The Chidori is Best utilized when it is a dash attack, having the users quickly zone in and striking than moving on to the next target. Unlike the Rasengan it is not effective motionless, it requires movement.

It doesn't bolster speed but requires high speed for the best result. It can't effect the body or arm as the Chakra is focused in the palm. The discharge is added range and doesn't propel anything.
