She can kick ass. She just has to work harder for it than most characters. Even if the odds are stacked against you, Chun has tools to work with.
I’m perfectly fine with Chun being low tier, because someone needs to occupy that space. Every game can’t be 3rd strike :). The main thing is that the current tiers need to be compressed. The distance between Dante and Chun is just astronomical. That being said, I can understand your frustrations. We’ll know a lot more in just a month’s time so we can only speculate for now.
Yeah, she has the GREATEST tools for casual play, but other than that? That’s about it.
I’m not asking for 3S Chun in future fighters (but I wouldn’t mind) however, goddamn… don’t make her shit-tier like Mahvel 2. Although, I still used her like a boss.
If you believe in “Play to Win”, why are you picking the characters you like?
I like Chun Li and I can say she gives me a LOT of wins. Still, I work hard for them. Have you been working hard enough?
As everybody else has mentioned, Chun Li requires effort to use her. If you do like her and if you want to “kick some ass” with her, then you’ll have to overcome the basic stuff line.
But yes, she sucks, and her worst matchups are the top tier guys Wesker, Dante and Magneto. I believe she can work it out against everybody else, even Dormammu.
Im not sure how good your Chun Li is, but what I have seen so far are mashy legs Chun. The only ones I havr witnessed in battles and WILL NOT MASH are ludthinks, Shin-Shon and myself.
If you want to share your matches with her, Im more than glad to help you out.
I’ll be posting some videos of my Chun once I figure out a good recording setup. I’m hoping to have another sparring session with Lud soon. Hopefully I can have things set up by then and he’ll agree to recording. I’ve leveled up my Chun a lot since last time we fought so I’m hoping to give him a run for his money this time.
If anyone else plays Chun on PSN feel free to hit me up.
And yes everyone please stop mashing legs. That needs to be the first bad habit to go.
You bet your fuckin’ ass I have.
I mean, I’ve won A LOT of matches with Chunny and used her over a 1100+ times (she’s ranked 2 in my most used) but if I play against, just like you listed below: Wesker, Dante, or Magneto… then she’s free. I ain’t going to blame them over my defeat for being high-tier, because “cheap” is a harsh word.
I love the woman and I’ve learned A TON of shit for her, 'cept for Infinites.
Dear God, I do NOT think so.
XF3? A strong maybe.
Let’s say this: I’m not that great, but I honestly ignore Hyakuretsukyaku, unless I’m doing the TAC glitch or in X-Factor, Level 3 only.
I don’t have a capture card though… so I guess I’ll have to kick it old-school. lol
It’s been in the OP since Week 1 of the combo thread… I put it there for a reason.
Anyways, yes f.H is the expected OTG at this point unless she has something like a “Toy Touch” move we haven’t found (a d/f + Attack move).
Seth saying she gets a “bunch of solid buffs” is also a welcome addition. Gonna start working on some combos and setups with her this weekend to ease myself back into this game after a long break of work/3S/etc.
BTW, drowsy gives me an idea that we should consider depending on how good the netcode is for UMVC3. When I used to play Juri in Super, the Juri players used to get together and practice online for the mirror and various matchups. Perhaps we can establish a weekly online group/session for this when the time comes.
I hate Chun mirrors because the always person just mashes legs…Which means I usually have to just zone them with Kikoken or walk up and use the Legs super to get through the other Chun who is standing in place kicking. It usually boils down to me having to resort to ridiculously bad tactics in lieu of worrying about out mashing the opponent. It’s just generally a stupid match.
You really should use Hyakuretsu Kyaku.
Its really good, we all know the reason. Just dont mash it! lol
You can also use it to keep your opponent busy paying attention to it while you charge your SBK.
The problem on ultimate: Your opponents will actually be warned when she is chargin. What kind of buff is that!?
The only positive I can figure out for it is if when you get knocked down you could charge it while waking up to deter people from crowding you. “Oh he’s charging up EX SBK, probably shouldn’t get too close.”
This hasn’t been brought up much, but does anyone hope that Chun’s level 3 super gets some huge buffs? If they increased its invincibility, fixed its broken hitbox (broken in the bad sense), and make it air OK, it would help Chun a LOT.
I totally agree with you. Pretty much the only lv3 that whiffs ON HIT.
Also, I’d love to have Shichisei Senkukyak back!
Back in the TVC days, I use to threaten people of a random Lv.3 when I had 3 bars, so it would make people think twice before air dashing.
That’s awesome, man!
Can we make a list of things for you to try out?
Simple stuffs, like, for example, if Tenshou Kyaku’s stun is bigger and such
