Overview

Chipp Zanuff is the ultimate speed demon. He has phenomenal running speed and good air mobility thanks to his triple jump. His special moves provide strong movement and pressure to keep his opponent guessing. He even possesses the unique ability to run up walls.

Chipp has many fast attacks and strong pressure tools. f.S is fast, has good range, and safe special cancels. 5K can gatling into itself for strong stagger pressure, and 6K is a safe overhead. j.2K is a divekick that has great synergy with Chipp’s triple jump. Resshou is a rekkaA series of special attacks that are only available after the first one is performed. that can lead to highly delayable follow-ups, forcing a scary guessing game on his opponent. Safe tools like these can condition opponents to block, opening them up for riskier mix-ups. Some choices are Genrou Zan, a long-ranged command grab, and Alpha Blade, a grounded cross-upAttacking your opponent after changing which horizontal side you are on, usually by jumping over them.. After scoring a knockdown, Chipp gets powerful Okizeme in the form of safe jumps, cross-ups and high/low mix-ups. Rotating through these options gives Chipp an unparalleled offense.

On the flip side, Chipp’s defense value is the weakest in the game. Mistakes are so detrimental that trading hits back and forth is not an option. He is provided some potent defensive options in his quick 5P, 2K, and his DPDragon Punch A move that has invulnerability during its startup, long recovery, and a rising motion., but durability is still no strength of his. Chipp has the mobility and tools needed to out-maneuver his opponent and avoid unnecessary risks.

If you want to overwhelm opponents with unrivaled speed and plethora of relentless pressure tools, then look no further than Chipp Zanuff.

Excellent all-around move that leads into strong stagger pressure.

Very fast 5K with decent range, while also being jump and dash cancellable. It is slower than his 5P but can't be crouched making it easier to use. It also has better range than 2K, making it useful as a punish. Good for pressure as it chains into itself and has multiple overhead/low gatling options.

Dash cancelling 5K is somewhat situational since Chipp can easily run back in after the move recovers instead.

Chipp's strongest poking and whiff punish tool

Chipp's f.S is extremely fast, has excellent range, and combos easily into Resshou from range or 5H/2H up close. This move shines when combined with Chipp's dash, enabling near full-screen punishes. Whiffing f.S can be dangerous though, since it extends Chipp's hurtbox quite far and has a longer recovery than some other f.S buttons. It is also notably weak to low pokes and low profile moves, whiffing over them.

Chipp's main counter-poking tool and only disjointed button (other than 6P)

Less range and slightly slower than f.S but safer. Unfortunately, it has large knockback, which can make it difficult to convert into damage or use in extended combos. 5H > 236S is a good poke to use against opponents with greater range than Chipp. 5H causes a long tumbling animation on air-hit which enables high damage corner combos and setups.

Uncharged Dust

Universal overhead attack. Chipp summons Dodomezaki the sea otter in front of him for his dust attack. The otter is NOT disjointed from Chipp. Can be used as a gatling from 5K/2K/c.S for a mixup and RC'd for further combo extensions.

Chipp's 5D shares many of its most important properties with his other overhead (6K) but with significantly more risk. Although it has unique strengths, it can be hard to justify 5D's use over 6K as a mixup option.

Charged Dust

A slower and more reactable version of Chipp's universal overhead attack with huge reward on-hit. When use mid-combo it will launch the opponent high in the air making it possible to burst bait. 5[D] also finds use in some of Chipp's optimal combo routes.

5[D] granting a meterless combo on-hit makes it a risky but useful alternative to 6K for mixups.

Data in [] represents values when fully charged.
Charged dust leads to soft knockdown (+36).
Holding up during the hitstop frames of charged dust will activate homing jump:
- Doing a homing jump will cause an area shift and put the opponent into a unique high damaging air combo state.
- Pressing any attack twice without jump/dash cancel will activate the homing jump finisher causing a hard knockdown (+23).
- Homing jump combos can sometimes increase meter balance enough to activate positive bonus.

Chipp's 2P may be slower than his 5P, but it does not whiff on crouchers making it much easier to use in pressure. It also hits high enough to stuff attacks that might go over his 2K, making it useful for pressure and defense in some match ups. 2P also finds use in Chipp's tick throwA throw done after attacks, very soon after if not exactly when throw invulnerability expires on the opponent.

Chipp's primary low option for opening up the opponent.

A fast but stubby low which plays a key role in Chipp's neutral/pressure game. This move is extremely threatening when combined with Chipp's dash speed, enabling whiff punishes from surprisingly far. On successful hit, Chipp can gatling into his 2D for okizeme or link into c.S for a full combo on counterhit.

2K's low attack level and low recovery makes it very useful for tick throws or pressure resets. It is also an extremely strong conversion tool, especially when the opponent is close to the ground.

2S is useful against low-hitting moves that might otherwise cause f.S to whiff. 2S also has a unique whiff cancelThe ability to cancel into another move on-whiff into 2H, making it extremely scary to challenge and excellent for catching backdash. As a combo tool, 2S will pop-up an airborne opponent making is useful for juggles/pickups. Despite its role as a juggle tool, it suffers from a short hitbox can which cause it to whiff in unexpected places.

Extremely useful in neutral/pressure as a whiff-cancel from 2S, especially to catch backdash. Used in nearly all of Chipp's BnB combos to launch the opponent. In the corner counter hits can be confirmed into meterless Wall Run Combos for some of Chipp's best damage. Since 2H is slow and not disjointed it can be quite risky to use as an anti-air option, but it can be useful for calling out certain moves.

Fast, long range sweep option that can low profile some attacks when spaced.

Useful for poking in neutral and counter-poking against moves that would cause f.S to whiff. However, 2D will often lose without proper spacing, due to the tall hurtbox near Chipp's body. 2D's hard knockdown makes it very rewarding on-hit, letting Chipp apply okizeme.

Chipp's main overhead.

Chipp's grounded overhead option that is extremely fast, and cancellable from most of his normals. Chipp is airborne (and thus cannot be thrown) for the entire attack except the landing recovery. It can be used to harass an opponent mid blockstring, to close out a round, or as a niche frame trap.

6K normally gives low reward, but Chipp can link 2K or 5P for a combo when it is timed meatyHitting an opponent to cover the moment as they lose invincibility. The most common one is performing an attack early on okizeme to gain frame advantage and bait reversals.. On air-hit it will wall-bounce the opponent, allowing it to act as combo filler and catch jump-outs. 6K becomes extremely threatening with meter, enabling full combos and tricky setups.

Most useful as a frame trap and punish tool due to its long startup, but 6H can also be used as a counter-poke for some extended normals. This button has a decent vertical hitbox which can be used to catch jump out attempts from surprisingly far.

On normal-hit 6H forces the opponent to crouch, but it will cause a ground bounce on air-hit. Causes a big ground bounce on air/ground counter-hit leading to some of Chipp's flashiest and most damaging combos.

Chipp's primary jump-in move.

Chipp performs a back flip while swinging his blade. j.H is extremely active, hitting behind, below, and finally in front of Chipp. The movement of the active hitbox can create ambiguous cross-ups where Chipp appears to hit his opponent from the "wrong" side.

When connected high enough, Chipp can follow up with a gatling/special cancel or if he hits deep enough string into 2K/c.S/2S. Has a "sour spot" height where Chipp can't easily cancel, and can be thrown after landing if he tries to string into a button. Despite this, j.H can be scary to challenge due to the multiple hits and gatling options.

In combos it will always knock down the opponent at an angle giving Chipp more advantage the lower it is used. j.D is exceptionally strong for securing wall splats due to its launch angle and high wall damage.

j.D can lead to some unfavorable RPSRock Paper ScissorsA situation wherein an attacker and a defender have options that only beat certain responses from their opponent. For example, on wakeup a defending opponent may use a reversal to stop an attacker from using an attack, but the attacker can also block to defeat the reversal. If the attacker blocks, the defender can use the opportunity to take the offensive. situations if blocked higher up so this move should not be used recklessly. Combos into 2K at lower heights but can also combo c.S/2S on counterhit or if it hits very deep.

Jump and air-dash cancellable.
Can be up to +10 on block at lowest possible height

Alpha Blade Horizontal

Also known as "P Alpha" by the community.

Grounded cross-up and movement tool.

Chipp vanishes before appearing on the ground a fixed distance away. This move can be used for a quick cross-up or for combos, particularly with meter. On-hit Alpha Blade Horizontal will cause a soft knock down giving Chipp variable advantage depending on spacing. When spaced or used in the corner, Chipp may have enough advantage to link 5P. A max range OTGThe act of hitting the opponent when they are knocked down. Short for "off the ground" or "on the ground." will leave Chipp extremely plus. Since this move repositions Chipp quickly it can be used to safely bait some reversals.

Alpha Blade Diagonal

Also known as "K Alpha" by the community.

Grounded cross-up, combo, and movement tool.

Chipp vanishes before appearing in the air a fixed distance away, with air options available. This move can be used for a quick cross up or for extensions into air combos (often from 2H). Chipp is left in the air with his air options available to him making it very useful for combos, movement, and setups. Since this move repositions Chipp quickly it can be used to safely bait reversals in most situations.

If used near the corner, Chipp will automatically perform a second hit by bouncing off the wall to keep his opponent cornered. Chipp is left with air options available for combos or pressure. There is a "sour spot" distance near the corner where the second hit will not activate causing Chipp to corner himself.

Chipp can also cancel the move into a wall run by holding (6) or K during the animation leaving him high up on the wall.

Cannot be Red Roman Cancelled.

Air Alpha Blade Diagonal

Aerial cross-up and movement tool.

Chipp vanishes before appearing again on the ground. This move can be used for cross ups after a jump-in or catch an opponent off guard from the air. This move cannot hit same-side and has a long recovery so it must be positioned carefully to avoid whiffing. On successful hit Chipp will recover in time to extend the combo with a move like c.S.

If used near the corner, Chipp will automatically perform a second hit by bouncing off the wall to keep his opponent cornered. The corner version has the unfortunate habit of whiffing one or both hits so Chipp should route his combos carefully to avoid drops.

Chipp cannot cancel this move into a wall run like the grounded version but he can hold (6) to only perform a single hit and steal the corner (holding K will not work).

Chipp's only invincible reversal

A fast and active rising slash that hits twice. The first hit is very close range and will have trouble connecting with opponents who are further out. The second hit only has upper-body invincibility, which makes it likely to trade against jump-ins. Mainly used as a reversal to escape an opponents pressure but can also be used as a committal anti-air option or a combo tool.

In combos the awkward gap in between each hit can cause opponents to drop out when it is used as an ender. As a starter, combining Beta Blade with RC can lead to some useful setups/mix but the initial proration hurts Chipp's already low damage making it a situational use of meter. TKAn input method to perform a special move in the air as fast as possible after you leave the ground. Short for "Tiger Knee". For Example: 2369 for a j.236 input. Beta Blade can act as an optimal but impractical combo filler when connected at a sweet-spot height for meterless follow ups.

If this whiffs, Chipp may die. If it is blocked on the ground, Chipp may die. Having meter for Roman Cancel can help make it safe.

Powerful pressure reset and oki option.

Chipp sends a clone forward that will attack the opponent leaving Chipp plus. Good for pressure resets and oki, but makes weak combo starter/filler due to forced proration, high wall damage, and the awkward launch. Cannot be converted midscreen without meter but can give a small meterless combo in the corner.

Damage dealt to the clone is also dealt to Chipp making this a strong but risky pressure reset tool. Chipp and the projectile can be struck at the same time leading to DOUBLE damage.

Safe pressure tool and important combo tool.

Start of Chipp's rekkaA series of special attacks that are only available after the first one is performed. with follow ups available on hit, block, and whiff. The large cancel window and threat of delayed follow ups make this move very scary to challenge despite being minus. The high RISC gain make it equally scary if Chipp resets his pressure. Resshou is also an important combo tool which causes a wall bounce on airborne opponents. This allows Chipp to extend combos without cornering himself.

Chipp can confirm his entire rekka sequence on crouching hit for most characters, and combo into 2S/Senshuu on counter hit.

Flip kick that hits overhead and the end of Chipp's rekkaA series of special attacks that are only available after the first one is performed..

Senshuu makes Chipp airborne and raises his hurtbox, allowing him to defeat some low-pokes. Although it leads to a soft knockdown on-hit, Chipp can confirm for a full combo on counter-hit. It is fairly unsafe on-block and leaves Chipp vulnerable to a punish.

This move is best used against a conditioned opponent unless Chipp has meter to Roman Cancel. There is a small gap (4~5 frames) where the opponent can interrupt with 4 frame jabs, 6P, or use a reversal before the kick hits.

Also known as "Leaf Throw" by the community.

A slow but threatening command grab that can be extremely difficult to punish.

Chipp vanishes and leaps forward to grab his opponent. This move is extremely active and has a raised hurtbox making it great for defeating low-pokes, backdashes, and throws. Chipp is not invincible during the startup, and can be hit out of the animation with a jab (even on opponent's wakeup, due to throw invulnerability.)

Has a long startup making it easy to react to, but the recovery is very short for a command grab. It may be extremely difficult for some opponents to punish a whiffed grab, especially if they jump to avoid it.

Chipp dashes up along the wall, gaining access to special versions of his grounded normals. Chipp can carry his opponent up along the wall with his wall run moves for some of his most damaging combos. Wall Run is primarily used to extend combos after a counterhit 2H or after an up-drift Red RC (88RRC) at the corner.

Wall Run can be cancelled at any point, allowing Chipp to apply pressure/mixups or extend combos. Wall Run cancels are especially strong immediately after Alpha Blade, allowing Chipp to re-position quickly during his offense.

Max damage combo filler and wall break option.

A large slash that hits far behind Chipp's head allowing him to pull the opponent back toward the wall and extend a combo with a bounce or to cause a wall splat. Chipp can use the wall bounce to perform a high damage extension or to end his wall run and use j.236KAir Alpha Blade Diagonal to carry the opponent back to the ground.

This move deals absurdly high damage, especially for combo filler, and finds use in Chipp's optimal routes.

Chipp dashes upwards diagonally and goes back and forth across the screen. If he hits the opponent, they'll be juggled around the air before Chipp slams them back to the ground with a hard knock down. Chipp will land close to the opponent with enough advantage to apply pressure or mix ups. Can be used for combos, to call out slower moves on reaction, or as a full screen whiff punish.

Zansei Rouga has a higher minimum damage than Banki Messai, but the inability to wall break often makes this difference quite small.

Cannot break the wall and does not stage transition
Resets the opponent to mid-screen with a hard knockdown
Can be Purple RC'd at any point for combo extensions.

Chipp's wall break overdrive

Chipp enters a quick animation before dashing across the screen. If the move connects with the opponent, Chipp will summon his clones (and Dodomezaki the sea otter) to pummel his opponent. Primarily used as a combo ender near the corner, but the unorthodox superflash also allows Chipp to punish fireball moves in VERY specific situations.

Banki Messai has the unfortunate tendency to scale extremely poorly so this move should not be relied upon for its damage. However, the ability to wall break makes it very useful for securing okizeme/positive bonus. Can be reliably activated from a kara-cancel making it good for converting stray hits.

Covers about 3/4 of the screen.
Invincible from frame 3 onward, but becomes vulnerable again after the superflash
Launches and hard knockdown on completion, wallbreaks near the corner.
Can be Red Roman Cancelled either during the first few hits or after the last.

Superflash has variable length depending on distance to opponent (35~40f)
Chipp dashes forward during the superflash
Fully invulnerable until the end of the superflash
+50 KDA
Only does 5 hits on block
Horizontal Activation Range: 500
Vertical Activation Range: 350
The attack is performed by multiple entities (i.e. projectiles), the attack therefore does not behave as a single multi-hit attack:
- Hits by each entity will be scaled by previous hits, even if they are seemingly simultaneously.
- Each entity applies R.I.S.C. Loss seperately. All R.I.S.C. Loss after the first hit count for 0, but still apply 25% R.I.S.C. reduction if the R.I.S.C. Level is above 0.
- Raw hit only deals the maximum damage from at least 1333 R.I.S.C. (approx. 10.4% gauge).
