their defensive resources dry. It's a macro-scale version of Aggro Ping Pong's breathing rhythm of distance: the typical two-step is to force out Suzu, Transcendence, etc. on the first hit, then re-engage and push through before those come back up.

When to Use [AI-translated — feedback channel coming soon]

Right after the first engage forced out their defensive ult or a key CD. Hitting the second push instantly in the window where the enemy has burned their chase CDs and can't back out.

Failure Modes [AI-translated — feedback channel coming soon]

Re-entering after the pull-back before HP and CDs are back, and getting repelled a second time. The enemy's CD cycle is fast enough that the re-engage is answered by the same CD again.
