Certain attacks can allow Yuya to drain nutrients from his opponent, siphoning their health and Heart Heat Gauge in small amounts for himself, visualized by wispy motion lines quickly moving from their gauges over to his. Any absorbed health is converted into slowly-regenerating white damage for Yuya, which will disappear if he is damaged.
Moves that drain a set amount of health and Heart Heat include:
- "It can appear and disappear freely..."
- "Come on, haggle with me a little more."
- "Shut up already, you idiot!"
- "Now he's got your scent!"
- "Give me your nutrients!"
Landing "I've got you!" or "Attack by following their scent!" additionally attaches Highway Star's footprints onto the opponent, continuously siphoning health and Heart Heat as a passive ailment. This effect is only available in User Mode and will be canceled if Yuya is struck, switches to Stand Mode, uses any skill, HHA, or GHA, or connects with his Throw; normal attacks will not cancel the effect.
Upon connecting, they will attach to the opponent and gradually Drain Nutrients from them. This effect will be canceled if Yuya is struck, switches to Stand Mode, uses any skill, HHA, or GHA, or connects with his Throw; normal attacks will not cancel the effect. If Yuya switches to Stand Mode or another skill is executed while Highway Star's footprints are active, they will disappear.
