Rising Thunder/Chel

Overview

Chel is the shoto of Rising Thunder, equipped with various versions of the traditional fireball, uppercut, multihit special move triad. Her fireball cooldown resets when it collides with anything, effectively emulating the "fireball rule" seen in other games.

She has good walk speed and strong up close framedata with her clM and 2L, with 6H acting as the perfect normal to steal back frame advantage.

Her fH can control space above an in front of her, an invaluable tool to stop characters with strong jumping options.

Playstyle

Chel is a simple to pick up character that is centred around her fireball.
Pros	Cons
Easy to use. Strongest fireball game. Amazing antiairs without needing cooldowns. Cancellable sweep. Easy + frames with forward heavy.	Weak damage. Optimized combos require difficult links. All far normals whiff crouchers.

string meaty and pressure tool due to it being very fast, advantageous, and hitting crouchers. Can do a 2m link after for an optimal frametrap that also combos, although the timing for the combo is strict.

would be a great poke to stuff approaches if it distance whiff on crouchers. Still, it's a decent anti air for space jump ins and a good options when you expect a dash in or standing button. Advances forward so the range I'd deceptively bigger then it seems

Your best anti air normal, with a long range and great priority you'll use this when dp is on cooldown or when it would whiff due to distance. Not useful otherwise

30	Low	50	Spc/OD/KA	6	2	8	16	5	3	-
decent normal yo start your pressure with, as it frametraps into plenty, including cl.m, as well as being very bad go backdash on. cancelable into Light attacks

65	Low	100	Spc/OD/KA	7	3	15	25	1	-2	-
a useful normal as it's a low longer then 2l but faster then 2h. It special cancels so it can lead to good reward, and is usually seen as the last frametrap attempt in strings to end turns with, canceling into fireball.
