Special Moves

Shissou Hishou Zan (Charge b, f + P) - Choi dashes to right in front of the opponent, and finishes the job with his claws. It leaves you excessively open, making it extremely hard to use.

Senpuu Hien Sashi (Charge b, f + K) - Mechanism is the same as that from Hishō Kūretsuzan; see description there.

Tatsumaki Shippuu Zan (Charge d, u + P) - Either version is useful for combos and countering.

Hishou Kuuretsu Zan (Charge d, ub~uf + K, hold K to attack) - Do a lot of this, If you perform the command to the ub or u directions, he will head for the edge of the screen behind him; otherwise (uf), he will head for the edge of the screen behind the opponent; he then (if you are still holding the button) triangle jumps diagonally downward for the weak version or horizontally for the strong version. It’s generally okay to use this just to get to the edge of the screen quickly.

Kaiten Hien Zan (qcb + P) - Choi rolls up and spins, thereby slashing the opponent multiple times. It has nearly full-body invincibility on startup. After it hits or is blocked, the weak version jumps forward, and the strong version jumps backward. During this jump-off, it is now possible to cancel into Hishōkyaku, but just like later KOF’s, it can’t be done immediately (i.e., no combo); it becomes possible at the apex of his jump. Although Hishōkyaku has been weakened, it is generally a good follow-up (because otherwise you’re just floating there...).

Hishou Kyaku (In air, qcf + K) - Do this sometimes and sometimes from canceling j.C

Desperation Moves

Shin! Chouzetsu T. Shinkuu Zan (hcb x 2 + P) -

Hou'ou Kyaku (qcf, hcb + K) - Do this a lot from hit confirms

Combos

• crossup j.C > cr.B >> cr.A >> strong Tatsumaki Shippūzan or weak Hōōkyaku
• crossup j.C > cl.C >> Toorima Geri > (st.A >>) weak Hōōkyaku
• Hishō Kūretsuzan or Senpū Hien Shitotsu (midair hit) > Hōkō Tenkan > follow-up
• Nidanzan (2 hit) >> juggler
