Rank: C
Type: Attack
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra Cost: 15
Damage Points: 30
Description: This technique after performing the required hand seals Tiger → Hare → Dragon allows the user to produce a cyclone of sharp winds and petals to attack their opponent.
After you weave 3 handseals, you channel your wind chakra to the atmosphere and sharpen it, while rotating your chakra violently, to materialize forth a cyclone of slashing winds, and petals. The cyclone originates around you, and you can guide it wherever you want, only upto mid-range though. It travels in the form of a large drill. I wouldn't use it in mid-range, as the opponent has a good amount of time to counter. Could be good in short range, if you manage to subdue the opponent/use this on him to blast him away from short range if you don't want close quarter combat, as well as inflict some wounds on his body, though not major.

Description: The user unleashes a wave of wind that slashes at the opponent by swinging their hand or hands.
Requires no handseals, so is quite fast in its performance. After gathering your chakra in your hands, and sharpening it, you release it outwards to a wide area in the atmosphere, thereby materializing a wide wave of slashing wind that can inflict some wounds on the opponent and stop him from getting into short range. I would use this over the previous technique, because of the lack of handseals and the speed with which it travels. Very straightforward.
Positives are one it creates a cyclone that can travel anywhere you want between short to mid range. Two this cyclone can repel people and possibly small ninja tools and three the cyclone causes cutting damage to opponents hit by this or trapped inside it.
Negatives are one requires hands seals making it slower than most futon jutsu and two the jutsu moves at a slow pace making it easy to dodge unless you set op the opponent and trap them inside it.
Usage for me in combat would probably have to be used in combination with a partner to work smoothly.

Positives are one requires no hand seals making it faster to use than the previous one mentioned. Two it is a fast moving jutsu and can enclose on its target fairly quickly. Three it causes cutting damage as it is a slicing jutsu and four it can prevent short range encounters if you prefer to fight mid to long range.
Usage for me would be against taijutsu users and other short range fighters. I would also use it with my own short range combinations.
