Loving it so far. I'm climbing very slowly with Chun Li, but having a great time learning the nuances of her stance and the huge amount of options she has at any moment. I think it's a sign of a great game that I have just as much fun losing a game as winning.
I’ve been really tempted to try out chun-li because she looks so cool with how technical she can be
Give her a try! She's the perfect balance of accessibility and complexity IMO. At a very basic level you can stick to her normals in neutral and combo into lightning kicks for simple combos, with a focus on spacing. Her normals are some of the best in the game, and she has really fast walk speed for baiting. Once you get that down you can add in her charge inputs, including spinning bird kick combos for a bit more damage and better oki, and then you have her stance and crazy combo potential later on. She's not intimidating to learn at all though compared to other technical fighting game characters. Just sprinkle in some more stuff once you feel ready for it.
Awesome! I’ve been trying her out and she takes so much more thinking than my blanka. I’m gonna try to take it slow and add things slowly to get better with her.
