Description[]
- "Perform a roundhouse kick, knock your opponent into the air with a series of attacks, and then smash them with a devastating kick. Useful for tacking on big damage in a combo, or as a quick way to turn the tables."
- —Street Fighter 6
Executed by performing two quarter-circles back and pressing kick, Chun-Li circles her arms, swinging downward, hitting her opponent in the back of the head before snapping a kick to launch them in the air. Chun-Li throws rapid Wing Chun punches to their belly while they're in the air before hitting them with a spinning roundhouse kick to send them flying. Chun-Li crouches into her Serenity Stream stance before jumping up to her opponent. Chun-Li delivers a Hazanshu, slamming her leg into their back and slamming them into the ground for the finish.
The Critical Art version of this Super Art has Chun-Li finishing with a Shichisei Senkuu Kyaku to their stomach, sending them splatting into the camera, sliding off before falling down to the ground.
Tactics[]
- "Time for the finale!"
- —Chun-Li
Since this is Chun-Li Level 3 Super Art, this is her strongest move in her arsenal. Soten Ranka is mainly used to end combos and finish off the opponent. She can cancel Soten Ranka from her normals, unique attacks, or special moves such as Hundred Lightning Kicks. When Chun-Li is down to 25% or less of her health, Soten Ranka gains an additional boost of damage. She is fully invincible during the startup frames of this move. Even if the opponent blocks, it can inflict a good chunk of provisional damage than may result in a chip KO if the opponent is in blocks the move while in burnout with minimal health.
