One more thing that i think is important:
Shuriken can be used to gain air time after a static jump or after an air attack, a great example for this would be avoiding rasetsus grab after an in air XX with the lunar. Combo: XX B Y. If we do not throw shuriken, we would land in his grab but with the added air time we land just after his grab...
Here is an example of that (i know the resolution is not the best, but it has to do): https://youtu.be/yFYZSObMEJg?t=21
Also important: Shuriken do NOT stun archers that have their bow out. they only get stunned by a Shuriken if they are in melee mode. To stun Archers, just use quick in air Bow shots
