Introduction
Juri is a wild, rushdown character with few weaknesses. Juri's toolkit gives her access to great mobility, strong guard cancels, and a solid combo game. She can effortlessly cancel her dash momentum and go for a special attack, poke, or throw. Due to the speed and priority of her special attacks, Juri can beat a lot of guard cancels after cancelling her pokes into a special attack. If Juri is pressured into a block string, she can counter with Somersault Kick, Rolling Slicer, or Galactic Cyclone because they are very powerful and consistent guard cancels. Lastly, Juri's combos are great. She has access to multiple touch of deaths and long juggles that are similar to Rolf's and Kazuma's combos.
Juri only has two major weaknesses. Most of her damaging combos require a lot of practice, and she can easily become predictable. Although Juri has no problem incrementally dealing damage by winning small interactions, she wants to maximize as much damage as possible after landing a poke with her longer combos. If Juri spends more time fighting against an opponent, then that gives the opponent more opportunities to understand the Juri player's habits. Her choices to approach are obvious, and an experienced player will recognize what to do in certain situations against Juri. A good Juri player is always unpredictable and knows how to force reactions out of their opponent.
