Quan Chi is the ruler of the Netherrealm, and a very powerful sorcerer. He is cunning and deadly, and other stuff. He works well as a 'zoner' with his undefendable EX Ground Burst as well as a movable Sky Drop which will keep opponents on their toes. Not only is he good as a 'zoner' but he also has an incredible mix up game.

Spoiler:
1=X/Square 2=Y/Triangle 3=A/X 4=B/Circle
xx= dash/cancel (varies), j.p/j2 = jump punch, njp=not used here.

[Kombo Attacks]
Spoiler:
1, 1, 2- generic 3 hit combo, linkable with Trance, cool against pressure and fast(ish)
1, 1, 3- another generic 3 hitter
b1, 1- generic 2 hitter
f1, 2, 1+2- Perfect to know, 2nd hit is low
2, 1, 2- linkable to trance if used if opponent is airborne
2, 1, u3- It's useful, hits medium
b2, 1 - Must know, a launcer
b2, 4- Useless :X
b3, 3- Good to know, first hit is low
b3, 1+2- Good to know, like the above combo, just 2nd hit is a launcher/medium
u3-Useful as it's a sole medium attack if people are crouch-guarding
[Tactics]
Spoiler:
-VS Spam, Zoners, and Keepaways
Movable Sky Dive is perfect to close in on these guys. Skeletal Boost/Buff is awesome if your opponent isn't 'zoning/spamming', or trading in a projectile with trance works just as well, EX Ground Burst is also unblockable, if they're pro guarding.
-VS Teleport Spammers
Guard>Punish repeat.
-Anti Air Tactics
Neutral Sky Drop downright punishes this, or Trance which gives you a free combo.
-Mixup Game
(will update later)
[Specials]
Spoiler:
Skeletal Boost (db4)- cool for damage/regen randomly, use in caution. EX gives both
Ground Burst (varies)- Goes from close-medium-far, extremely useful, it's EX is unblockable
Skull Ball (db2)- Generic Projectile
Sky Drop (db3)- Generic Teleport, without the genericness. You can control it to land on the opponent (no dpad motion required), or to land behind or in front of the enemy by holding left or right on the dpad respectively.
Trance (bf3)- Like Scorpions Spear, just does finger magic instead. Very useful
X-Ray Amulet Assault- Works a lot like Stryker's X-Ray, it works well against people that jump, 32% damage bare, 33% damage with trance. Also if someone is ducking, don't bother, it'll be ignored completely.

f1, 2 trance b2, 1 xx b2, 1 xx 2, 1, X-Ray 50% Damage (A Lot more efficient than the combo above, do not finish 2, 1, 2, start immediately with X-Ray)

B2,1 Dash, 1,1,2, Trance, 2, 1, 4 [added by Demetrius] 30% damage
[Super Easy X-Ray Combos] - Almost as if you're mashing x-ray itself!
Spoiler:
[Tips/Insight]- (Advantages to these, is it's easy to make, and if you just want to get some damage without the worry of breaking the combo, it's right there. Plus, these are generally linkable in a combo, most of the time anyways.)
1, 1, 2 x-ray 35% damage
u3 x-ray 29% damage
2, 1 x-ray 39% damage
b3, 1+2 x-ray 37% damage (timing is somewhat tight)
Trance X-Ray 33% damage (1% MORE THAN REGULAR)
