#twin impact

[quirkwizard]

Would Shoda’s twin impact work when he throws things? I’m pretty sure I remember him throwing something and it gets boosted by his quirk but I’m not too sure if that’s true or not. How does his quirk work exactly? Can he use it while he’s throwing a rock and have it be extra impactful?

Yes, it would work that way. "Twin Impact" works by letting the user increase any kind of impact they make by several times over. This is regardless of where and how the impact is made as long as some impact is made and it's done with their own body. This can happen immediately, like when you punch someone, or be delayed for later, effectively setting up a mine of kinetic energy. We even see this when he uses his Quirk on the various enlarged objects made by Yui Kodai. He used his Quirk to both launch and redirect the items to attack Class 1-A. It's one of the many reasons I push that "Twin Impact" is such an underrated ability. Being able to control something with such force would be a really useful application. And you could effectively control it as long as you put enough kinetic mines on it. For example, you could just punch one object a bunch of times, throw it at someone, keep redirecting it, and basically use it like a kinetic bomb.

If you haven’t done so already, best quirks for volleyball?

BEST quirks for volleyball?

Going more with beach volleyball in mind. Because that is the cooler version of volleyball.

-High Spec: If that one beach episode of Avatar has taught me anything, it's that a sound mind, good tactics, and a overwhelming need to crush people all help win volleyball. This Quirk offers all that in spades.

-Twin Impact: I am once again suggesting you lace the ball with kinetic mines. Especially since this is a game where you have a lot of chances to hit the ball. Load that sucker up with so many blasts that it becomes a lethal weapon.

-Big Fist: We're going form volleyball to tennis. With their massive hands, the user could easily spike and bump the ball with a far greater margin for error. You might hit your teammates but that's there problem.

-Strongarm: Bring a whole new meaning to striking the volleyball. Seriously, you'd be able to react to the ball so fast with these quick hands. You're going to turn the ball into a projectile to be feared. More so then it already is.

-Clones: You could just crowd your side of the court of dudes. There is no way that ball is ever touching the ground with your side of the court engulfed with other versions of yourself. And if the ball goes up high, just make a human pyramid.

-Rabbit: Well, a big part of the game is being able to jump up and around your side of the court. You're basically going to become a wall that just jumps right at the ball and sends it right back to the other side of the net.

-Cloud: You can position yourself wherever you want on the court. No matter where the ball is going, you can just zip right over their on your little cloud and hit it. Maybe even catch the ball with the clouds, but that might be against the rule.

-Earth Flow: This might just be the worst one to deal with. You could literally shift the entire field in your favor if you wanted. Just open up a sink hole in the ground to consume the enemy time. And if the ref complains, just send them away too.

What are some Quirks that synergie with Impact Recoil in the sense that someone has both Impact Recoil and an additional Quirk? All I got was Danger Sense allowing the user to more accurately predict to counter an impact since the Quirk relies on good timing.

I'm ignoring "Absorb and Release" since I've gone over that combo enough times.

Honestly, there isn't a lot. It's an entirely defensive ability that only works on a single type of damage. All that combing it with other Quirks would result in would be changing what comes out of the Quirk, like kinetic energy for some other attack. Mental Quirks like "Danger Sense" or "High Spec" make sense, but they don't add to much to how the Quirk works. The most I could suggest is "Twin Impact". Because with that, it could potentially expand the power of "Impact Recoil" and amplify the force of the kinetic energy the user.

So you’ve done a lot of quirks about what quirks would all for one want from various groups, so I was wondering assuming he successfully managed to get all of them what kind of combinations do you think he could use along side the other quirks he has. (To save you some trouble, here are the ones I found: Anivoice, Hardening, Explosion, Twin Impact, Black, Poltergeist, Gyrate, Clones, Cement, Barrier, Sloshed, Incite, Compress, Magnetism, Telepath, Lock Down, Earthflow)

Thank you, that was very considerate of your to do. Obviously, this is a lot of Quirks and combinations to consider. I'm going to try and cover what I believe are the most interesting combinations.

Impact Recoil+Twin Impact: Probably the simplest combination here, but arguably the most affective one, massively increasing the power and control they have of any kinetic impact that hits them.

Warping+Clones: Combing the two goos, he could have the clones at as allies for their warping affect, either using it teleport the clones or around himself around each other for a tactical advantage.

Rivet Stab+Barrier: Rather then something to improve the power of "Rivet Stab", he could combine these to extend the range of the barriers, either in sheer scope or using the rivets to apply it to specific targets.

Air Cannon+Compress: Instead of using it to compress and store objects, he could have these two work together to compress the air itself, leading to far more dangerous and varied explosive air attacks.

Radio Waves+Telepath: This could combine together to have him be able to directly communicate through electronics, using it to confuse people with false information and talk to people with electronics.

Lock Down+Earth Flow: These two are good control options in their own right would be greater together, turning the battlefield into a bizarre mess of earth that becomes an impenetrable wall, becoming a total labyrinth of harden walls and traps.

Gyrate+Magnetism: Instead of merely spinning, his body could act as a giant magnet, either violently pushing or pulling himself or various metals around depending on what parts are spinning, how they are spinning, and how much they spin.

Sloshed+Poltergeist: I would be interesting to have the control of objects mixed with the disorientation effect to have it affect the objects around it, working to dismantle and take apart things to make a chaotic mess of enemies and the battlefield.

Hardening+Explosion: You could make it so that he can potentially fire off the hardened exterior, similar to what "Scales" does, but I think the more interesting and dangerous mix would be to make it explode whenever someone tries to attack him.

Incite+Anivoice: While I could see someone trying to spin this as controlling people, I believe that more likely result would be enhancing the animals under his control, turning random animals into dangerous, mutated minions under his control.

Black+Cement: I like the idea of this combining into an ability that lets the user merging into concrete, becoming capable of moving, and controlling concrete, having much greater scope of movement. Think something like Pica from One Piece.

What else do you think Shoda could do with Twin Impact?

I think one of the better bits of training he could do would be learning more fighting styles. Boxing works pretty well with him, as it's all about delivering as much force as possible, but it would be great to diversify how and where he could deliver the impact. And while he's training, he could simply use the impact on whatever he's practicing on. Applying and learning how to use the impacts on an insitinual level would help a lot as well, applying them more creatively then simply hitting someone harder. Heck, he could practically make a whole fighting style out of how he could move and control his opponents, like turning a kick to the shins into a move to knock down opponents.

As for it's growth, while there could be a greater multiplier to the impact, I think that it'd grow in how Shoda can influence his impact. And I'm not just talking about using it better, like using his impacts to leap at someone, but how the impact moves. He could learn how to better control the impact itself, like focusing all of it at a single point of maximum damage or only using part of the impact to use it later. Shoda could extend it to objects he is currently interacting with, potentially at the cost of how much power they would have, like using a sledge hammer would certainly have more impact then his own fist and using claws could give his impacts a slashing affect. Heck, maybe he could do a weaker variation of the air strikes Izuku can do.

For equipment, anything he could throw would be nice to have, using them as mediums for his impacts to make up for the limited range of the Quirk. Ball bearings would be pretty useful. He could just flick them at someone with his impact or roll them at someone from below, effectively working like bullets or claymore minds on demand. Costume itself could have anything to increase the force of his impact, so extra weight on his suit or studs around his fist would be useful. Another fun idea for his costume could be something like plates around himself. Before a fight, he could hit them to store an impact. This could let him push himself around at any point, like activating a plate to suddenly dodge an attack, or use it counter an attack that is about to land.

i was having a lighthearted argument with my friends about this the other day so which would be able to do the most physical damage: sugar rush, twin impact (assuming you’re firing it multiple times), or dupli arms?

Shoda is a non-factor here. While he could potentially outpace the other two by building up attacks, that would be unfair. Otherwise, he doesn't have many serious damage feats in his short showing. Not unless you scale the hit to Twenty Percent Izuku, which would be crazy. That only leaves Shoji and Sato, which depend on whether you are talking about them with or without Quirks. Without Quirks, it's Shoji. Besides the fact that Sato doesn't have any feats without "Sugar Rush", there is Word of God that Shoji is one of the strongest students in the class without Quirks. Which I would buy considering that he's able to carry well over a hundred pounds while sprinting without any signs of fatigue. With Quirks, it's Sato. This mostly comes down to the fact that Sato is able to punch through concrete, while Shoji hasn't shown anywhere near that level of strength, and may greater stronger with more sugar. Maybe you could scale Shoji to Monster Spinner, but even then I'm not sure.

Super move ideas for twin impact

If you wanted to fit a general theme, it could be fun to have him used boxing moves and techniques. Considering that boxing is refined to the point to deliver maximum impacts and it's been confirmed that Shoda likes it, it seems fitting for the Quirk. Imagine something like the Demsey Roll, but each punch hits like a truck. One idea is that Shoda could strike a person over and over again with regular punches before using the charges all at once, kind of like one of those delayed reaction attacks you see in martial arts media. A variation of this would be hitting the same spot more than once to unleash an attack after another, using it to get through heavy armor and the like. There could be some potential with items as well, such as him striking a single item several times before throwing it at someone. He could use this to either redirect an attack to hit them a certain way or cause all of the impacts to hit someone the second the item touches them, like a concussion grenade. I could see him trying to strike the air and immediately using the second impact charge. Obviously, the impact wouldn't be that powerful and would be carried by the second charge, acting like a weaker, but more focused version of the air attacks we see All Might use. Another possibility would be some form of manipulating enemy movement, like hitting them in a certain direction in order to lead to another impact.

Could we see any mix between Shoto, Neito, Kurogiri, Overhaul, Nirengeki, and Hitoshi? Theirs seem to be the strangest.

Going with "Warp Gate" and "Twin Impact".

New Quirk Name: Warp Punch or Hole Punch

This Emitter type Quirk allows the user to develop portals via hitting something with their fists. The user can activate them immediately, causing a human sized, white void to appear where they hit, or hold off on their activation, having the portals suddenly manifest out of nowhere. The user connect any portal to any other portal, regardless of when or where they were made. The user could apply this to their own body, like punching their fists together to make portals there. This makes the user extremely difficult to battle, hiding portals to who knows where no one could fine them. They can set up quick getaways, redirect income attacks, surprise foes with an out of nowhere portal, quickly deploy to locations the user has been to before, or just make day to day travel a breeze. Besides needing to hit the target, requiring some proper set up before the user can apply the ability, the portals are only one way and one use, limiting their availability. The small size of the portals make it next to impossible to use it on larger targets. The portals can only work within a fifty mile radius of each other and the user cannot have multiple portals active at a time.
