In the Roblox asymmetrical survival game PURSUITCORE by TamaCorp, entering Last Man Standing (LMS) as Nyan completely retools her playstyle from a passive team healer into an agile, solo survivalist. When all other Users are eliminated, Nyan's support ability Tartshare automatically transforms into a 5-second personal speed boost, accompanied by her dedicated LMS soundtrack, "SPARKLES AND RAINBOWS."
Because Nyan possesses no offensive stuns to fight off the Terminator directly, surviving the final minutes of a round requires precise cooldown management between her speed bursts and invulnerability frames.
Pursuitcore Nyan LMS Music: Track Details and History
During standard gameplay, PURSUITCORE plays ambient map tracks and high-intensity Terminator chase music. Once a single User remains on the map, the game shifts into the LMS state and plays that character's individual survival theme.
| Detail | Information |
|---|---|
| Current LMS Track | "SPARKLES AND RAINBOWS" |
| Artists / Credits | BonyAudio / DJBassFox28 (Electronic Nyan Cat Remix) |
| Song Length | 182 seconds (approx. 3:02) |
| Implementation Date | May 16, 2026 (STRIFE: ACT 1 update) |
| Previous LMS Track | "Nyan Cat" (203 seconds) |
Prior to the STRIFE: ACT 1 update in May 2026, Nyan utilized a standard 203-second version of the classic internet meme theme. The developers subsequently replaced it with "SPARKLES AND RAINBOWS," an electronic remix credited in community workshop data to BonyAudio and DJBassFox28.
The track mirrors Nyan's canonical lore: despite being a non-combatant civilian cat caught in life-or-death trials against lethal Terminators, she functions as an adrenaline-fueled partygoer who uses high-energy rhythm and Pop-Tart consumption to push toward the exit portal.
Nyan's LMS Ability Mechanics: Tartshare Conversion
Nyan is designed primarily as a support user with 100 base HP, a walk speed of 16 studs per second, and a standard sprint speed of 30 studs per second. In standard team play, her primary ability—Tartshare (Q key, 28-second cooldown)—emits a small aura that tethers to an ally, regenerating 4 HP per second up to a 25 HP cap while granting both players a +7 speed boost.
During Last Man Standing, Tartshare shifts into Tart Boost:
- Ability Transformation: Instead of generating a healing tether or circular aura, activating Tartshare during LMS instantly grants Nyan a flat +7 speed boost for 5 seconds.
- Speed Value: The +7 buff elevates Nyan's run speed from 30 to 37 studs per second. Because most baseline Terminators move at 36 studs per second, this boost allows her to outpace standard killer movement in open ground.
- No Cooldown Reduction: Unlike characters such as Dante (whose stun duration doubles) or Fukatsuki (whose Flute cooldown is reduced during LMS), Nyan receives no native cooldown reductions. Tartshare retains its full 28-second cooldown.
Movement and Defense: Utilizing Slide in LMS
Because Tartshare cannot heal Nyan herself (she has a canonical tolerance to her own tarts), her defensive survival relies entirely on Slide (E key, 16-second cooldown).
- Duration and Invulnerability: Slide propels Nyan forward for exactly 1 second, providing complete invulnerability frames (i-frames) for the entire duration.
- Movement Constraints: Nyan cannot steer or turn while sliding. The dash begins with a sharp velocity spike and decelerates rapidly to a near-complete stop upon conclusion. Colliding with a wall will not cancel the slide early.
- Defensive Applications: Slide allows players to bypass lethal high-damage attacks without taking damage, including Party Pony's charge or Jack Noir's tentacle grabs. It also triggers ground hazards like Sweep's mines safely if crossed while i-frames are active.
Survival Strategy as the Last User Standing
Without offensive stuns like Dante's Hero Blade or Tac9's Dropkick, a solo Nyan cannot immobilize the Terminator. Escaping requires stalling until the portal timer completes or finishing the final generator fuel deposits.
Stagger Your Mobility Cooldowns
Because Tartshare has a 28-second cooldown and Slide has a 16-second cooldown, using both buttons simultaneously leaves Nyan completely unprotected for over a quarter of a minute.
- Trigger Tartshare when breaking line of sight to gain raw horizontal distance across long map corridors.
- Reserve Slide strictly as a reactive dodge when a Terminator closes the distance to strike with an M1 attack or gap-closing dash.
Exploit Terrain and Verticality
PURSUITCORE enforces a 1.5-second jump cooldown on all Users and Terminators after touching the ground. Jump pads scattered across maps (such as Lost Mall and Silent Pwnyville) also go on cooldown after activation.
- Slide can be used to launch Nyan across structural gaps that Terminators cannot clear with a standard jump, forcing the killer to path around obstacles.
- Avoid sliding into dead ends or enclosed corners, as the deceleration at the end of Slide leaves Nyan stationary and vulnerable if she misses her trajectory.
Managing Specific Terminator Matchups
- Party Pony: Pony relies on landing a kick (2-second stun) into an M1 or charge for massive combo damage. Watch for her startup animations and use Slide to absorb the impact using i-frames.
- DotX: With a natural 38 run speed and tools like Drop Dash and flying via "Found You," DotX can outpace Nyan even while Tart Boost is active. Path tightly around obstacles rather than running in straight lines.
- Captain Limewire: Limewire exerts heavy ranged pressure through his gun and hook. Hug wall corners to break projectile sightlines, as getting hooked results in severe damage that Nyan cannot heal off.
- Jack Noir: Jack's ultimate ability, Red Miles, targets surviving players across the map. Because the homing red tendrils struggle with sharp turning radiuses, players can avoid the majority of the projectile swarm by moving in tight circular paths until the effect subsides.
Frequently Asked Questions
What song plays during Nyan's LMS in PURSUITCORE?
Nyan's official Last Man Standing theme is "SPARKLES AND RAINBOWS," composed by BonyAudio and based on the Electronic Nyan Cat Remix by DJBassFox28. It replaced the original 203-second default "Nyan Cat" audio in the STRIFE: ACT 1 update on May 16, 2026.
Can Nyan heal herself during Last Man Standing?
No. Nyan cannot heal herself with Tartshare in standard rounds or during LMS. Her only method of receiving heals in normal team play is through Fukatsuki's Statue ability. In LMS, Tartshare operates strictly as a 5-second movement speed enhancement.
What are the exact cooldowns for Nyan's abilities in LMS?
Nyan's cooldowns do not shorten during LMS. Tartshare remains on a 28-second cooldown, while Slide remains on a 16-second cooldown (adjusted from 18 seconds in the February 9, 2026 patch).
How fast is Nyan when using Tartshare in LMS?
Activating Tartshare provides a +7 speed boost for 5 seconds. Added to her base running speed of 30 studs per second, this increases her movement speed to 37 studs per second, making her faster than standard 36-speed Terminators.
