I can get behind her ultras being matchup specific. I can’t count how many times I’ve gone into a match wishing I had picked U2 over U1…or U1 over U2. Saying that one is definitely better than the other is gonna come back to bite people in the ass one of these days. Hopefully not during a tournament.
No, good players don’t jump unless it’s relatively safe to do so and there is an advantage in doing so.
Having an anti-air ultra (even though it’s character specific) means that the amount of safety jumps have decreases.
That said, I like the method of choosing the ultra based on the match-up.
hey… I really don’t think Juri is a tournament character. I went to one yesterday (I did beat sanfords cody in casuals… but I had to be super lame.) and i wound up playing chun 98% of my matches. juri vs the vortex is a wrap ( I got peaced out by megaman steve). i dont even practice with chun anymore and I win with her. i hope when they update chars and patch sht that juri gets better because as of now I am just going back to my vanilla main who has good answers for things and has beast normals
Later brah.
If you cant handle Juri then later.
I just want to know what are the advantages of using c.mp as a poke over c.mk? i know both has the same startup frames and that c.mk has longer range and hits low. And i read somewhere that c.mp has longer active frames but i don’t understand the concept on why this is beneficial, can someone please enlighten me.
Longer active frames simply means the move stays out longer. For example, let’s say an Abel rolls at you while you’re doing nothing. With cr.mk, you have to time it so that when Abel comes out of his roll, he’s right in that 2 frame window, otherwise you eat a TT. Whereas with cr.mp, you have a 6 frame window, which is far more useful for that type of thing.
Also if you’re playing footsies with someone, there’s a much bigger chance of them walking into a move that stays out for 6 frames than them walking into something that stays out for 2 frames.
Oh and of course, cr.mp does more damage and has that kara effect.
Given, these probably aren’t the best examples but they were the first to come to mind.
I just took 4th in a local tourney with Juri but granted you have a large pool base of top level players so you have a better idea of the match ups. I still think she’s tourney viable but in general it’s always good to have multiple characters under your belt to cover your match ups. If you are looking to flat out win you might as well top tier whore and learn Rufus and Rog to cover your match ups. Chun-Li and Juri can cover some match ups as well but you’ll need a 3rd to cover the top tiers.
Bison. He covers Juri’s weaknesses damn well.
Fuck that character. He’s so incredibly mindless. I’d rather learn a top tier character with skill like Abel.
I’d personally Give the mindless title to Balrog, Fuck that dude. And Abel’s new Ultra “Brainless” can suck it as well, shit is mad whack.
I gotta agree with this myself. I get to play with one of the best Boxers in the local (Philippine) scene and he absolutely destroys my Juri.
Chun-Li covers most of Juri’s weaknesses. They both lose to Viper but she covers Bison, Rog, Blanka and Honda and goes even with Guile and Abel.
I’d rather get penetrated By Bison/Rog/(insert shitty match up character here (no homo) than to wuss out and use Fuckin Chun.
Need to get some mirrors in with some people on here, my Juri’s sucking and I need some help.
Yeah I’m having some trouble too. Seems like whenever I get better in one area I get worse in another.
I’m doing another meetup tomorrow at 3pm CST (4pm EST).
That aside, I’m available on PSN most of the time.
I don’t see Juri mirrors helping that much, imo. I’m more concerned with how other Juri players handle her other match ups. I don’t find myself playing the same against other Juri’s because I know what I can and can’t get away with in the mirror.
man, i need a pro jpn juri. it’s pretty damn hard using a character without a uideline to follow lol.
although i don’t agree with most of you’re post, i do agree with juri being knockdown vs a decent gouki is pretty much gg’s. vortex just rapes her so fucking hard.
