Introduction

Chinnen, formerly Thin Nen (陳念) is a recurring character Power Instinct series. He's a parody of the Buddhist monk-type characters. Usually, they are all depicted as good people with little desire; Chinnen is the direct opposite. A violent individual with obscene desires. This religious man studied ancient rituals to gain mystic powers. He will do everything he can to get what he wants, whether it be women, food or money. He’s afraid of nothing and is opportunistic and greedy. In spite of this, he is not an evil person and he will sometimes speak to his opponents in a Zen-like fashion.

Overview

Strengths

Weaknesses

Easy skill ceiling regarding combos and neutral. Can confirm a combo off of almost any normal. 6.B allows for Chinnen to get easy juggle combos. Very versatile toolset that can support strong neutral. cl.D is a very good anti-cross-up due to its massive vertical hitbox. 63214.K is a decent anti-air thanks to its invincibility frames on start-up. Multi-Hit Stress Shot super that can be used as a grounded reversal. Option Select Oki by simply pressing 6.C to get a meaty cl.C or a throw. 41236.AC can be used to get juggle combos on hit. 63214.A/C have armor tics on start-up, allowing them to eat attacks and projectiles. j.63214.C is an instant air fireball with few start-up frames. Instant j.63214.A can control neutral in Chinnen's favor.

Struggles to approach opponents outside of jumping forward and cross-ups. No mix-ups. Forced to rely on cross-ups and throws. Slow 66.P, very difficult to link from a jumping normal. 6.B & 3.B are unsafe on block. 41236.AC has a long start-up. Easy to punish mid-screen. j.63214.A is only one hit and is best done as close to the ground Stress Shot Super keeps the opponent standing, keeping recoverable health. Ippatsu Ougi Super can only be linked into from 66.P, 2.CD or a 41236.AC juggle combo. Ippatsu Ougi is super slow on start-up and moves slowly once active. Kinjite Super can only be done on Rage Explosion and is difficult to combo into.
