Build Comparison

Choosing your build:

Astral Ring Charging BuildStellar Outburst Build
It's a little strongerThe rotation feels smoother (in my opinion)
The build depends less on one core (Sakura)

Yeah honestly you’d only use Sushang if you have fun with her, so just choose the build you have more fun with.
