Strategies

Super Art Selection:

Chun-Li's most powerful Super Art is the Houyouku-Sen. It has a healthy stock of two supers, is very damaging, and can be super-cancelled or linked into using many of her attacks:

  • c.MK
  • c.LP
  • b + MP (first hit)
  • b.HP
  • c.HP
  • close HK (must be super-jump cancelled)
  • F + HK (only on crouching opponents)
  • DF + HK
  • Kikouken
  • EX Kikouken

Kara-Throwing:

Chun-Li has two useful kara-throws available to her:

  • MK
  • close HK

A kara-throw is executed by inputting the correct attack (in this case, either MK or close HK) and cancelling the first frame into a throw. For example:

Execute the MK kara-throw by pressing the MK button and immediately pressing LP + LK. You will see Chun-Li move forward as she executes the throw, which will drastically improve the range of your throw and strengthen your game.

Her best kara-throw is her standing MK. It is tied with Q for the farthest reaching kara-throw. Her close HK kara-throw has a few uses against certain characters such as Dudley, whose hitbox can be deceiving, making the s.MK karathrow fail, and having the close MK technique execute instead.
