Lightan’s 5C is actually two hits! the first hit is when he throws out his leg and the 2nd hit is where his foot returns to the ground (dunno how else to describe). Both hits do around 6k and seems to only work on large characters, like daimao, and only hits when you’re right next to lightan. It’s useless really… you won’t hit anyone with this in any real match. Don’t why this was there, but still neat to find nonetheless. Still, info is info and so I’ll add this tiny itty bitty, insignificant, hard to reach hit box in this thread. :rofl:

You know, I just don’t understand why this character is so jipped in many respects. Otherwise I’d play him.

One thing that really burns me up is the fact his 360 attack is TECHABLE.

  • 3120 (if 1 hits) or 6084 (if both hit)
  • 3360 (if 1 hits) or 6552 (if both hit)
  • 3600 (if 1 hits) or 7020 (if both hit)

It would be good to note that Gold/Silver Chop A comes out the quickest and doesn’t cause any effect. Gold/Silver Chop B causes knockdown, making it the best option to gold crush with it. Gold/Silver Chop C, also causes knockdown but more damage and it’s slower, you can’t gold crush after this because it’s too slow.

With the wiimote, it’s freakin abusable, and it’s only one button. Tech is pretty reasonable since it can grab people out of mid-air.
