multiple options:
Dash under them
Cr. Mp to slide under them
J. Lk has a nice vertical hit box for people neutral jumping
B+HK usually wrecks player who jab, jab, cross up, jab, jab repeat
You can jump back and hit throw or J. Lp
EX SBK if you want to use meter

@Shottanuhmis

If you have the ability to upload a few replays then please do so, other wise consider this:

If you find yourself chasing opponents down and losing because of it. Simply play more relaxed, patient and methodical.
Stop chasing them. It’s one thing to slowly walk and a block - by that I mean take a step or two if they jump back or dash back but then hold downback in case they throw something out. Take small steps and eventually because you’re chasing them they are obviously retreating.
They’ll eventually be out of space and in the corner.

Don’t forget about throwing your own Kikoukens to help with walking the opponent down, but be ready with St. Lk or B+Hk for jump ins.
If you’re feeling good with Air-to-Air attacks Neutral jump HK and jump. HP will sit them back down easily enough.
Now once they are cornered here are there options:

Reversal you, HK tatsu away, Jump out, Jump out Tatsu
Your best option is to stay outside their attack ranges and whiff punish because if you’re fighting someone who’s primary tactic is to run away. It means they are uncomfortable with footsies so if you get right on top of them you’ll eat see Dps and Critical arts flying everywhere.
Basically just standing near them makes them panic.
they may even start to Neutral jump sporadically, thankfully Chun Li’s St. Lk reaches far enough for this and St. Hk will also be great for this.
St. Hk will also net you a Crush Counter should they hit a button, which will allow you to do Critical art or LLegs, even activate Vtrigger if you have it available.
Also remember each round is 99 seconds, if you have a life lead and they want to run away; then just throw fireballs at them maybe even whiff Lk LLegs or do Air Legs to build a bit of meter. Sure they’ll likely throw fireballs back but Chun has several safe ways around it. So basically around the 10 second mark they’ll go HAM and that brings them to you in a panic.
That’s when you either avoid them and let the clock run out or punish them
After KO wait for Disconnect.

On a side note, you guys are way too obsessed with IALL.
Use it sparingly as it can be good, but it is NOT as good as people on here act like it is.
For example when I’m using Ken, Cr. Hp smacks her right out the air and Chun’s has a few options to deal with it herself in the mirror match.
Everything comes down to risk/reward and the more people see this tactic used by Chun players the less her opponents are going to give a crap.
Heck I’ve already seen Momochi reaction DP in to CA against Nuki’s Chun

uh, am I crazy or did they nerf chun-li?

I seem to remember using 4.hp to stuff fireballs but now it only works in v-trigger?

Carbs2k · 2016-04-03T07:22:39.000Z

they got rid of that in one of the betas

Oyichun · 2016-04-03T22:22:19.000Z

Doing Headstomps from df/3 besides down was removed after Beta2. Although the Prima guide still lists the input as D or DF+ MK…

Anyone know why Capcom removed DF input?

Probably because it would have made instant overhead stomp trivial to execute.

Zoko_Loco · 2016-05-24T12:21:16.000Z

can someone elaborate when i can combo sweep after CC b.hp and when not?
i dont get it.

gillianseed · 2016-05-24T15:42:09.000Z

you simply have to be fast and reactive, it’s not htat hard

Carbs2k · 2016-05-25T02:50:07.000Z

If you’re having trouble I would just cancel RH.legs

Kebby · 2016-05-26T04:35:38.000Z

nvm

Jiraiya-Sama2390 · 2016-06-10T02:24:43.000Z

Does anyone have or know where I can find the frame adv/disadvantage of cancelling normals and specials into V-Trigger?

Like which normals are plus or minus when you cancel into V-Trigger

St.lp +5 hit/+2 guard
St.mp +8/+5
St.hp +7/+4
St.lk +1/-3
St.mk +7/+3
St.hk +6/+3
Crouching:
Lp +3/+0
Mp +6/+0
Hp +12/+9
Lk +1/-1
Mk +8/+6
Hk down/+5

That’s all according to the paper guidebook.

Assume more hit advantage on CH.

Doesn’t say the difference in advantage on all the sweep possibilities (CC, CC V cancel, regular hit v cancel)

NagaSiren · 2016-06-25T06:39:10.000Z

Does anyone have any tips for cancelling standing normals into SBK enders? I find that I can do the cancels by themselves sometimes, but have difficulty doing so out of a combo. Here’s the two combos I’m looking at:

cr. LP, st. MP xx (LK/MK) SBK
cr. LP, (st. LP/st.LK) xx LK SBK

As soon as you press st.mp, INSTANTLY go up + MK (try to do the st.mp as late as possible, but where it still combo’s). Don’t try to confirm the st.mp visually just instantly cancel to up+mk. There really is no secret trick to it. Just practice.

NagaSiren · 2016-06-28T13:54:35.000Z

Thanks! Somehow that managed to get everything to click for me. I still have trouble ending combos with st. LK xx LK SBK (no problem with st. LP xx LK SBK), but I can live with that.

Also, interestingly enough it also optimizes damage on this situational combo:
V-Trigger (point-blank) cr. MK, cr. LK, cr. LP, cr. MK xx MK SBK: 244/409
V-Trigger (point-blank) cr. MK, cr. LP, st. MP xx MK SBK: 251/383

Chun-Li_Forever · 2016-08-01T23:58:41.000Z

I know Chun-Li’s st.lk is one of her go-to anti-airs. But what do you folks recommend to do after? Cause the one move I do is after I use her st.lk to anti-air, right as the opponent lands, I rush in and throw. But I’m looking for other follow ups to mix things up a bit so it’s not so unpredictable, and looking for possibly more damage output options than just throwing after anti-airing.

Dasblackman · 2016-08-02T05:15:01.000Z

You can forward dash for a left-right mixup, forward dash into IALL as well

Dash and crLP stMP crMK L SBK, IA LL, crLK, throw, nothing to bait
