Rank: A
Type: Offense
Range: Short-Long
Chakra Cost: 30
Damage Points: 60
Description: The user forms a whirling vortex of electricity around themselves. The vortex will take on the form of a dragon’s head and will grow to then shoot forward and cover the area in front of them. Even if the attack doesn't directly connect with his foe, the lightning can jump from the vortex to hit a nearby target.

Range: Short - Mid
Chakra cost: 30
Damage points: 60
Description: After doing the Rabbit Rat Horse Ram hand seals, the user will slam his hand on the ground and release into it a massive amounts of lightning chakra which will then pool beneath his opponent before releasing itself into a gigantic column of lightning which shocks anything caught above it. The technique can affect a bigger or smaller area depending on the users will.
( Raiton: Sandāboruto ) - Lightning Style: Thunderbolt
Type: Offensive
Rank: A
Range: Short - Mid
Chakra: 30
Damage: 60
Description: The user extends both arms, releasing a high discharge through both palms, targeting multiple opponents simultaneously. It is possible to increase the power using this technique in combination with a water source. Working similarly to False Darkness, the held orbs split into several tendrils of lightning. If used against a target submerged in water, the strength increases +20.

Lightning Release: Thunder Dragon Tornado
Counter: I would most probably attack them from bellow, where they are unprotected, with an earth jutsu. Or a powerful A-rank Wind jutsu that would both defeat the dragon and go for the user.
Adv.~ This is a nice justsu because, even though it's primarily offensive, the user creates a spinning vortex around their body, protecting them from all sides. The defense is active even from the above, because the dragon form above the head, which rarely happen. The dragon is large and massive and can affect even in long range. It's hard to dogde it, especially because even if the dragon doesn't directly hit the the target, the lightning from the vortex could jump towards it.
Dis.~ The only serious disadvantage I would highlight is that the spinning lightning restrics the user's vision which can be exploited by the opponent.
Lightning Release: Telegram Flash
Counter: Against this, I would use a Wind justu which would perhaps push me away from that spot, or protect me from bellow, or even all sides. It depens on what I'm going to do for a counter-attack.
Adv.~ The lightning travels extremely fast and thus your opponent doesn't have much time to react. This would be cool to use to create an oppening, as the oppoent could perhaps somehow throw themselves into the air to avoid it, and that woud make them vulnerable and create a good oppenint. It's good that the user can control the size of the area that the lightning will affect. Which means that you could attack a normal human being or even a larger summoning animal.
Dis.~ It's a shame that it requires 4 hand seals, which slows the process, and that it doesn't go into long range.
Lightning Style: Thunderbolt
Counter: I would use a Wind jutsu which would easaly pass through the field of lightning bolts and go directly for the user.
Adv.~ Great for attacking multiple targets, mostly clones. It's even better if they are underwater.
Dis.~ It's not good against one opponent, as the strength is divided into many smaller brances. Furthermore, as this requires you to use both hands, it makes you very vulnerable against attacks. You wouldn't have a free hand to defend and would have to end using the technique to be able to quickly respond. And that is very messy, leaving a lot of space for your opponent to strike.

great analysis. Ilike when students actually display effort in their replies.
Raiton: Gian) - Lightning Style: False Darkness
Rank: S
Type: Attack
Range: Short-Long
Chakra cost: 40
Damage Points: 80
Descripton: The user, after performing the Snake hand seal, emits lightning in the shape of a spear from their hands or mouth which then pierces the enemy. Kakuzu, the original user, shoots the technique from his Lightning mask's mouth. Its destructive power is great enough to even pierce through rock; meaning it has a high killing potential. The user can increase the number of spears to attack multiple enemies by branching the main spear. This, coupled with the sheer speed of the lightning, makes it a difficult technique to evade. This strong attack can be defended against by an equally strong attack of the same element such as Raikiri.
(Raiton: Raikiri Nibai Raikou Jishin) Lightning Release: Lightning Blade Double Lightning Quake
Rank: S
Type: Offensive
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 40
Damage points: 80
Description: The user performs (Raiton: Raikiri) - Lightning Release: Lightning Blade and splits it in two, covering both hands in Lightning. He will then perform a melee attack at the enemy, unleashing the powerful lightning into him.
(Raiton: Kirin) - Lightning Release: Kirin
Rank: S
Type: Offense
Range: Mid-Long
Chakra Cost: 70
Damage Points: 120
Description: After using a fire jutsu to heat the atmosphere and create thunderclouds in the sky, the user will use Chidori to take control of the lightning above. They can then make the lightning strike an opponent in the blink of an eye.
Note: Can only be used by Lightning Specialists.
Note: Can only be avoided with time/space techniques or otherwise absolute defenses.
Note: Can only be used once per battle.
Note: In the turn before the use of Kirin, the user must have used at least a B-Rank, Long Range Fire (Katon) technique directed at the sky.
Note: User needs to post Chidori, meaning that in the turn Kirin is used, the user spends 2 moves.

Lightning Style: False Darkness
Counter: Perhaps using quick counterattack Taijutsu moves would be the best and easiest solution against this jutsu.
Adv.~ Extremely powerful. Too much even. It's shot out of mouth almost instantly, traveles towards the opponent in great speed and can pierce through them without a problem. All that makes it hard to defend against. It's great that the user can branch the main spear to attack multiple enemies when such is needed. This would be an easy solution when dealing with a lot of clones or projectiles.
Dis.~ No serious disadvantages. Thus kind of boring.
Lightning Release: Lightning Blade Double Lightning Quake
Counter: As a defense for this jutsu, I would prefer implicit defense by counterattacking and not directly countering the jutsu. Creating an opening with Taijutsu (since the fighting is in short range) and then striking for the opponent's exposed spot.
Adv.~ The perk of having two Raikiris in seperate hands is that the user can perhaps manage to bypass the defense. The user could use the first Raikiri to defend against the opponent's attack and/or to create an oppening and then they would attack with the other hand. I would love to combine this with Taijutsu moves.
Dis.~ However, the power of the Raikiri gets cut in half (it still remains a powerful strike since this is S rank, though). The user also needs to perform Raikiri first which takes up a jutsu slot. Moreover, it requires both of the user's hands which leaves them vulnerable for the target's counterattack. Especially if it's Wind or something similar, which is naturally stronger than Lightning.
Lightning Release: Kirin
Counter: Since defending against to this would be close to impossible, I would of course stop my opponent in the process of making it. How would that look depends on a lot of factors.
Adv.~ The ultimate Lightning jutsu of amazing, immeasurable power. The final strike is impossible to defend against (except when having an ultimate defense).
Dis.~ However, that power is well restricted. The process does take a lot of time. The user needs to prepare for a whole turn. In the prior turn, you need to send a Fire jutsu towards the sky and that is very risky because it means that 1/3 jutsus in that turn is not launched against the opponent. Also if you use the needed Fire jutsu at the end of the turn and it doesn't go through because you're interrupted, you fail in preparation, delaying the turn in which you’re able to use Kirin. Even if you manage to do the Fire part, the user can also be stopped when creating Chidori, which is again not headed directly towards the opponent. A lot of things have to go ideally for this to work. It’s cool but there are much better and more creative tactics of fighting.

(Raiton: Chidori Jinrai) Lightning Release: 1000 birds ThunderClap.
Rank: S
Type: Attack
Range: Mid-Long
Chakra cost: 40
Damage points: 80
Description: The user will cover his hands in with lightning, essentially performing a (Raiton: Chidori) Lightning Release: One Thousand Birds in each hand. Clapping his hands together, the user can unleash that massive amount of lightning chakra into the form of a powerful Thunderbolt directed at the target. The technique is best used if the user has a height advantage in relation to the target. The thunderbolt is strong enough to leave a giant crater and cannot be used while being in Short-range of the target, at the risk of being hit also.
(Raiton: Raikiri) - Lightning Release: Lightning Blade
Rank: S
Type: Offense
Range: Short (Long if applied to a projectile weapon)
Chakra Cost: 40
Damage Points: 80
Description: The Lightning Cutter is an enhanced and concentrated form of the Chidori with the same effects and drawbacks that is done performing the Ox Rabbit Monkey hand seals. According to Might Guy, it gained its name after Kakashi split a bolt of lightning with it. Because the Chidori is already powerful on its own, the Lightning Cutter requires better chakra control, which is exemplified in its appearance. The Chidori appears as simply a mass of white electrical chakra in the user's hand, while the Lightning Cutter is much more focused. Kakashi has shown different ways of forming and using the Lightning Cutter, unique to him. For example, he demonstrated the ability to imbue a projectile weapon, such as a kunai, with his Lightning Cutter, granting the technique long-range capabilities by throwing the kunai towards his target. In this instance, the kunai was capable of piercing through multiple large rocks with ease, without any loss of momentum or change in trajectory.
Note: Kakashi biographies can use the technique without hand seals.
Note: Only Kakashi biographies can apply the technique to a kunai and use it as a projectile attack.

Counter: Counter against this would be again complicated. A lot of this S rank Lightning jutsus are extremely fast and thus defending by going after the jutsus itself is not very smart and you don't have much time to react. I feel very repetetive for mentioning Taijutsu all the time, but dodging the attack in some way and launching a powerful, fast counterattack towards your opponent seems like the best solution.
Adv.~ This is a very powerful. The lightning bolt is incredibly fast and strong and reaches the target in almost an instant. Since it can leave a giant crater in the ground, I can imagine what it could do to a person.
Dis.~ It's a shame that the user has to perform Chidori first. Not only that it takes a jutsu slot and reduces the productivity of your turn, Chidori takes requires a lot of handseals if you haven't mastered Lightning which takes up a lot of time. Therefore, I don't see people who don't have Lightning as their primary specialty using this. The fact that this should not be used in close range is not really a big disadvantage, since there is a lot of fast paced jutsus to replace this.
Lightning Release: Lightning Blade
Counter: Defending against this would not the direct, going after the Raikiri itself. We've seen many times in Naruto that Chidori, Rasengan or similar jutsus are stopped by even grabbing the hand of your opponent. Therefore, Taijutsu sequences could be great here but a bit risky since the lightning could touch you. You should make your opponent busy by attacking them and forcing them to defend and stop using Raikiri.
Adv.~ The best of th best, crème de la crème, a famous jutsu created by Kakashi. It is great that it requires less hand seals than Chidori, only two, which makes it more useful for those who haven't put Lightning for speciality. The power that this has when you strike a person with it is superb, even having the ability to kill!
Dis.~ The drawback would be the range of the jutsu. The user has to practically make contanct with its target and of course that they will do anything before they allow you to touch them. Also, the user has to have great control over the lighning in their hand and the jutsu can be disabled if they lose it.
