[KG] Sharingan with Imperfect

Don't you "buddy and pal" me. This is srs business. Now, in your own words, tell me what you know about the Uchiha, and the Sharingan. If you do a good job, I'll make sure to stop the bleeding when I'm done with what comes next.
The Uchiha clan are the ninja worlds edgelords, inflicted with what is affectionality referred to as the curse of hatred. Although curse of hatred is a bit subjective, really it just seems like they're prone to being excessively emotional, like most teenagers. Descended from the elder of the children of Hagoromo they were blessed with his powerful chakra and his visual prowess, well most of it anyway.
Which brings us to why we're here pretty neatly and with minimal exposition, the Sharingan is the dojutsu of the Uchiha clan and the occasional leaf village thief like Kakashi or Danzo, the eye holds two abilities primarily the first being the eye of insight. The eye of insight allows the user to see chakra though not with perfect precision, they can also perform feats of visual acuity above others, such as reading handseals, following enhanced movement speed, lip reading and other cool things.
The second ability is the eye of hypnotism, this ability is why the Uchiha are feared combatants primarily, able to cast powerful illusions with visual contact alone, this has led to the sporadic development of fighting using eye to chin contact amongst everyone who can use taijutsu on a regular level. These powerful illusions can not only be used to trick people and trap their minds, but in extreme cases Uchiha have been known to completely hypnotise and mind control people for extended periods of time, such as that one Mizukage that looked like a ten year old.
Awesome. You covered all the basic points, so we can get right to business. So, how do you like your trauma? Physical? Mental? Or do you want to be surprised? Doesn't matter much to me, but I like to think of myself as a teacher who cares about his student's preferences. 
My sensei dying brutally seems like good trauma, but whatever you fancy trying friend.Awesome. You covered all the basic points, so we can get right to business. So, how do you like your trauma?

(Dōjutsu: Sharingan) Eye Technique: Copy Wheel Eye
Type: Supplementary
Rank: C - A Rank
Range: Short-Long
Chakra: 15 - 30 ( -5 per turn for 1T and 2T, 10 per turn to keep active for 3T )
Damage: N/A
Description: One of the Three Great Dōjutsu (San Daidōjutsu), the Sharingan is the Kekkei Genkai of the Uchiha clan. Unlike the other Dōjutsu, not all members of the Uchiha Clan possess the Sharingan. This great Dōjutsu seems to awaken only on exceptional Uchiha members and only in times of great stress. Once awaken, the pupil turns red and a single Tomoe (巴) seal appears around the center pupil. As the user masters and evolves their eyes, the Tomoe (巴) seals increase, topping 3 per eye. The main ability of the Sharingan, like any other Dōjutsu, is to enable the user to see the flow of Chakra. This ability is further improved as the Sharingan gives color to Chakra, enabling the user to differentiate Chakras from different people or from different sources. Although the user can see Chakra through matter, he cannot see beyond dense matter or in long distances. Coupled with the ability to see Chakra, Sharingan users gain access to an incredible clarity of perception that enables them to read insanely fast movements or minor details, enabling them the ability to foresee in an easier way, traps, incoming attacks, etc. This clarity of perception is so great that a Sharingan user can sometimes start performing a counter to an attack that is still being performed, enabling the counter to be launched only a split a second after the attack. This clarity of perception leaves Sharingan users able to track high speed movement easily as well as to read through handseals. This last ability enables them to learn techniques much faster and sometimes copy them directly from the enemy, as long as the user has the necessary Chakra affinities and requirements to perform it. Finally, the Sharingan is often linked to Genjutsu and mind-manipulating illusions, mostly because the user can, mostly through Eye Contact, directly and precisely use his Chakra to manipulate the enemy's Chakra flow. In return, the users clarity of perception gives him the ability to more easily decipher visual illusions cast upon him and see past them. The Sharingan has a great cost to the user though. The Chakra consumption disables its use for long periods of time and, even when the user grows stronger, it's still hard to keep it active for long periods of time.
Note: The user, if he hasn't gained full mastery over his Sharingan, will need to spend a move to activate it, although as long as he has Chakra and enough stamina he'll be able to keep it active until the end of the match. If the user is Sannin Rank or above and has gained his 3 Tomoe Sharingan and held it for one month, he becomes able to passively activate it, meaning he'll no longer spend a move of his 3 per turn.
Note: To avoid direct Eye Contact and be able to focus only on the body movement below the chin, the opponent needs to have mastered Taijutsu to possess the necessary skill
Note: C rank usage is for 1T Sharingan, B rank usage is reserved for 2T Sharingan. A Rank usage is reserved for 3T Sharingan.
Note: Predicting the nature of a technique or what it exactly is requires the user to either know the technique or that its a cannon technique.
Note: Danzō and Kakashi bios activate the Sharingan by removing the covers in their respective eyes and suffer a +10 Chakra consumption per turn penalty
Note: The user is bound by the abilities and limits of the stage of Sharingan he possesses, stated in the rules of the KG.

Benefits are pretty much as I mentioned before, the perks of both core abilities of the eyes. This includes casting illusions, technique mimicry, seeing chakra, tracking high speed movements and cool looking red eye trails when the animation budget allows. Drawbacks are everyone looking at your chin from now on, chakra drain I guess and Tobirama attacking you for no good reason.
Other than that I don't really have any questions about it, I feel like I understand it well enough, unless there's anything you want to add?

Memes aside, yup, that's about the long and the short of it. And I know this training is tedious, and you've done it all before, but it's necessary. I have to ask, otherwise your training can be invalidated, and we get the joy of starting from scratch, which I assume you want to avoid? If not, then say the word, and I'll Izanami the whole thread and trap you here until you learn the error of your ways. 
"Great. Now here's what you're able to do with those eyes. For the first, just give the basic rundown, and for the Genjutsu, pick one from each, and tell me why you like it."

Well the copy technique is fairly underused, however if I ever use the bio in the ninja world, it does allow you to copy techniques and retain the knowledge, with the eyes of hatred speciality specifically. Which can lead to some interesting technique stealing potential, it's like a rent a custom.
In regards to the genjutsu and why I like them, heaven and earth change is one of the coolest most underused things in the RP, if someone is on some Kurenai brainlet vibes and tries genjutsu on an uchiha you can hit them with the old "no u" and flip it right back on them, you could even layer the flip if you have the right specialities making a nasty combo.
Phosphorescent light isn't particularly "good" and I don't really like it that much, however it is fast and again any genjutsu can be useful with the right layering even something as simple as this. For example I could layer it with my own soft body genjutsu to prevent them from escaping the explosions.
Dusk Crow is handy in that it doesn't require eye contact and I believe causes paralysation? The description somewhat implies you are immobile and I believe it's based on the illusion Itachi used on Naruto which did leave his immobile and off the floor in the illusion.
Ah Ephemeral the old finger genjutsu itself, I actually have a cool combo I could use with this, turning the friend in to a pseudo CoT with my blackened mirror tech. It's cool because I mean you can point a finger to trigger it, all the no eye contact gen are useful for that though honestly.
Paralyzing Fear is one of the better Sharingan genjutsu honestly, it allows you to inflict immediate paralysis nearly, with very little wind up time. By the time the person realises they're in a gen they're usually paralysed making this an easier gen to follow up from, also no handseals paralytic techniques are always nasty.
Sword Hell is a new one I think, or at least I never paid it much attention before if it's old. I like the aesthetic of it, bootleg Tsukuyomi vibes. The range is kinda lame however, but there are as always ways around that.
Bound by Soul Technique is basically good for the same reasons as paralysing fear, it's very fast causes paralysis and allows easy follow up, just don't try it on any Jinchuriki otherwise you're liable to get absolutely ratio'd with a lariat.
Alright now on to the eye contact required genjutsu. First up we have Copy Wheel Eye Illusion. The best 3T illusion IF you can force eye contact, it allows freely created genjutsu, essentially freeform if you like. The possibilities for this are almost endless provided you can actually use it, but there are some tricks to forcing eye contact that I'm aware of.
Burning Paper Body is kinda bad, I mean it's worse than paralyzing fear, it's also worse than bound by soul, I truly don't think I'd ever use this unless it was solely for the aesthetic of setting someone on fire, maybe you could cover it being an illusion if you'd actually used a lot of fire before hand but that would require RPers to play along, X to doubt.
Piercing Feathers is a sleeper genjutsu when it comes to quality, while it says it's a weaker shackling stakes, which it is by rank at least. It actually has long range capabilities making it very potent if someone forgets to avoid eye contact. So it can work as a tricky manouver in some circumstance.
Shackling Stakes is a very aesthetic move it works in short range only though sadly, this coupled with it's rank makes it inferior to the generic sharingan illusion technique in a lot of regards, this could be fun to use but overall it's just a weaker version of the generic technique, it really needs it's range increased honestly if it was meant to be viable.
