The Spider's Lair - Juri

Yes! <3

Juri joined Team Magma?!

Quick question, why in all the tournament videos do Juri players hit buttons after a released lk fireball seeing as it’s -2 on block? If it’s negative I don’t know why it seems to work though. Are they just unfamiliar with Juri?

Spacing can make it plus on block and more on hit.

Edit - at worst I assume it could be even on block off of certain normals?

It can be like 0 on block canceling into it from far enough away, but at that distance you can’t get much else anyway other than a st.hk, and if they jump after the fireball you could eat a full combo if you went ahead with hitting additional buttons.

Bit random, but how many of you PC players are randomly browsing steam SF V pictures while waiting for matches ?

I’ve found some cool and funny pics of Juri :stuck_out_tongue:

That’s just going to happen sometimes.

Dare 2 Compare.

St.lp is space and matchup dependent. Some characters will eat that anti air alive.

To be honest I’m ok with Juri’s st.lp not being than strong as AA, my concern is that her cr.hp AA wich have CC properties is not a true AA untill she is in V-Trigger, Ryu should not have a st.lp aa or at least not that strong if he already have a 3f meterless invincible reversal all around AA and a st.hk AA with CC properties.

Oh yeah I know. I’m just saying you can’t expect it to work out like Ryu, Chun or Alex. They should shrink that Ryu hitbox though. And his j.lks.

You can standing hard kick or hazanshu them out of the air as well. Made some videos on it awhile ago.

@Terios you need to post those links again. You hot linked so they dont work.

I see you fixed it.

Im not surprised at all but for some of you that are still not convinced both Tokido and Infiltrations thinks Juri is the weakest character in BornFree’s last interviews. Both videos have timestamps so you can look for the questions there.

Infiltration saying her vtrigger is so bad makes me sad, I think that’s really the only strong point she has.

Juri has plenty good anti airs. c.HP not being great limits one of her AA options, but she’s basically one of the best characters to AA with in the game. MK pinwheel, s.LP, air throw and s.HP all work well enough. MK pinwheel gives you a meterless, guaranteed option which not many characters have and the others all work with the right spacing against the right jump ins.

Funny enough I’ve been using c.HP more as a counter poke than an AA. If you land it on CC you can get dash in into full s.MP, f+HP target into whatever after that. The hit boxes are very specifically placed on it, but it works on a read against a decent amount of the other buttons in the game.

Weakest DLC character isn’t terrible since I believe all the DLC characters are better than the actual weakest characters. Infiltration says she has a weak V Skill, but we have a list of top tier characters that have nearly useless V Skills, very bad V Skills or just extremely situational ones. Necalli is the only high tier character with a good V Skill that you can use regularly in neutral. The others are situationally good or shitty.

Her V Trigger isn’t gdlk, but I don’t think it needs to be considering her options. I think it works best as an extension of what she already does before V Trigger. Plus it’s the only one you can whiff cancel into as a VTC. Her V Trigger is still better than Fang’s which a lot of people consider his V Trigger useless outside of the VTC. Even really fair V Triggers like Karin’s have more real use than Fang’s.

I’ve recently picked her up again to fool around a bit and read through some of the pages here. Kinda glad most people in here are struggling with her because I have no clue what Capcom was thinking when they designed her. She’s not awful per se, but the fact remains that at least half of the cast can do more damage with simpler combos and simpler hit confirms without having to rely on some gimmicky mechanic. I’m having more success with Gief online because a) he does some damage and b) he has all his (limited) tools available at all time.

Obviously I’m not an expert SFV Juri player and probably never will be but to me it feels like I’m starting every match and every round at a disadvantage simply by design. I like the Guile matchup though, might have found a counterpick at last after getting destroyed by that clown way too often as Laura.

I love how when Infiltration talks about Juri he rattles off all the character traits and follows each one with ā€œā€¦so bad.ā€

Juri confirmed trash tier (for now).

Hopefully she will get big changes in the upcoming patch notes. Maybe our QQ on forums won’t get noticed by Capcom but when a dude like Infiltration speaks , then i hope Capcom listens.

For real it feels like Juri is still in the BETA.
