Mura is a top 3 SF content creator after today. A true King.

[@thelumpiestlump]

Hes been for years imo

[@jms974]

This was unwarrented. They didnt need to hit her this hard.

[@jms974]

Especially considering they buffed luke

[@sharpenmysight5954]

Imo they need to nerf Hizan its extremely annoying

[@alexferrier5732]

RIP Chun's dmg 💀, not gonna have fun with a character that is execution heavy with no big reward, specially when there are characters that are low execution-big reward...

[@nicorobin7762]

she has speed and good buttons. she’s not meant to be a huge damage character

[@user-et3xn2jm1u]

The nerfs to her damage were nerfs to everyone's damage. If the game is more neutral-centric that favors the Neutral Queen.

[@philip1718]

@@nicorobin7762they nerfed her speed tho

[@Jonfgc]

@@philip1718eh only back walk which isn’t really that bad

[@davidcox6454]

Her combos weren’t that hard I don’t get this take

[@nickkiller-0710]

I'm not a huge fan of them nerfing her capability to hit confirm towards mp and some of the damage nerfs kinda hurt considering she's such a technical character. But one thing that we have to take into account is that a lot of buttons got easier to whiff punish which is always a big positive for Chun, if the meta actually ends up getting more defensive this season I think she'll be fine.

[@Forever_Scrub]

"May Lord have mercy on her opponents, because this button is a historic street fighter villain" - well said. SF5 trauma. It should be a god button though so I'm glad it's back.

[@BHS289]

Standing Heavy Punch buffs are so good; I feel like she buffed a way of playing the character I already using

[@hjblacdes61]

At what cost man that heavy kick and OD Kikoken nerf is massive

[@alexferrier5732]

They gutted her dmg tho, that double dmg nerf was unwarranted

[@dylanlerian5960]

@@alexferrier5732 All characters damage has been reduced.

[@alexferrier5732]

@@dylanlerian5960 Not really, only the light starters got universally nerfed. The 20% scaling nerf wasnt applied to everyone. I also main AKI, Cammy, Manon and Juri and they got no scaling nerf on their heavy starters OD moves, those from the ones I know.

[@user-bv3ok2re3s]

The 20% scaling nerf sounds like Capcom trying to convince ChunLi players to use 5hp on neutral. Like, if you have a good 5hk on neutral that reward you more than 5hp on neutral, the buff on 5hp would be meaningless

[@ebby3215]

Sick they nerfed the one character that wasnt braindead.

[@777heartsdesire]

You’re lying to yourself down down for anti air??

[@ebby3215]

@777heartsdesire its literally more difficult than a traditional dp, good try though.

[@iyoukoya8001]

At least you have an anti air, stop complaining.​@@ebby3215

[@xravia79]

​@@777heartsdesire Nice job showing you have no idea what you are talking about. It's way harder trying to anti air with down down versus a regular dp motion.

[@user-bv3ok2re3s]

When you input 22, your character will "stand up" briefly for a moment, and it lead to more prone to getting hit by opponent jump attack. Meanwhile for common dp motion, you can input 323 and your character never "stand up". See the difference? Its not how hard to input, its direct problem of 22 briefly stand up.

[@TechnoTurtle9974]

Was just looking for this. Thank you, Lord Mura

[@sifuseef]

Thank you so much for this! Your videos of the changes are the best around!

[@alphach1mp]

This is a weird one but I use Hazanshu as an anti-air sometimes. The problem is that it sometimes can be stuffed as a follow up even after you hit the opponent first with a cr short, cr medium, cr jab, st bk hp, etc.. I think they need that either the hit box need to start 1 frame earlier before landing or shrink hurtbox before landing, or something of sort...

[@lomelody1297]

This series is gonna help so many competitive players having to learn all the matchups all over again😭 thank you mura 🙏

[@pjdava]

MC MuraFGC, Your videos are fantastic! I just had to subscribe!

[@jheymann69]

Thanks for getting me through my 12 hour shift today bro eating up these videos 😂

[@commonsense9076]

HP going back to it’s glorious days 💪🏽

[@GamingWarrior359]

I’m a master chun-li and I’m a little disappointed they nerfed her so bad this season now she’s probably c tier :(

[@MikeyDLuffy]

Reading the comments on this video a few weeks late is pretty funny

[@Azure888]

With the reduced drive impact recovery and increased recovery for whiffed air legs, I was definitely noticing a difference yesterday. I was doing air legs in neutral (probably not a good idea anymore) and my opponent was doing DI and going under me, so we were both whiffing, but they always were able to throw me before I could do anything, and tech’ing the throw never worked either.

[@JoeyCentral]

I don’t get why she needed nerfs. Like only top 1% of players dominate with her. 99% of us are dropping her combos consistently. Im new to FGs and I main Chun Li and she was already hard to get a win with online in season 1. Do you think there’s hope for me to reach master with chun li now or is that dream gone?

[@MCMuraFGC]

For sure, i think she is still gonna be very good. She does a bit less damage yes but most of the other top tiers like Luke and Deejay also got damage nerfs so it will even out, i think

[@MrSpikeyZ]

As a plat chun player im feeling the nerfs pretty bad. More stuff to study and get better with though. Thanks for the video

[@joelevy3042]

My brother I really feel like there's not much that's really hurting her. At least at my low Plat 3 level anyways. I was so nervous they were gonna destroy her. But they didn't. If anything she goes from top 3 to top 5.

[@austinyun]

Cr.MK and f.MP nerfs are huuuuuge dude Plus the big meter dump corner combo w/ s.HK and OD Kikoken lost a ton of dmg

[@louishubbard2104]

Shes not top 5 anymore bud she got hit hard

[@Corbear41]

I main chunli, and I am disappointed with her season 2 changes not gonna lie. I expected some nerfs to her standing jab recovery and her cr.mk along with her OD projectile and super 2 meter build. I am a little shocked they went much further with the nerfs. The standing heavy kick scaling feels very wrong. You get more dmg now from medium starters and faster normals, which just feels really counterintuitive to how the rest of the game works. She still has high damage combo routes, but they feel very arbitrary instead of a natural progression of light to heavy and fast startup to slow startup. Her st.hk is her slowest normal and the only one that combos into stance mk without counterhit. This nerfs her stun combo dmg heavily. She didn't get any new combos or moves, really, so there is very little to be excited for to offset these nerfs. I don't mind system wide nerfs, but it seems they let Juri/Ken/Guile off the hook, and I never thought Chun-Li was that much better than them in season 1.

[@ItzSadSanchez]

Oh no

[@kccts44]

OH YEAH

[@user-et3xn2jm1u]

Ok I've come full circle. First I thought the nerfs were bullshit, then I thought they were fine, now I think they're bullshit again. Particularly her walk speed (the iconic chun feature) and her st.HK scaling. She'll be fine don't get me wrong. But she didn't need those nerfs. She's a top 10 character instead of a top 5 character, but she's more work than everyone above her.

[@alphach1mp]

She just good at this point. Many will begin dropping her.

[@deelite19]

St.hp buff doesn’t offset the st.hk / ex kikoken nerfs. Too early to tell, and still gonna main her but man, the nerfs are bothering me. Regardless, thanks Mura for these great contents!

[@markusbrendon]

Mura is getting mixed with the "early" mix up

[@lordronn472]

Was she the one who needed to get nerfed though?

[@skychaos87]

Yes, most pros had her in top 3 at the end of season 1. Her backwalk speed is the fastest in the game, even faster than Kimberly with lvl 3 boost. Not to mention she also has one of the fastest forward walk speed. Couple that with a 7f 2mk, she is a whiff punish and neutral god. Her damage is also nonsensically high for a punish counter situation. And her lvl2 gives her the best corner carry in the game, which she can easily acquire and use at least 1-2 times a round. And that 4/6mp of hers that has 5f of hit confirm window is also pretty broken at the highest level. She has always needed nerf, but tbf it might seem a little too much or at least not enough buffs in other areas. But then again, other top tiers like DJ got some massive nerf. She might not be top tier anymore but she will still be high tier for sure.

[@jrg305]

​@@skychaos87great so they make balance changes so the 0.01% playing her aren't gods.

[@alexferrier5732]

​​​@@skychaos87Her corner carry with LV2 is not the best in the game at all other characters like Ken, Kim etc had better corner carry with no meter. And her Big dmg was only in the corner where she could do ex kikoken combos, and somebody whiffs a DP in the corner for a punish counter they deserve to eat big dmg tbh. Also if somebody jumps a lot and you hard read it with HK anti air combo, they deserve to get blown up, getting antiaired with a 14f button is a hard read. Only nerf I agree is the walking speed one and the expanded hurtbox on crMK and stLP. And her buff to stHP and buff to air ex legs are whatever to me, so it was all Ls this patch. But I'm dropping her anyways, dmg nerfs are the nerfs I hate the most and they nerfed what I found fun about her (the kikoken combos and antiair HK combos), there is no reason to do kikoken combos now, dmg is too low. Guess Imma go with my secondary AKI, she actually received some love.

[@skychaos87]

@@alexferrier5732 Yes and no. She has a corner to corner carry with her SA2 but yes without meter characters like Ken has way better corner carry. Her damage is big previously from anywhere not just the corner from a punish counter 5hk, even without 5hk she can still do even bigger damage with DR 4hp xx hazanshu starter. OD kikoken is just a combo extender, depending on how early or late you use it in the corner combo the scaling doesn't actually reduce the damage by much. Not to mention it's a niche corner only situation. It's mainly a nerf against the drive rush follow up. As for her anti air, she still does way more damage than other characters with her 5hk anti air combo. Not to mention she has other easy anti air like 5mk or an invincible one like tensho kicks. She is still properly rewarded for landing a 5hk anti air.

[@user-et3xn2jm1u]

@@skychaos87 But they didn't play her for all that. And chun players were swapping off.

[@jaymaycry9891]

You gotta be kidding me 😭

[@fighterzam6573]

why the fuck they nerfed her, come on. why pros not changed to chun li, easy answer: its not a monkey character (luke, juri) it required skill. yikes capcom.

[@austinyun]

Idk I'm a Chun main and Leshar was making her look downright broken. On the other hand Leshar is like a fucking robot.

[@Tabootrinket]

That 20% damage scaling on HK is really hurting. Some combo routes that required perfect execution are now completely useless. Everything else about the hurtboxes and recovery I agree with but this... basically they're just deleting some of her tools because now they just burn the resources with no rewards. Meanwhile DeeJay received no changes Also they still haven't fixed her DP which would recover slower than the opponent on hit sometimes so yeah... they don't play Chun in the dev team I guess

[@2Namii]

"Dee Jay received no changes" lmao

[@axeladam2435]

Yeah deejay recieved only a 50% damage nerf on all his combo routes that's totally not gonna affect the character (these changes make me very salty lmao)

[@dragonic22]

"Meanwhile DeeJay received no changes" someone hasn't been doing some reading

[@RandomPerson28337]

All the top tiers got nerfed to the ground

[@kccts44]

GOOD

[@TrustyPatches]

You hate to see it. :)

[@pooply3053]

Hey Mura, do you think 4mp is still hitconfirmable or not?

[@divertiti]

No
