Lucky Chloe is....an interesting character to decide to main. I honestly picked her up because she's troll as fuck ("ONE, TWO") but she's really fun use. That said, all of her gimmicks are horrifically unsafe and nobody seems to know except the Chloe player. The moment I hit Vanguard, people started punishing shit that even I didn't know was punishable because people let me get away with it so much.
The thing that makes her fun though is that she has so many stupid gimmicky moves that you can use her unsafeness to your advantage.
Her command throw (puts you in backturn) is the biggest example....It's either complete fucking trash or fear inducing depending on how people react to it. How much damage you take from it is entirely dependent on how you know to react to it. It's a mixup that's at its worse when you think that I don't know how limited it is.
I picked up Lucky Chloe just to learn how to stop her gimmicks... and then decided to main her. The thing I like about Chloe is that no matter how far I'm behind, I always feel like I can make a comeback. Other characters, like Lee, can feel hopeless if there's a life deficit.
I tend to keep most of her dumb gimmicks in my pocket and spend most of the match abusing 4, WR3, df1, d4, db4, ff3, and b3. Then as the set goes on slowly incorporate her dumb stuff. Using them rarely decreases the chances of it being punished, and when the opponent knows it can be punished, it makes them frustrated.
People are so scared or so prepared for he california roll that being back turned is ripe for doing crazy things. The number of times roll > throw has worked is nuts. Then there's those rare few times I use their hesitation to ki-charge and smack them with f2, 1+2.
Her command throw is actually a semi-Waining Moon, where instead of a guaranteed combo, you get a 50/50 mix-up that can give a good combo. It's either high 1,2,1+2 > b1 for like 50%, or mid 3,4 > df3,3 > dash in f2,2 with a chance for a b1. Some people go for df2,4,3,1 instead of 3,4, but that's too tough for me to bother with. You can do 1,2,2 if you cwant to check if they'll duck the high.
I tend to end most of her combos with f2,2 which gives me a chance for a b1, or if they get up, WR3 that leaves me at crazy plus frames.
Also, hey! They patched the game and fixed the blacks/browns in customization mode! (PS4)
