🔮 What is Hollow Nuke?
Hollow Nuke is a Signature Move available exclusively to players using the Infinity innate technique (Gojo-style). It releases a massive burst of cursed energy in an AoE radius around the player, dealing devastating damage that scales with both Cursed Energy output and the target's missing HP.
In Jujutsu Infinite's current PvP meta, Hollow Nuke is considered one of the top-tier burst finishers. When properly set up with Veil or other control moves, a single Hollow Nuke can eliminate even tanky opponents in a single hit — making it the go-to finisher for ranked matches.
Key Stats at a Glance

🔑 How to Unlock Hollow Nuke
Unlike regular moves that are automatically available, Hollow Nuke requires a Mastery Scroll to unlock. Here's how to get one:
Cursed Market
Mastery Scrolls occasionally appear in the Cursed Market for Cursed Energy or in-game cash. Check back daily — they rotate in stock.
- Check Cursed Market daily
- May cost 50,000+ CE
- Limited stock per day
Exchange Event
The Exchange Event is the most reliable source of Mastery Scrolls. Complete daily/weekly quests for event currency and exchange for scrolls.
- Most reliable farming method
- Tied to Exchange Event schedule
- Also drops Maximum Scrolls
Boss Drops
High-level bosses — especially the Tengen-Sama boss and Reggie boss — have a chance to drop Mastery Scrolls. Join a private server with a party for faster farming.
⚠️ Important Note
You must have the Infinity innate equipped to actually use Hollow Nuke, even after unlocking it with a Mastery Scroll. If you swap to a different innate, the move will be greyed out. Keep this in mind when building your loadout.
💥 The Infinity + Veil Combo
Hollow Nuke on its own is strong — but combined with Veil, it becomes broken. The Veil move creates a trap zone that roots or slows enemies, giving you a guaranteed window to charge and detonate Hollow Nuke without them escaping.
The One-Shot Combo (Step by Step)
- Set Veil: Place the trap zone at your feet or between you and the opponent
- Lure Opponent: Back away or bait them into the Veil zone
- Trap Activates: Veil roots/slows the enemy — they cannot escape
- Charge Hollow Nuke: Channel the move (brief cast time — about 1 second)
- Detonate: AoE explosion deals maximum damage to trapped target
- Result: Near-guaranteed one-shot in PvP, massive boss DPS in PvE
Why Veil is Essential
- Hollow Nuke has a ~1 second cast time — opponents can dodge or use iframe moves
- Veil eliminates the cast-time weakness by freezing them in place
- Without Veil, Hollow Nuke is good; with Veil, it's S-Tier broken
- Veil also synergizes with the Infinity innate's defensive properties
🏆 The Broken Build: Infinity + Gamblers Fever
Content creators have discovered that pairing Gamblers Fever with the Infinity + Veil + Hollow Nuke core creates the most overpowered PvP build in Jujutsu Infinite. Here's why:
Gamblers Fever Effect
Gamblers Fever is a passive or item set that grants guaranteed critical hits when certain conditions are met (e.g., low HP, full combo, etc.). When every Hollow Nuke crits, the damage ceiling is astronomical.
- Guaranteed crits = 2x+ damage multiplier
- Stacks with Hollow Nuke's already-high base damage
- Makes the combo virtually unwinnable against
Full Build Core
- Innate: Infinity (Gojo-style)
- Core Move: Hollow Nuke (burst finisher)
- Setup Move: Veil (crowd control)
- Passive/Set: Gamblers Fever (guaranteed crits)
- Secondary: Domain Expansion or teleport for mobility
Gameplay Loop
- Open with Infinity defensive moves to survive initial engagement
- Build focus using quick attacks or Black Flash combos
- Set Veil to trap the opponent
- Trigger Gamblers Fever passive for guaranteed crit window
- Cast Hollow Nuke for maximum burst damage
- Opponent eliminated before they can react
💜 Hollow Purple vs Hollow Nuke — What's the Difference?
Many players confuse Hollow Purple with Hollow Nuke — and for good reason. Both are high-damage AoE moves associated with Gojo's abilities. Here's the breakdown:
| Feature | Hollow Nuke | Hollow Purple |
|---|---|---|
| Damage Type | Pure AoE cursed energy burst | Red + Blue combined (both effects) |
| Innate Required | Infinity | Limitless or both Red/Blue moves |
| Visual | Large energy sphere / shockwave | Purple swirl (Red + Blue mixed) |
| Unlock Method | Mastery Scroll | Both Red & Blue moves + synergy |
| PvP Rating | S-Tier (one-shot potential) | A-Tier (strong but harder to combo) |
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use Hollow Nuke without Infinity?
No — Hollow Nuke is locked to the Infinity innate technique. If you swap to another innate, the move becomes unavailable even if you've unlocked it. Make sure Infinity is always equipped when running this build.
Q: What stats should I prioritize for a Hollow Nuke build?
Prioritize Cursed Energy for maximum Hollow Nuke damage scaling, followed by Strength for general combat viability. If running the Gamblers Fever variant, also invest in survivability stats since you'll be playing aggressively.
Q: Does Hollow Nuke work in PvE?
Yes — while Hollow Nuke truly shines in PvP, it's also excellent for PvE boss fights. The AoE damage makes it effective against groups of mobs, and the one-shot potential applies to world bosses as well. Pair it with the Domain Shard Farming strategy for maximum efficiency.
