Special Moves

qcb +	5+11, 4+4, 9+19			HL			Kagami wo Hofuru Honoo - qcb + P Orochi Chris jumps forward with a flame in front of him the flame can negate projectiles but it comes out too slow and recovers too slow for this to be practical does not combo against crouching characters free cancellable into

dp +	5 + 2[胸上M], 2[胸上M], 5, 8, 19+11						Tsuki wo Tsumu Honoo - dp + P Chris performs a rising uppercut attack that comes out fairly quick this move does not have much vertical range compared to other dragon punch moves. dp + A does one hit in which Chris moves forward before rising, while dp + C does 4 hits, where he rises during the 4th free cancellable into free cancellable out of on the first three hits supercancellable on the third hit

Combos

Basic Combos

• cl.C / (cr.B, cr.A) >
  • f + A > [11.1%]
    • DM qcb hcf + A [38.6%] {1 stock}
    • hcf + K, [24.7%]
      • > dp + A [35.6%]
      • j.D (Corner.) [34.2%]
      • st.D (Corner. Timming required.) [35.9%]
    • dp + C [25.8%]
    • dp + C (3) >> DM qcb hcf + A [52.8%] {2 stocks}
    • qcb + C (Standing.) [21.2%]
    • dp + A [19.8%]
  • f + B (2) > [15.9]
    • qcb + C (Standing & close. A version will only combo in the corner.) [27.1%]
  • df + B [15.2%]

Damage above is based on cl.C as starter.

About cl.C / (cr.B, cr.A): cl.C deals more damage (~+5%). If you want to use just cr.A, the combos will deal ~-7% less damage. If you are close, you may replace cr.A for cl.A / cl.B for ~+1% more damage (cl.A only against standing).

About f + A: if you skip it, the combo damage is reduced by ~-2%. If you started with a weak attack and skip this, only hcf + K or dp +P will combo. Keep in mind that while weak attack > f + A leave you closer than just a weak attack, hard attack > f + A leave you further than just a hard attack, so, starting from a hard attack, you should skip f + A if you are not very close and want to combo into hcf + K or dp +P.

• qcf + A,
  • DM qcb hcf + A [40.6%] {1 stock}
  • dp + C (Close.) [28.3%]
  • dp + C (3) >> DM qcb hcf + A (Close.) [53.8%] {2 stocks}
  • qcb + C [24.5%]

The qcf + C deals a little more damage (~+2%) than qcf + A, but from many distances and positions not all flames will hit and is harder to follow up.

Max Mode

• qcf + A, j.D, cl.C > f + A >> BC, st.C (1) > f + A > hcf + K (5) > dp + C (3) >>
  • qcb + P (Standing)
  • DM qcb hcf + A

Strategies

KUSANAGI's childhood friend in the puerto rican downtowns, he is Justin Bieber when becames angry and its a strong zoning character focused in standing rushdowns, spam qcf + P its your main far distance tool but try to approach a failed anti air to hit low cr.B, cr.A, f + A to hcf + K juggles or your special overhead qcb + P for a jummp a ground projectile.

Sadly your main problem will be jumping opponent because you had a poor recovery anti air special, try to use crouching C or low hit him/her instead.

comboing a hcf + K its your main strategy, also you must be a battery character in middle or point in the team to gain stocks for a HSDM comebacks if your are an anchor one, or use it for his great Max Cancel Combos, a random qcb,hcf + P its a decent hit or miss idea when you only had at least 2 stocks.
