NOTE: Lin's normals are very fast and can combo into each other without being canceled into(cr.B,cr.C) and can reset his qcf+A/C without droping the combo.
Close
cl.A/B/C/D are cancel-able
cl.A/B chain into themselves and each other
cl.C two hits, both are cancellable
Standing
s.A cancel-able and good poke
s.B has good range and can set up frame traps
s.C advances Lin forward, though it looks like an overhead it isn't
s. D is a fast anti-air, it whiffs on crouching opponents except larger ones like Daimon, Chang, Maxima
Crouching
cr.A/B cancel-able
cr.C two hits, both are cancellable
cr.D slow but far sweep
Jumping
neutral j.A as a spinning property at the beginning, its hitbox doesn't start til Lin's arm pops out
j.B has a steep downward angle with a surprisingly large hitbox as an air to air move
j.C is also has a steep downward angle, but is largely useful as a close range hop in starter
j.D is Lin's best air move with a sweeping arc that makes it a good air to air, a good hitbox to land from different distances on standing or crouching opponents, as well as having character specific crossup possibility
j.CD is an ok air to air move and has some use as a fake jump-in into throw or mixup
Blowback Attack
Comes out slow and has a tilted(upward)hitbox.
has preemptive anti-air quality if timed well
is whiff cancellable into specials
Throws
Akuzan - (b/f + C close)
Lin picks the opponent up by the neck and pierce it then briefly drops them. Throw leaves the opponent very close so be wary when fighting opponents with command grabs(Clark,Ralf,Daimon,Raimon,etc)
can be broken
causes hard knockdown
Akuzan Ki -( b/f + D close)
Lin picks the opponent up by the neck and pierce it and throws the opponent.
can be broken
causes hard knockdown
Command Moves
Benpatsuken - (f + A)
Lin steps forward and crosses his arms while performing a shoulder rush.
Benpatsuken is a really good command move, it has a nice forward hitbox and comes out at decent speed
can combo into it and then from it, used in most of Lin's BnBs
great MAX mode starter
Joudan Hakkyoku Ken Dakai - (df + C)
Lin spreads his arms and smashes the ground.
hits overhead
causes hard knockdown
it has a small hitbox and comes out slowly.
although this is Lin's only direct overhead and you can cancel into it, it should only be used rarely and in mix-ups.
Special Moves
Hiten Kyaku - (hcb + B/D)
Lin jimps horizontally while kicking multiple time in mid air.
hits mid
Hiten Kyaku versions B/D are very different despite the similar move animation.
B version comes out fast, unsafe on block, and its final hit(3 Hits) can hit an opponent while on the ground.
B version causes hard knockdown
B version is negative on block, but it pushes Lin back 3/4 of the screen
D version starts slower, safe on block, and its final hit(4 Hits) is a launcher which allows him to perform resets or free extra damage by linking his dp.A/C.
D version causes soft knockdown
D version is safe on block and leaves Lin point blank
Muei Kou Sa Shu - (dp + A/C)
Lin swiftly strikes in a barrage of punches cutting through the opponent.
has upper body invincibility
hits mid
negative on block, but pushes Lin back from the opponent
can be canceled into
can be used as an anti-air and has a vacuum effect that draws the opponent in
causes soft knockdown
Kasumi - (qcb + A/C)
Lin removes his mask then spits out poison toward the opponent,
A version is fast, can combo, and knocks the opponent away
A version causes soft knockdown
C version releases a smog of poison that lingers in the air for a bit
C version is slow, its final hit wall bounce the opponent on counter hit, but cannot combo into.
C version causes hard knockdown
third hit of the C version is super cancellable
both versions are decent zoning tools and A version is a good pressure tool
Himou Kyaku - (hcf + B/D)
Lin phases out of reality and teleports through the stage.
a very useful tool because it allows Lin to swiftly and relatively safely attack the opponent and escapes from corner pressure/rushdown.
B version allows Lin to only go through half of the screen
B version is faster, but has no upper body invulnerability. Can't go through projectiles and can be stopped by any mid attack
B version has some lower body invulnerability so makes it a great pressure or safety tool
D version allows him to go full screen.
D version has no lower body invulnerability, it can pass through projectiles, but it can be stop by any low attack
D version has a lot of upper body invulnerability
Tetsuzan-bu Rasatsu -(qcf + A/C)
Lin thrusts his hand toward the opponent covered in poison.
rekka starter
hits mid
safe on block
Lin's primary BnB tool and combo starter
fast enough poke to be useful as a spacing and punishing tool
If you start the rekka with A, the follow-ups need to be done with A. Similarly if you start with C, you gotta keep using C.
┗Tetsuzan-bu Nagi - (hcb + A/C)
Lin alters the poison release in his hand and thrusts it upwards toward the opponent.
rekka follow up
hits mid
safe on block and pushes Lin back a character distance away
super cancel-able
┗Tetsuzan-bu Hakei - f + A/C
Lin strikes hard with a twisting palm thrust.
rekka finisher
hits mid
causes soft knockdown
negative if blocked, so if the first 2 rekkas are blocked do not follow into this as it leaves Lin very close to the opponent
tosses the opponent about 1/2 the screen
Jyatotsuga - (rdp + A/B/C/D)
Lin kneels and extends his arm into the ground reappearing in a location dictated by A/B/C.
it is a great zoning and mixup tool because Lin can launch the opponent towards or away from him anywhere on the screen.
all versions hit mid
all versions are safe on block
A version comes out as a V shape or if point blank as a rectangle behind the opponent that launches them over Lin
A version is a fast spacing tool to stymie opponent progress or occasionally as an anti-air
B version functions the same as A, but with a longer range
B version whiffs at point blank range
C version has the longest range
C version hits the opponent into the air higher than the others and allows time for a jumping or ground followup including his dp+p
D version is a faint to bait a jump-in and anti-air or zone to build meter.
Desperation Moves
Yougou - (hcf x 2 + B/D)
Lin phasewalks toward the opponent and appears behind them sliting their throat.
counts as an unblockable throw.
can be evaded by jumping and due to its horrible recovery time Lin will be wide open.
B version covers less distance than its D ver.
both versions phase turn projectiles
Ranbu Dokuga - (qcb hcf + A/C)
Lin slides toward the opponent and then performs a chain of combos upon contact.
has many options and a large variety of set-ups that allows it to be canceled into making it a great combo ender and punisher
both versions have partial upper/lower invulnerability during the phase walk
Super Desperation Moves
Ranbu Dokuga - (qcb hcf + AC)
Lin slides towards the opponent, performs various chains of attacks and finishes by watching the poison aftershock take effect.
EX version of Lin's ranbu super causes more damage
can combo into it
hits mid
causes hard knockdown
Senju Rakan Satsu - (d, d, d + AC)
Lin unleashes a onslaught of attacks ripping through the opponent with his sorcerously stretched limbs
can combo off of any attack Lin manages to connect.
It has very fast start up and very long range
It is also useful to use when the opponent has 15% health or lower to chip them to death.
unlike Lin's dp it does not vacuum aerial opponents and will hit them once and knock them out of the super, thus not useful as anti-air
Hidden Super Desperation Move
Hiada Ougi Dokushu Kou - (hcb x 2 + AC)
Lin picks up the opponent then slowly moves his hand as it changes color then swiftly pierces them and throws them down.
it is a command grab and the only move in 2k2UM that poisons the opponent.
poison stays active until the opponent health reach 10%,
has poor damage for an HSDM (poison makes up some for that), and can combo into.
the range you have to be in to grab the opponent is bigger than most command throws (about 1/2 character distance)
Combos
Every (cr.B,) is an optional 4f link into cr.C to make the combo into a low but requires to be almost point-blank. If you don't use it, you can add a jump-in instead.
cr.B, cr.C goes from 4f to 1f link on crouching (Bao, Robert) and 3f link on the rest of these inconsistent characters except the st.Kyo_Jhun-tier.
If you input hcb+P at any point in a round, for the rest of the round you can input the follow-up of his P rekka as hcf+A/B/C/D(instead of hcb+P) and it will execute the rekka.
If you then do hcb+P', P' being the other punch button, the effect will transfer to the P' rekka.
This makes it significantly easier to execute a super cancel into his hcfx2+K super as you can just do qcf+A > hcf+X, (SC) hcf+K.

★ cr.Bx1~2, cr/st.A, qcf+A > hcb+A > f+A
Longest and most reliable low conversion. You can use cr.A instead of cr.B but you lose the low, keep cr.B. 14%
★ (cr.B,) cr.C(1), f+A, qcf+C > hcb+C > f+C
Decent damage and carry, good one to default to. If you don't use cr.B, you can do cr.C(2) against everyone but crouching Bao. 23%.
(cr.B,) cr.C(1), f+A, hcb+B
Less damage and carry than the last but hard knockdown so a bit better oki. 17%.
cr.B, cr.C(2), f+A, rdp+C, dp+P/j.CD
Max damage and normally a 4f link, so fairly easy. However, it doesn't work on Shermie and crouching Bao, is a 1f link on crouching Robert, a 2f link on the rest of these inconsistent characters except standing Jhun and a 3f link on Kasumi, crouching(Billy, Kensou) and standing Xiangfei. Use dp+P for more damage, 32% and j.CD for better oki, 29%.
Good reset to then meaty or rehop. If you don't use cr.B, you can do cr.C(2) against everyone but crouching Bao.
cr.C(2), f+A, hcb+B
Not much damage but okay confirm and hard knockdown if you need the extra oki. 20%

★ cr.C(2), f+A, qcb,hcf+P
Good damage and comfy confirm for 1 bar, works on everyone. Adding cr.B before cr.C(2) will be a 4f link on most characters but the combo won't work anymore on crouching Bao, will be a 1f link on crouching Robert and a 2f link on Shermie and the rest of these inconsistent characters except standing Jhun. If unsure, stick to cr.B, cr.C(1).

cr.B, cr.A, qcf+A > hcb+A, (SC) hcfx2+K
Can be input as qcf+A > hcf+X, (SC) hcf+K if input bug used.
cr.Bx1~2, cr.A, qcf+A > hcb+A, (SC) qcb,hcf+P
Can input as hcb+A, (SC) hcf+P if delayed enough after qcf+A.
This combo ends in a hard knockdown which sets up a wake-up cross-up DM qcb,hcf+P. Character specific. If you don't use cr.B, both cr.C(1) can be cr.C(2) against everyone but crouching Bao.
3 Stocks
Anywhere
★ cr.C(2), f+A, qcb,hcf+AC
Good way to dump meter for decent damage. Adding cr.B before cr.C(2) will be a 4f link on most characters but the combo won't work anymore on crouching Bao, will be a 1f link on crouching Robert and a 2f link on Shermie and the rest of these inconsistent characters except standing Jhun. If unsure, stick to cr.B, cr.C(1).
