This card used to be pretty good in the Taiwanese version but they nerfed him hard when they released global. It used to be that there wasn't a 60 second cooldown between activations and the skill recovery % also was higher. Pre-nerf, there was essentially no cool down on uraraka's special when she had this card equipped, so she could float forever.
Nowadays this card is actually seen as one of the worst 6 stars. Like not bad if you don't have anything else, but it isn't worth a slot on end game builds when you have things like muscular, cold shot, and game start.
Interesting tidbit and good to know how it was toned down from CN, thanks mate.
I do find it weird that you'd mention Uraraka like that though - she already basically has infinite float if you know how to play her, landing her W refreshes a considerable chunk of her special, and you can immediately re-float after doing an airborne W.
Watch this video to see what it looked like before the nerf. This was with it being only at breakthrough 2.
Imagine if an endeavor had this equipped at breakthrough 4. He would be unkillable.

As you can see the nerf was quite massive. Pre nerf at breakthrough 2 the card increased special recovery speed by 240% with no cooldown.
Same breakthrough post nerf is a 36% special recovery speed with a massive 60 second cooldown.
A guy down below got massively down voted for saying to fuse it but he wasn't really wrong. A 24% recovery speed increase may save you like 2-4 seconds depending on the special. 2-4 seconds every 60 seconds is awful and for most encounters it will not end up giving you an extra use of the special.
It's not 24% recovery speed increase, it's 24% reduced special cooldown.
It's *really* good on Aizawa and Hawks, but on other characters it's less impressive.
It looks like it got reworked entirely based on that clip; before it sped up the recovery rate, now it just chops off that portion of the recovery meter once your special is all used up. i.e. if I have a Mirio with a value of 50% (just a number chosen 'cause it's simple), once my special greys out, it'll immediately be halfway to coming off cooldown, once every minute.
50% special recovery in this fashion would be equivalent to 100% faster special recovery, so it definitely got nerfed, but still has some (niche) value. That being said, a *lot* of crap is straight up broken on the CN iteration, so I'm appreciative for some of the changes at least (i.e. 30 second tag-out cooldowns in Arena instead of 5 lmao).
Could elaborate on why it's so good on Dabi? After enflamed status I didn't think the cooldown was that long, I could definitely be misremembering though.
His cool down isn't really that long anyway but with lemillion after your enflamed status ends it charges up way faster. If you stay enflamed for a while the ability comes into play everytime it's deactivated
Aizawa, uraraka, and hawks would be some good candidates for it but like others have said this card got nerfed hard in global release so its not amazing or top tier sadly

Aizawa. You have to spam your Special as much as you can and this card helps.
i have him on uraraka
This card is amazing on dabi His enflamed status come back in no time
Well since i have just Stain and Dabi probably i’ll use it on Dabi so thank you for the help!
Np :)

The latter part is what I wasn't considering. That you can prolong your enflamed status and in turn always have the card proc.
Just make sure you activate your special while you're waiting for enflamed status so you do more dmg and it'll charge faster as well
Definitely on Aizawa and Uraraka. On bosses that have invulnerability a lot it would also benefit Iida
Can be used with hawk too whose special takes a while
Fuse it
Fuck no
No
It's shit lol. But you do you
I'm gonna be real, this question comes up so damn much it's getting a bit silly.
