Chins Wiki entry.

Console changes:
- (shown in video) Chin can do a close C from his d,d+K stance
- (shown in video) The weak version of his counter now has the attack come out faster than before and can connect into his rolling attack (HCF+K). As a result of this the counterattack almost never whiffs anymore, and there are very few situations in which he can’t follow up.
- (shown in video) He has less lag after his normal throw (both when in his stances as well as normally) and he can actually do followups in the corner.
- Chin’s defense no longer decreases when he has drink stocks
- The active time of his counters has been decreased. The normal version now has the active duration of the arcade’s EX version, and the EX version’s is shorter still.
- His EX counter does less damage, reduced from 237 to 199.

Producer Yamamoto says: We added some interesting buffs to gameplay using d,d+K. Although parry time on hk+LK {Ex qcb+BD} has been reduced, the overall frames are shorter making it difficult to get punished. Drinking is easier to use compared to the arcade now that there is no defense penalty. Please have fun with the now trickier Chin.

What are the best follow-ups to landing a corner throw?

My current combo (meter allowing) is:

qcb+P (DC) hcf+B, df+BD, df+B, B x ?

More specifically: qcb A, [DC] hcf D, df BD, hcf D, df B~B, s.C

Did you guys see Bala's chin in action? He plays him quite differently from the ones thus far, more upfront rushdown and less tricks. In all the matches I saw he didn't even use df+D once iirc.

He was extremely effective.

[Reiki.Kito]

Might want to edit the OP since he doesn't lose defense when he drinks anymore.

Good catch! Fixed.

Do you have a video? Perhaps we should start a thread for Chin videos.

[Saitsuofleaves]

So in other words the Bala and Kane Video thread?

There is actually a lot of solid play in there for a lot of characters,

Romance played probably the best Kensou I have seen thus far.

There is also some great Clark play by Bala,  and his Billy is the Billy to look at right now.

Best 2 stock HD damage I could muster for console is: 920, no drinking involved, can be done full screen:
j.C, s.C, d x2+K~D, BC, s.C, (qcb A, [HDC] hcf D) x2, df.B, qcb C, [HDC] hcf D, qcb A, [HDC] hcf D, df. B, hcf B, qcb C [HDC], qcf x2+BD (hold up) {every hit but last 1~2}, hcf B, df.B x2~B, s.C

Is it me or Chin doesn't work without stock/HD meter? I'm completely new to this game and I'm having trouble finding a perfect place for him in my team (Vice/King/Chin), should I put him in the third slot so he can take advantage of the meter from the previous characters, or he does just fine in the first slot of a team and I'm playing him completely wrong?

[johrjives]

If I wanted to learn chin, would you recommend the trial combos or are the wiki/combos in these threads much better?

EDIT: wow, I think I found my new favorite character. Hes a machine that steamrolls you into the corner haha.

In the arcade version I would definitely he's best suited for 2nd or 3rd spot.  In the console, you can kinda compensate for the not having much meter by drinking instead.  Although he needs stocks too, he's very Drive gauge dependent.
