Every time a new installment is out, tons of characters are called cheap. Fuerte’s splashes were cheap. Bison’s medium kick had too much range and was too powerful. Seth was cheap because he had almost everyone’s moves.
Calling a character ‘cheap’ is a vicious cycle…it happens with every game.
I love Juri. I think one of her biggest weaknesses, however, is that if you’re not playing defense, a lot of her moves can be punishable and even predictable sometimes. As time goes on, people will know what to expect.
Agreed 100%. I’m just glad I can get away with the abuse for now. When you fight someone that knows what they are doing the matches become much more difficult. I usually just try to take the lead and then zone like a bad mother fucker. And even charges have some disadvantages to me since I use a fightpad and it is hard to do techs/focus attacks with it
I dunno who the fuck is saying juri is cheap… i don’t agree… maybe cause she’s new to me and completly different then my last main, but i have a fuck of a time winning with her sometimes, everything is unsafe… there is nothing you can just throw out there… but i am sticking to it…
I think you have it right: charge the light kick, do the movement, and release the button.
The problem is most people do the Fuhajin without charging, which adds the kick into the combo. It’s supposed to be ONLY the fireball – someone correct me if I’m wrong here. (Someone explained this to me beautifully in another thread, but I forgot which one!). I’m not at home, so can’t try it right now, but I will definitely do it later. I skipped 15 due to frustration haha. I’m almost done with all her trials though.
Well safe or not if u aim your dive kicks right and use lk. pinwheel alot it seems to be fairly safe to rushdown most of the cast. I havent really tried zoning with her yet, mostly just rush down.
btw ken was my main in vanilla(along with 3s, sfa3, and st) and i find juri to be kinda natural so maybe its a ken/juri thing
Woah, so I totally didn’t think about using teleport against shotos. That’s… brilliant knowledge that I should’ve had myself XD. But I will try to control the flow of the match. Thanks for the advice, gals and guys :3
A couple things aside from punishable moves are that she has a painfully slow walk speed encouraging new people to jump/dive kick. I believe that her command counter warp is a good thing to use a lot but it has to be zoned properly. Her overhead attack is really slow, either that or it’s the animation that makes me believe that it is.
I dunno, she’s got good tools, cr.mk, Pinwheel kick is the safest I can get. Hit confirming the cr.mk gives you the chance to do hk Pinwheel kick. Having trouble deciding when to use the j.mp against other jump ins.
EX Fireball gives her opportunity to rush down, there’s a problem with it though, close range against crouchers, it homes over them as a mid angled fireball.
Thank god, Juri isn’t even broken. Hell even Sagat and Guile players are sending me hate mail because they don’t understand how to counter j.mp > ex dive kick > ultra. BOO HOO
