Overview Combos Matchups Strategy

Introduction

Chun Li doesn't know what to do with her life anymore.

Chun-Li is a highly technical midrange monster of a character. Sporting very fast, long-range pokes, an airdash, a fastfall, and jump cancels on all her normals, Chun has the ability to start and continue her pressure from surprisingly long distances. Her fastfall and airdash combine excellently with her jump cancellable normals, allowing Chun to continuously reset pressure on opponents who respect her. Her fastfall also synergizes further with her walljump; using fastfall after a walljump allows Chun to cross up cornered opponents!

As if her pressure wasn't already strong enough on it's own, Chun's combo game is no joke either Her pokes lead to fantastic damage from anywhere on the screen thanks to her 6HP, a command normal that can be canceled from all of her other normals, and has an follow up via an additional HP press to help add even more damage. To top it off, both parts of the move are special cancelable, allowing free conversions into her powerful juggle combos. Her combo game is also bolstered further by her fastfall, which can be combined with jump cancels to enable new links and juggles.

When it comes to specials, Chun has an incredible set of them, with both powerful offensive and defensive tools at her disposal. Her 236K Lightning Legs is a plus on block multihitting strike that is great for starting juggles and helping continue pressure, while her 623K [Name here I forget lmfao] is a powerful multi hit DP that starts juggles, has true invulnerability even on the meterless versions, and can be airdash canceled on EX. Her 426K Hazanshu is an overhead that can be snuck into pressure sequences to open people up, and it can also be canceled into after 236K to add extra damage at the end of combos, and her 236P Kikoken helps her control the long range with an extremely awkward to dodge projectile.

The real stars of Chun's kit, however, are her j.214K Fastfalland 214X Guard Cancels. Guard Cancels allow Chun to break the rules to an extent, forcing characters to pressure her differently due to their threat. Meanwhile, Fastfall is an incredibly defining tool, with uses in combos, pressure, and neutral when combined with her jump cancellable normals.

If you are looking for a highly technical, deep, and powerful character, with almost limitless room to improve, then Chun might be the character for you.

Strengths

Weaknesses

Great Pokes: Chun, as expected, has some fantastic pokes in the form of moves like 5HP, 2MK, and 6HP.
High Mobility: The combination of an airdash, fastfall, and walljump means Chun is extremely mobile, and is able to easily position herself around the stage.
Fantastic Defense: Chun has some of the best defensive options in the game. Between her combo-starting DP that's safe on block, and guard cancels that allow you to punish normally safe attacks, Chun has absolutely no problem getting opponents off of her.

Outclass Chun doesn't really have any real weakness, but she isn't the best character in the game, so there's that.

Normals

Note: Chun is able to jump cancel all of her normals, both on hit and block. Most normals have the jump cancel window start on their first active frame, but select moves have delayed jump cancel windows. These moves will have that information noted in their descriptions.

Standing Normals

The close and far versions are only different visually, they have the same frame data

Pretty average jab. Actually pretty decent range for a jab, you can mash P quite a lot before they're out of range.

Damage	Guard	Cancel	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block
40	-	-	0	60	0	+80	-80
2 hit slaps. Can be used as a replacement to 2HP in fastfall pressure resets if you see they're jumping a lot, as unlike 2HP it will juggle both hits properly.

Far Medium Punch

Damage	Guard	Cancel	Startup	Active	Recovery	On Hit	On Block

Mainly combo filler used for some links. Sees some use in mid-range pressure, but outclassed by 5HP in neutral.

THE Chun button. A massive, high damage, forward moving poke that converts easily into her BnBs. The threat of this button alone is enough to make Chun threatening in neutral. It also plays an important role in her combos, as a high damage, single hit move that works well in juggles.

Can be used to snipe IADs if you want a safer/easier alternative to DP. Not good for much besides that purpose, however.
