She was decent in season 1. Definitely mid, lower mid at worst. Xian already almost won a major with her in then and if Majorboy was going to more tourneys he most likely would have won as well.
You just had to be better at one hit confirming in season 1. Now she has better combo routes and kunai reloads a bit faster. Other small things, but generally you could die to her nearly as fast in Season 1. The quality of life changes mainly give her better combo routes and give her a bit more health vs tanky characters like Gief.
Well yeah theyāre just not gonna fix it any ways cuz lazy.
We wonāt know till we know. I donāt mind too much about the high tier characters, just give the Season 1 high tiers more stuff and the characters who just still suck more stuff.
She was good before she got buffed, they were just stupid enough to buff her a bunch more while nerfing too fair Season 1 Chun and Nash. Ibuki honestly could have won Final Round with like half of her buffs.
Juri already got buffed, so by the time she gets buffed even more (which she probably wonāt because she honestly doesnāt need much more) sheāll be at a point where she can easily win events.
Looking at the change list she isnāt going any where. She got affected by 1 change all the cast got. At least now MP uppercut might work against crossups, but it always had a weirdness that made it just whiff when trying to cross cut since it wouldnāt always auto-correct so we will see.
Other than that her st. jab anti-air was nerfed. So legit slight nerf and small universal buff.
Thereās always season 3, friends. Weāll have to work extra hard for our wins this season, but we can win. Still hurts seeing Cammy get continuous buffs, though.
Iām fine with this. You can have the AA st.lp lol. I can anti air with a late medium DP again, Iām good.
The way Capcom worded and grouped Juri in with the heavy DP change is a little confusing, since she never had a meterless invincible DP. It makes it sound like they are giving her one, but the patch notes said the invul frames start on frame 3, so I donāt know how good it will be. It looks like we might be able to use heavy DP as an anti air too.
Yeah but why nerf Juriās St.lp and not Necalliās? Thatās an attack on Juri individually, not an attempt to lessen LP AA effectiveness across the board, because Necalliās and Giefās are the best ones.
Just seems silly to only adjust one of them and not just fix them all.
I donāt think itās fair to say itās an attack on her seeing as she escaped the initial AA jab nerf.
I believe they āadjustedā Necalliās st.lp last patch, while leaving Juriās unchanged. In fact they used very similar wording for both changes:
Necalli Season 2 jab nerf:
Increased horizontal knockback distance against airborne opponents
ā¢ Added hurtbox around his feet during the 3F following the active frames
ā¢ Decreased size of the hitbox in upwards direction
Juri Season 2.5 jab nerf:
Decreased the size of the upwards hitbox
Increased the horizontal knockback distance on mid-air hit
So you could say that Juri caught up to the rest of the AA jab nerfs. Notice earlier I put the word adjusted in quotation marks since AA jabs are still good post nerf. Juriās will most likely be the same, and if not, sheās not really hurting in the AA department anyway. Like I said earlier, Iād rather have the late DP AA from S1 than jab AA.
