Introduction

A former high-kicking ICPO agent, Chun-Li looks after Li-Fen, a victim of the Black Moon Incident. With Shadaloo sundered, she now runs Kung Fu classes and has become a well-loved member of the local community.

Chun-Li is a tried and true footsies character, with great emphasis on having many options to control space and punish her opponents in neutral. She has a little bit of everything when it comes to her general tools, but for the most part they're tailored toward whiff punishes and space control.

With the highest backward walk speed in the game and one of the highest forward walks, Chun is at a clear advantage when spacing out of an opponent's range ambiguously. Her poking normals compliment this grounded speed; with 2MK, 4/6MP, and 5HP being some standouts that can easily give a ton of mileage in neutral. To top it all off, she has Kikoken, a highly versatile fireball that can be used as an extended poke, confirm, or approach tool depending on the situation.

But when the opponent is tired of dealing with Chun's grounded footsie game, she is still in luck—as she has some of the most varied and rewarding anti-air tools in the entire game. She can keep it simple by anti-airing with Tensho Kicks, go for a Forced Knockdown or avoid being punished with 5MK, air-to-air with her many tools to convert air hits into combos; or go for 5HK, the slowest and riskiest option that gives absolutely devastating meterless anti-air reward. If you are jumping against Chun, she always has a very strong option to punish you, no matter the situation.

Thanks to her new Serenity Stance and Punish Counters, Chun gets great rewards off of whiff punishes in neutral without any meter required. It also can bolster her oki in the right scenarios, giving her high/low/throw mix that is very hard to see if she can manage to set it up properly. Drive Rush also helps to create stance frame traps that make an opponent unsure of when to press, while you can end in Kikoken to make the string safe. She also has a unique stance launcher that is a valuable combo tool, netting reliable safe jump setups, corner carry, and super confirms.

Perhaps the most glaring flaw with Chun is her offense, as her true mix tends to require an advantageous knockdown to be unmashable (which she can struggle to get resourceless) and she notably lacks the ability to throw loop. This removes a key layer of offense from her gameplan and can urge her to retreat back to mid-range poking once a throw is landed. She has some simple frame traps in the form of 5MP > 5LP, but this is far from her specialty compared to the rest of the cast. Another weak part of her offense is jump-ins: Chun's jump is floatier than other characters, and her air buttons are far more geared towards hitting air-to-air than air-to-ground. She has an anti-air baiting tool in the form of Air Lightning Legs, but this is a gimmicky option that whiffs on crouchers and is usually punishable. She may have to resort to using Hazanshu as a read on fireballs, which simply isn't as advantageous as a jump-in even if it gives good reward on a Punish Counter. If you like to jump in neutral a lot, Chun is probably not the pick.

There are some fairly difficult and unforgiving aspects of playing Chun. LK and MK Lightning Legs are her easiest cancel off of buttons, but they're -8 on block—she has to either have charge for Kikoken or use Drive on EX Legs to cancel into a safe special move. She relies on charge for resourceless knockdowns, as Spinning Bird Kick is her main way to accomplish this. A charge character that is meant to walk a lot can be a steep learning curve to begin with, as it's easy to accidentally input Kikoken or not charge long enough when attempting to move back and forth in neutral. The ranges of her special moves and the fact that each version of Kikoken dissipates after set distances may demand sharp knowledge of spacing. Her anti-airs all have unique ups and downs to them, and her main DP style anti-air being a 22 input can be very unwieldy and precise. Her optimal combos can be quite tricky, requiring situational awareness, stance cancels, and launcher combos with unusual button timings. Dropping some of her harder routes can also leave her in a highly punishable state. Lastly, the sheer amount of options she has in general can make her feel overwhelming and daunting to pick up.

All in all, Chun-Li is a rewarding character to master that can still be accessible simply by how strongly she rewards fundamentals. She doesn't sacrifice versatility for her strengths, and her many options let her both play unpredictably and have answers to any situation. If you want a character that can do a lot in the right hands and thrives on punishing opponents' habits, Chun-Li is a great pick.

Pick if you like:	Avoid if you dislike:
Having a strong set of neutral tools backed up by the second fastest back walk in the game High reward whiff punishes and anti-airs to make your opponent think twice about playing sloppy Having a wide and varied toolset to deal with any situation	Missing a throw loop Weak approaches with floaty jump-ins and a slow Drive Rush Having to open people up with punishes in neutral rather than pressure strings Unforgiving combos and confirms with high execution requirements Valuing reactive play over aggression

Hitbox Images	🟥 (Red): Attack hitbox Appears pink for Throw hitboxes 🟩 (Green): Vulnerable hurtbox that can be hit by strikes/projectiles If a move's hitbox and hurtbox overlap, the colors blend to appear orange 🟦 (Blue): Vulnerable throw hurtbox Will be thrown if Pink throw hitbox touches Blue throw hurtbox
Active	How many frames a move remains active (can hurt opponents) for. For projectiles with a maximum active period, a value may be listed in [brackets], but this number is not factored into the move's total frame count. For multi-hit moves with no gaps between the active hitboxes, active frames are listed as X,Y (or sometimes X*Y) For multi-hit moves with gaps between hits, active frames are listed as X(n)Y where n = the frame gap between hitboxes.
Cancel	Available options for canceling one move into another move. "Chn": Chain cancel (Light normals; specific chain options listed in Description) "TC": Target Combo "Sp": Special move "SA": Super Art (if a number is listed, refers only to that specific Super; SA3 = Lv.3 Super Art) "Jmp": Jump cancel (usually on hit only, if applicable) "SS": Serenity Stream (Chun-Li's stance) If one hit of a multi-hit attack is cancelable, this can be indicated with (1st), (2nd), etc. Occasionally, a move can be canceled only into a specific follow-up (e.g. Dee Jay [4]6P > 22PP); this can be indicated by listing the move input in the Cancel field, or with an asterisk that is explained in the move notes (Sp*)
Cancel Hitconfirm Windows	Hitconfirm reaction windows into Special Moves, Target Combos, and Super Arts. Refers to the amount of time (in frames) you have to cancel one attack into another attack on reaction e.g. most cancelable 2MKs have a 13 frame window to cancel into a Special/Super on reaction, making them nearly impossible to hitconfirm Counts from the first frame the attack connects until the final cancelable frame Visual effects like hitsparks and HP drain do not actually occur until frame 2; the first frame is still counted to keep the numbers consistent with previous games, and because it is technically possible to start reacting to the character's reeling animation on frame 1 If a Target Combo is cancelable into another attack, the hitconfirm window will include the entire sequence starting from the first hit If there is a frame gap on block between hits of the TC, the hitconfirm window may also be included for just the followup hit Some sequences like Ken's 5MP~HP TC may have a range of values listed (43f~47f). In this example, inputting 5MP~HP at its usual timing gives a 43f hitconfirm into a Special/Super. Delaying the chain into HP gives more total time for the final hitconfirm.
Damage	Attack damage on hit. Multi-hit moves may have the damage listed for individual hits as X,Y (or sometimes X*Y). Sometimes a move's damage changes depending on which active frame connects, or on cinematic vs. non-cinematic hits; in this case, multiple values may be listed, and it will be clarified in the move description.
Damage Scaling	Some moves cause additional damage scaling in combos. Refer to Game Data page for a more detailed breakdown. Scaling Types: Starter: When a move begins the combo, the next attack is scaled by X percent e.g. Ryu 2MK (20% Starter) > Hadoken: Hadoken is at 80% damage scaling Combo: When a move is comboed into, the next attack is scaled by X percent or X number of hits e.g. Ryu 2HP > OD High Blade Kick (2-Hit Combo Scaling) > Shoryuken: Shoryuken is at 70% damage scaling (100% > 100% > [skip 80%] > 70%) e.g. Cammy 5HP > OD Spiral Arrow (5% Combo Scaling) > Cannon Spike: Cannon Spike is at 75% damage scaling (100% > 100% > [80-5 = 75%]) Immediate: When a move is comboed into, this attack is scaled by X percent e.g. Drive Impact Crumple (20% Starter) > Throw (20% Immediate): Throw is at 60% damage scaling Multiplier: A damage scaling multiplier applies after Perfect Parry (50%) and mid-combo Drive Rush (15%). Any hits in the combo continue their usual damage scaling, but reduced by these amounts. These can bring the minimum scaling below the usual 10%, and they stack with each other; as a result, the minimum scaling can reach 4% using a long Drive Rush combo after Perfect Parry. Minimum Scaling: The lowest damage scaling that can be applied to an attack. Super Art Level 1/2/3 generally has 30%/40%/50% minimum scaling respectively. This ensures the attack will still do reasonable damage even at the end of a heavily scaled combo.
Drive Rush Cancel Advantage	Refers to the frame advantage when canceling a normal, command normal, or Target Combo into Drive Rush on hit or block (abbreviated as DRC for Drive Rush Cancel). This is calculated at the moment a follow-up attack can be input, not at the moment the character can block or perform movement options. An attack that with DRC +8 on Hit can link into an 8-frame attack, and DRC +4 on Block can create a true blockstring into a 4-frame attack. Note that any DRC on Block worse than +4 cannot form a true blockstring, allowing the opponent to interrupt with an invincible reversal. Most light normals are slightly negative after a DRC on block, meaning the opponent can mash their fastest normal to guarantee a counter-hit (though this requires fast reactions). The attacking character could punish this with Light > DRC into an immediate invincible attack, but this would be an incredibly expensive and high-risk gambit.
Forced Knockdown	Most airborne command normals, special moves, and Super Arts put the user in a "Forced Knockdown" state. While in this state, an air knockdown will occur when being hit by any attack, even if it would otherwise cause an air reset. As an example, Ryu's 2HP causes an air reset when used as an anti-air. Against a move like Cammy's Hooligan Combination, however, the 2HP puts her into an air knockdown state. This allows Ryu to successfully cancel 2HP into Shoryuken for a juggle, similar to how a Drive Impact wall splat works. Taking advantage of Forced Knockdown juggles is important for dealing with moves like Ken's Dragonlash, Dhalsim's Air Teleport, or Kimberly's 6HK~Hop sequence. Moves that already cause an air knockdown, like most j.MP air-to-airs, will not display the "Forced Knockdown" message.
Guard	Refers to the direction an attack must be blocked. L is for Low attacks (must be blocked crouching), H is for High attacks/overheads (must be blocked standing), LH is for attacks that can be blocked crouching or standing. T is for Throw attacks which cannot be blocked.
Juggles	When a character is put into an Air Knockdown state, it is often possible to follow up with a Juggle attack before they hit the ground. In the simplest terms, there are 2 main juggle states: Free Juggle: any attack can juggle, causing an Air Reset or an Air Knockdown Limited Juggle: only specific attacks with juggle potential may juggle The following is a more detailed overview of the SF6 juggle system: Juggle Count (JC): The status of the character being juggled. A high JC limits which attacks can work in juggles. JC0: free juggle state - any attack that can hit an airborne opponent will work JC1+: limited juggle state - juggle only works if the attack's Juggle Limit ≥ defender's Juggle Count Juggle Start (JS): When starting a juggle, the opponent's JC will be set to this value. May be different vs. standing and airborne opponents. Attack with Juggle Start value of 3 will put opponent at JC3, so only attacks with Juggle Limit value ≥ 3 can follow up Juggle Increase (JI): When opponent is already in a juggle state, attacks will increase the opponent's JC by this amount. Airborne opponent at JC1 followed by attack with Juggle Increase value of 3 will set opponent to JC4 Juggle Limit (JL): Property of an attack hitbox that determines whether it connects on a juggled opponent. The JL must be ≥ the opponent's JC to hit successfully. An uppercut with a JL value of 5 will connect on an opponent at JC5 or below, but will whiff on JC6 opponent Most normals have a JL value of 0, meaning they only work in Free Juggle (JC0) states Some multi-hit attacks have different JL values on each hit, so a 3-hit move may only hit twice in juggles An example to tie everything together: An attack (JS3) launches opponent into the air (Opponent now at JC3) Followed up with an attack (JI2/JL4); it connects, because JL4 ≥ JC3 (Opponent now at JC5) Attempts to juggle again with same attack (JL4), but whiffs because JL4 < JC5 (Opponent hits the ground) Drive Rush notes: DR normals have a Juggle Start/Increase value of 0 DR normals have +3 added to their usual Juggle Limit
On Hit/Block	These are frame advantage values when the attack hits or is blocked. If the number is positive, then the move will recover before the defender can act again. If the number is negative, the defender will be able to act before the attacker and maybe even punish. KD refers to knockdown on hit, and the listed KD Advantage refers to how many frames the attacker can act before the defender finishes their wakeup animation. Note that generally, there is an extra +2 hit advantage on Counterhits and +4 hit advantage on Punish Counters (exceptions are noted in the description).
Recovery	How many frames it takes for a move to finish after the active frames have finished. For projectiles, recovery is considered to begin after the first active frame. Moves with different recovery values on hit/block/whiff may have multiple values listed like X(Y), with specific details listed in the description.
Startup	How many frames it takes before the move becomes 'active' or have a hit box. The last startup frame and the first active frame are the same frame, meaning all values are written as Startup + 1. Moves with multiple relevant startup values may be listed as X(Y); for example, a move that hits airborne first before hitting grounded opponents, or a 2-hit move where the first hit whiffs at some ranges.

An fantastic jab with good range, low recovery and huge advantage on hit. At +5, it combos naturally into 5MP and 5LK on regular hit and 2MK on a Counter Hit; this combined with Chun's walk speed make it a very potent move while fishing for hits and checking opponents in neutral. It also combos into 4HP off of Drive Rush, which is very useful in setting up stance HK launcher combos and confirming off of light hits in general.

Short range, plus on block elbow. Naturally frame traps on block into 5LP and can link on hit into 2MP to build charge for a Spinning Bird Kick ender. Light normals tend to be better for tick throws as 5MP's pushback is surprisingly high, but it's good for stagger pressure and sets up a shimmy relatively easily. Chun's arm is fully disjointed throughout the move, giving it some niche use cases to stuff approaching special moves or Drive Rushes when 5MK or 3HP are too slow.

A long range and committal button that moves forward. One of Chun-Li's defining neutral tools for whiff punishing. It's also quite whiff punishable itself, however, and the forward movement makes it prone to being interrupted. Stance cancelable, but not special cancelable—the stance will give no frame traps on block and does not enter in time to block a Drive Impact like other buttons do, making it mostly useful for comboing Stance LK on Counter and Stance MK on Punish Counter. It can combo into Stance LP naturally at close range, but this is fairly impractical since you'll mostly use it from mid range. The stance strings on block can properly frame trap in Burnout, but even regardless of that it may still be worth going for if the opponent is respecting your strings.

Like Chun's other lights besides 5LP, her 5LK has unusually short range compared to most other characters. It has use in footsies and abare nonetheless, as Chun can easily make up for lack of range with her incredible walkspeed. Far less plus on hit than 5LP, making hit confirming from it far more difficult. Like other characters, she can use it as a simple ender for her light strings, especially good meterless as it's the only light that always combos into MK Legs.

Whiffs on crouching opponents
Cancel Hitconfirm Window: 16f

A non-committal and relatively forgiving anti-air button that can make up for the precision of Chun's other anti-air options. Though 5HK and air-to-air are usually the best damage reward off of a normal anti-air hit, if an opponent is doing a special move in the air that causes them to receive a Forced Knockdown OR you use this move out of a Drive Rush, you can get significantly more damage without any of the commitment of those other options. Without Forced Knockdown, you can use the move's special cancel to meaty a LP/MP Kikoken on the opponent's landing if you keep your back charge going, typically giving around a +16 situation. You also usually have enough time to do a Parry Drive Rush after this connects, letting you meaty a Drive Rush normal as they land to start pressure. It's an especially good button to keep in mind when your opponent is trying to bait your anti-airs, or if their jump-ins are simply too fast or ambiguous to Tensho on reaction (e.g. Juri's divekick or Dee Jay's Knee Shot).

Whiffs on crouching opponents
Puts airborne opponents into limited juggle state
Cancel Hitconfirm Window: 18f (Stance)

A long, forward moving kick that whiffs on crouchers but gives incredible reward if used in the right situations. It primarily works as Chun's farthest horizontally reaching anti-air, trading speed and consistency for a highly damaging juggle combo without any meter required. Against some of the more obnoxious jump=ins in the game, extremely precise spacing and timing is required to avoid getting stuffed, but its horizontal reach makes it good for catching back jumps in the corner or air stall moves that will make your other anit-airs whiff, such as Kimberly's Elbow Drop. It is also Chun's highest damage normal along with 2HP and has good range, making it useful as a punish starter for DPs and other highly reactable scenarios—just remember that it may whiff on moves with any crouching recovery frames. Even though it isn't usually a good idea to use in pressure because most people tend to default to crouch blocking on defense, if you spot an opponent trying to parry, it will force them to stand and therefore block/parry this move, giving you a solid stance cancel opportunity that nets an optimal combo on hit and frame traps on block.

2LP is a bit stubby, often whiffing in chains if not starting point blank. Its main advantage over 5LP is that it maintains down charge during chains. However, it chains more slowly, making it slightly more susceptible to Drive Impact.

A pretty standard looking 2MP thats useful in combos from 5MP and has good advantage on Counters to go into stance normals. It may seem bad to throw out due to its middling range, but the space it covers can be quite useful as a defensive counterpoke. It's also a solid punish button for when 5MP or 6HP would whiff, being only 1 frame slower and leading into stance MK on Punish Counter.

Chun's 2HP might seem a little slow to use at first; but its two hits, active frames, range, and stance cancel advantage gives it a lot of potential uses in meaties and pressure. Even without any meaty timing, going into stance LP off this move is a gapless blockstring, and stance LK is a solid frame trap.

Only the 2nd hit is special cancelable (on any active frame). Can be used as an anti-air, but the dead zone between the 2 hits can make it hard to time properly. The first hit will juggle into the second hit, so the opponent won't fall out in the middle of the move.

Chun's 2LK has very rare properties, being 4f startup and special cancelable. It has shorter range than her other lights, but it can still be used as the first or second button in a 3-hit light string to catch the opponent walking backwards. While it is cancelable into Drive Rush, it does not grant a combo without scoring a Counter-hit, and on block Chun will trade with mashed 4f buttons.

A great low poke with fairly average range and frame data (almost identical to Ken's) but is exceptional in the fact that the tip of it is slightly disjointed while active. This gives it an edge when playing footsies at max range against characters with similarly ranged 2MKs. As with all low forwards, its cancel window is very short, meaning 4/6MP may be the preferred poke in scenarios where a confirm is needed. If the goal is to safely maintain mid-range spacing while dealing as much Drive damage on block as possible, though, this button is very solid to cancel into Kikoken with, as the pushback will typically leave Chun at a very desirable range for her.

Chun's sweep has noticeably lower range than most sweeps, barely outranging her 2MK—in exchange, it is safer on block and has many active frames. At -7 on block, it isn't typically punishable with another sweep; in turn, its lack of range means it cannot punish other sweeps as well as others. Characters with 2MKs that are above 7 frames may struggle to punish this button on block, leading to a theoretical benefit in some matchups. Another notable aspect of it is that its hitbox hits relatively high up, potentially beating out high profiles. If used as an anti-air late in its active frames, Chun-Li can juggle Tenshokyaku afterward. Since Chun struggles in general to get knockdowns off of stray hits in neutral without meter, a sweep benefits her both defensively and offensively quite a bit, as the knockdown on a Counter will give her enough time to either safely jump out of corner or start pressure.

For guaranteed punish situations, it provides easy, consistent frame advantage to consistently use 5HK as a followup, whereas j.HK would require hitting closer to the ground.

Cancel Hitconfirm Window: 17f

Almost as much range as 2MK with lower recovery, better advantage on block, and a bigger cancel window. An incredible poke and punish tool that can maintains back charge and can be reaction canceled into specials if done right. The long confirm window and lower recovery frames are great for both hit confirming and reacting to Drive Impact. Its high-reaching hitbox is also quite good at jailing people in corner, with the low recovery allowing you to reliably anti-air if they do manage to jump out. Do keep in mind that, despite its low recovery, this move still leaves a large telegraphed hurtbox for an opponent to whiff punish, unlike 2MK—as such, picking between the two can be very nuanced and matchup dependent.

Cancel Hitconfirm Window: 19f (20f stance)

A short-range, disjointed, and cancelable palm strike with many active frames, used as a meaty and to stuff approaches. Very widely applicable in Drive Rush combos, as it's easy to link into to then go into stance moves. With proper meaty timing, Chun can get even stronger followup links and stance cancel combos off this button while making it very plus on block. It isn't quite as good as it was in neutral in past games, but its large disjoint and generous active frames make it quite good at stuffing specific approaches, such as buttons done from Drive Rush or advancing special moves like Honda's Headbutt. Since a Counter Hit goes into stance MK and is a very high damage starter, it's well worth going for if you want to dissuade people from trying to skip neutral without having to blow your entire Drive Gauge for good reward.

6HK is a forward-moving, slow, and unsafe neutral button that can crush lows or punish reversals for absolutely devastating meterless damage on Punish Counter. It's difficult to space it safely since it moves forward and has little pushback, but it's only jab punishable at worst. Good as a read, especially with Drive Rush if the opponent is trying to check it with lows.

Airborne 7-39f; Forced Knockdown state

An unusual command normal that causes Chun to jump up and behind the opponent to attempt to cross them up. It only lands as a cross-up; as a result, it cannot be used in the corner as Chun will whiff harmlessly in front of the opponent. While it is fairly slow and reactable, sometimes it can work as a way to bait throws or go over the ground game to make up for Chun's floaty jump. When used after Drive Rush from long distance, the forward momentum carries her surprisingly far, which might catch some opponents off guard. It's decent as a Drive Rush meaty on many of her knockdowns to attempt to catch an opponent back teching and net a pretty difficult to contest side switch. Its least gimmicky use, though, is in side switch combos after landing a counter Drive Impact, giving a small juggle afterward.

Because 3HK is not considered a "grounded normal", it is not cancelable into Serenity Stream.

Can hit Cross-up
Puts airborne opponents into a limited juggle state
Applies a 15% damage scaling penalty to the next hit when used as a combo starter (100% -> 85% -> 75%...)

Chun-Li's iconic and multi-purpose j.2MK "stomp" defines her unusual air game, pressure, and juggle combos. Although its hitbox is right below Chun, its incredible 3 frame startup (technically the fastest move in the game) and 11 active frames makes it actually quite good for air-to-airing. The stomp has a "cancel window", but any air move can be freely used even after the cancel window ends. When it connects, Chun bounces forward in a way that either lets her chain more jumping normals in a juggle or pressure someone's block.

When very close up to the opponent on the ground, Chun can immediately jump forward and do j.2MK to hit their block, then cross up with a falling j.MK. Since the range you can do this at is basically as much as a throw, the setups involved tend to require Drive Rush, okizeme, or simply baiting a throw. Another potent thing about this setup is that it beats most reversals, as the j.2MK will whiff on an OD Shoryuken and Chun will jump past the opponent safely if all is timed correctly. It is also extremely difficult even for an experienced player to anti-air stomp on block, as its angle is extremely shallow and j.MK or j.236LK can stuff out options very easily—at worst, you may get hit by someone mashing 5LP.

If the opponent is fully cornered and j.2MK connects while Chun is touching the wall, she will bounce away. This is generally a bad position for Chun to be in, as it becomes much easier for the opponent to punish with a reversal uppercut and Chun is too far to push her advantage if they block.
It is possible to connect the move so low to the ground that Air Lightning Kicks is actually below its minimum height restriction, causing the cancel to result in a whiffed j.LK. To prevent this, simply delay Lightning Kicks slightly.

The followup chains from j.2MK are primarily used in air juggles, like after a jump canceled Lv.2 Super.

If the stomp connects deep on a fully cornered opponent, Chun will bounce away from the wall but will continue to face toward the opponent.

Cancels into Serenity Stream:

All ground normals are cancelable into Serenity Stream
Heavy normals canceled into Serenity Stream:
- Each normal causes Crouch Stance to have variable startup time (refer to notes on each Heavy normal)
- Have much worse advantage if not immediately followed by a Stance attack (shown in the Cancel Data of each Heavy normal)

Serenity Stream is a stationary crouching stance with 6 different attack followups. While Chun-Li sacrifices her mobility and makes herself vulnerable during startup/recovery, she gains unique cancels from ground normals and the ability to cancel into Kikoken and Spinning Bird Kick without charge. The exact combo routes are listed under each followup attack, and the cancel frame advantage is listed under each ground normal.

Since the stance initially maintains itself for 57 frames regardless of your direction, it is possible to block high during that window. After that, however, letting go of a crouch direction to attempt a stand block will end the stance and leave you vulnerable, making it impossible to block high attacks.

Manually canceling the SS early is a good way to keep Chun-Li safe if there is no opening to attack the opponent. For example, Chun can use SS to duck under a long range fireball, then SS Exit to avoid whiffing a followup attack. Chun does not get enough frame advantage to use Normal xx SS~Exit as a pressure tool. Because Chun cannot block during SS recovery, it is impossible to block overheads if she is holding down to extend her stance duration.

The LP followup is a relatively fast but extremely short range jab. The main use of this move is for blockstrings and frame traps, as most of the time your hits will push the opponent too far for this to even connect in combos.

Very unsafe if Chun exits the stance afterward, so it is highly recommended to stay crouching or cancel into a special move.

Including SS startup, the fastest possible Orchid Palm is 19f total. In cancels, it combos from 5MK/5HK/2HP/2MK, close range 5HP, point blank 2MP/6MP/4HP vs. crouching, Counter-hit 5MP, and Punish Counter 3HP/6HK.

Chun's MP followup is a forward-moving slide that is especially strong against fireballs. While in SS, opponents simply cannot zone with traditional projectiles unless they are well over 1/2 screen away. It's quite unsafe on block if not well spaced (and always unsafe if you exit SS), so it shouldn't be used too predictably as an approach tool. At max distance, it can be up to -4 on block with a lot of pushback, but Chun has to remain in SS which is not an ideal situation.

The HP followup hits twice, with the first hit being an overhead. It is safe on block and special cancelable, making it quite strong; however, the startup is a bit telegraphed due to the SS startup animation. Canceling into this will always leave a large interruptible gap in the blockstring. Still, it's possible to hide the startup by moving in an unpredictable manner beforehand.

Chun's LK followup is fairly fast and has a bit of forward movement, giving it more range than it initially appears. The startup is a bit slow for this type of attack and the cancel window is too short for easy hitconfirms, so it's not especially strong in neutral. It is, however, very useful for combos off of 4HP, or off of Punish Counters like 2MK and 4MP. Going into MK Spinning Bird Kick on hit is very good damage and works at any range.

Very unsafe if Chun exits the stance afterward, so it is highly recommended to stay crouching or cancel into a special move.

Including SS startup, the fastest possible Forward Strike is 22f total. In cancels, it combos from 5MK/5HK/2HP/4HP, Counter-hit 5HP/2MP, and Punish Counter 2MK/6MP/6HK.

MK followup has good range and forward movement, making it one of Chun's most useful stance buttons in neutral. Since it's somewhat slower than the LP and LK followups, however, doing it off of a Drive Rush normal tends to be required to make decent frame traps or combos with it. If you crouch under a fireball with the stance in neutral, this is a great punish starter—just make sure you wait until the fireball has moved past you, or else you will lose the low profile and get hit.

Very unsafe if Chun exits the stance afterward (and fairly unsafe even if she stays crouching), so it is highly recommended to cancel into a safe special move.

Including SS startup, the fastest possible Senpu Kick is 24f total. In cancels, it combos from 5HK, Counter-hit 5MK/2HP/4HP, and Punish Counter 5HP/2MP/6HK.

The HK followup is essential for Chun's damaging "launcher" combos. She can jump cancel the launch and perform various juggle routes involving her j.MP, j.2MK Stomps, Air Lightning Kicks, or Air Lv.1 Super. It can also be used as a decent and rewarding anti-air if Chun is already committed to entering the stance in neutral. A bit like LP (though less severe), its short hitbox makes it inconsistent at range, often requiring Drive Rush for it to connect in combos consistently.

Cannot special cancel, nor cancel prejump frames into a grounded special move.

Including SS startup, the fastest possible Tenku Kick is 22f total. In cancels, it combos from 5MK/5HK/2HP/4HP, Counter-hit 5HP/2MP, and Punish Counter 2MK/6MP/6HK.

Counter-hit/Punish Counter Advantage applies to both hits

Kikoken is a versatile charge projectile that varies wildly with each version and dissipates after a set distance. The lighter versions have more startup, slower travel speed, and take longer to dissipate, making them better as a "wall" in neutral to control space and approach safely. Heavier versions are faster and have less recovery (with HP Kikoken nearly rivalling the frame data of Sonic Boom) but travel less distance, making them more like extended pokes and punish tools. The heavier versions are typically better in combos/pressure unless you're spaced far away enough for the lighter versions to hit their block with a delay. Buttons like 2MK and 4MP into slow fireballs can create a frame trap with different gaps depending on which strength is used. If the opponent doesn't interrupt it properly, it can potentially lead to counter-hit combos.

OD Kikoken has fast startup and travel speed, low recovery, higher projectile priority, and can even link into followups at some specific ranges. If it manages to beat a normal fireball and net you a punish, you can Drive Rush in with 2MK > Stance LK > MK Spinning Bird Kick for an easy confirm with lots of corner carry.

Lightning Kicks (or Legs) is a quick multi-hitting attack primarily used as a chargeless confirm tool, Super-cancelable combo filler, or Burnout pressure.

The LK and MK versions are unsafe on block and do not knock down on hit, making them a relatively weak buffer option. If done from very close range, Chun will be close enough on hit to push a strike/throw mixup at +3. The speed of these versions may allow you to occasionally get away with them on block if you space them, but this is quite risky. If canceling from 5LP, 2LP, or 2LK, you must use LK Legs; 5LK and medium pokes can combo into MK Legs for a bit more damage.

HK Legs are safe block (-2) and knock down on hit, but the slow speed restricts Chun's combo and blockstring options. It combos naturally from 4HP, 2HP, or 5MK; it gains more cancel routes when starting with a medium Punish Counter or Drive Rush button. The knockdown gives enough time to juggle 22K in the corner, or SA1/SA3 anywhere on the screen for big damage. It's important to use this juggle into SA3 rather than canceling into it, since the cancel adds 10% damage scaling and loses a hit of the attack. HK Legs becomes +2 against opponents in Burnout, though Chun is left too far away for a strike/throw mixup. The only true blockstring into HK Legs during burnout is from 2HP, which itself is a bit slow to land during pressure. Other good options include 4HP and Stance HP, but these leave a small gap that can be interrupted with a Super on reaction.

OD Lightning Legs has some the best properties of each version: speed, damage, safety on block, a later Super cancel, better range, and high juggle potential. It makes a great low-risk buffer option in neutral if you don't want to spend 3 bars on a Drive Rush cancel; if the opponent is in Burnout, Chun gets some decent chip damage and a +2 mixup on block. Because of its range and speed, OD Legs can be used reliably in some punish scenarios, allowing enough time to link 2MK into Spinning Bird Kick. This is useful when Chun's other long range punish tools are too slow to connect, like after a max range sweep. It also does more damage than a cancel like 2MK > OD Legs, so it can be worth going for even when in range of other routes.

The Lightning Kick Barrage followup to OD Legs is a great way to tack on extra damage and a knockdown, as it costs no additional Drive gauge and is easily confirmed into; just be sure not to accidentally input it on block, as it's extremely unsafe. If you want to cash out for more damage, you can skip the followup and cancel into SA2/SA3, or use the aforementioned followups to a Counter-hit/Punish Counter OD Legs starter.

6 hits; during Forward/Neutral jump; Forced Knockdown state until landing; no minimum height requirement

Air Legs are used both as a neutral tool to alter Chun-Li's jump trajectory and to end air juggles without Super meter. The LK version in particular is the most useful in neutral, as using a Tiger Knee (TK) input turns it into a short hop that can approach while hopping over pokes. The forward movement can also cause anti-air DPs to whiff underneath Chun-Li, taking advantage of the fact that DPs are hard-coded not to hit at cross-up range.

Though LK Air Legs fairly safe on block, it whiffs on crouchers regardless of height, which necessitates using it more cautiously than a standard divekick. If both hits connect on Punish Counter, it can link into 4-frame lights for a combo; this makes it an excellent defensive options against corner throw loops, or after dashing forward to bait the opponent's throw tech. If the opponent is throwing lots of fireballs while you're in Burnout and you don't have time to enter your stance, TK Air Legs can help you dodge the fireball and gain some ground, making up for Chun's relatively floaty jump arc.

LK Air Legs is safest on block when it hits deep, like after instant j.2MK, but can otherwise be slightly unsafe on block. It has worse frame advantage if it connects high against tall characters like Zangief, Marisa, or JP. HK Air Legs is only used as an air combo ender, as it can barely connect with grounded opponents at all. OD Air Legs is likewise a juggle ender, though not a particularly efficient use of Drive meter.

On all versions, the final 5f of landing recovery leaves Chun-Li in a crouching state, which can affect punish options.

Puts grounded opponents into limited juggle state
- Airborne opponents are not juggled high enough for followups

Spinning Bird Kick (SBK) is not a reversal in this game, but it is a high-damage combo-oriented move with good corner carry and short charge time. Light normals combo into LK SBK, medium normals combo into MK/OD SBK, and heavy normals (+5MK) combo into HK SBK; Punish Counter normals allow combos into a higher strength version (except from 2LK). Chun's hitconfirms generally give her enough time to naturally build charge, such as 5MP, 2MP or the 2-hit 2HP. OD SBK is a valuable and damaging midscreen launcher on grounded opponents, juggling into HK Tenshokyaku, Super, or some advanced Drive Rush routes. She can also juggle LK Legs before linking Lv.1 or Lv.3 Super to slightly increase her damage output.

Due to LK SBK being only 9 frames and reaching fairly far, it can occasionally be used as a tool to punish moves like sweeps from farther ranges (though throwing it out in neutral is definitely not advised).

A lunging split kick with good range, anti-fireball and low crush properties; Hazanshu is what Chun typically uses to beat fireballs and approach in neutral, making up for her floaty jump. It is a bit of a mixed bag compared to a traditional jump-in since it tends be easier to stuff and doesn't give nearly as much advantage, but its speed lets it be used on reaction in some cases. It hits overhead, but the faster versions are punishable while still being fairly telegraphed, making it impractical as a mixup tool. On the plus side, Drive Impact is not a reliable reaction counter to the L/M versions unless done very early, and Chun can cancel the hit into Level 3 Super even if absorbed. The range of the kick also allows this move to be spaced quite safely in neutral, making it safer to throw out than something like Cammy's Spin Knuckle. OD Hazanshu is almost as fast as the LK version and gives a free juggle ground bounce that can combo into most of Chun's special moves, but is unsafe.

MK and HK Hazanshu are safe if blocked, have good horizontal range and give solid reward on Punish Counter, making them surprisingly solid neutral tools if not overused. The HK version can naturally link to 2MP on hit, while the MK version only nets a combo on Counter or Punish Counter (if used to beat a fireball, it will typically be a Punish Counter anyway). MK is generally the most well-rounded version to throw out in neutral, as it's not as slow as HK but is still safe on block and can be easily spaced in the mid-range to avoid being minus in strike/throw distance. It's also quite safe to DI, so the main way to deal with it is to stuff it with a button or Perfect Parry. The threat of simply throwing Hazanshu out to predict fireballs can make opponents hesitate, instead focusing on blocking or hitting Hazanshu out of startup; this allows Chun to go back to her excellent footsies game to further control neutral. Overall, it's a safer option than most anti-fireball tools, with most slides being hard to space safely and Cammy's Spin Knuckle putting her point blank to be stuffed easier—Chun also has a fireball herself, meaning the layers she can add with both in mind are vast.

Tensho Kicks is one of Chun-Li's juggle enders and anti-airs. The OD version is her reversal, with low horizontal but high vertical range, beating neutral jumps pretty consistently. While it is still one of Chun's most reliable anti-airs, this move is unusually precise and unforgiving to hit with at times due to the small hitboxes and extremely short active frames.

To make things even more unforgiving, the move being inputted with 22 comes with some major consequences. It may seem like a benefit at first and some players may be more comfortable with it, but it inevitably forces Chun to stand when performing the input, as you actually need something more like "5252" for the input to register. This is unlike the Shoryuken input, which can be done with extremely forgiving shortcuts that keep you crouching (like 323 or 232). Thus, Chun becomes more susceptible to jump-ins since she cannot remain crouching during the entire input. 22 is rather strict in general, as you must input straight down (not 1 or 3) twice, making it harder to blend into your movement while walking or blocking. The main upside to the input is that it is agnostic toward which side you're on, letting you easily deal with cross-ups with proper timing, similar to a Flash Kick. In that context, the LK version's low startup tends to be the most consistent.

The first down input cannot be held longer than 10 frames, and the maximum gap between down inputs is also 10 frames.

A multi-hit, stationary projectile super. It can be used to tack on extra damage in juggles, punish moves like sweeps from a distance, or as a typical reversal. The air version can be used after j.MP, j.2MK stomps, or Lv.2 Super jump cancel. Its large hitbox and whopping 70 active frames make it good at stuffing opponents that try to punish it too early, and it may catch neutral jumps if the opponent lacks a deep hitting jump-in.

Chun lunges forward and unleashes multiple series of kicks. Reminiscent of Chun's SA2 from Third Strike, but nowhere near as fast. The last kick is jump cancelable on hit, launching the opponent into a free juggle state (or a limited juggle state if the Super connects on an airborne opponent). If blocked, there is an 8f gap before the final hit (4f in Burnout), which may become relevant if attempting a chip KO. The damage of this Super is only a bit more than a Lv.1, but the followup juggles and reset opportunities make it very worthwhile. The invincibility and forward movement make it a useful anti-projectile tool, but it doesn't have nearly as much range as some other supers with this function.

A series of three hits that leads straight to a cinematic if the first one connects. Can be canceled into from the 2nd hit of Lightning Legs (5th hit for OD version) or from Kikoken/Hazanshu. If the first hit whiffs, the next 2 hits only do 500*500 damage, with no difference between Lv.3 and Critical Art. On block, all 3 hits play out for a true blockstring, which can be useful for chipping out a burned out opponent. Can also work as an anti-fireball Super if the first hit connects before the invincibility runs out, but is overall less effective than Lv.2 Super for this purpose.
