The Spider's Lair - Juri

Nothing official, it’s just speculation, probably someone with a “source,” however credible that may be.

Oops. That’s a shame it’s not official. But back to back SFII characters seems unlikely. So the order may be different from the order they appear.

Can i use my tinfoil hat ? Ok cool then…

I still think Juri will be released around summer. She seems the most popular from the DLC list and since it’s all about the money,they will release her when people have more free time and are more willing to BUY her. Or even last to hype her even much and cash in at the end.

No hate for Capcom tbh, it’s just business.

Does Capcom actually know how popular and requested Juri is?

Juri is the best thing that ever happened to SF.

Well, for their own good i think they do know. It would be crazy for them to not follow the interests of the community.

Considering she made it to top 8 on that popularity poll back in 2013, I would say yes… at the very least it indicates a lot of people like her.

Fun fact: she was the most requested SF character to be in MvC3 when Capcom Unity held that character poll… kinda made me hope she’d end up there heh.

She really is.

Did not know this.

Who was the last Top 8 in overall popularity?
Ryu,Ken,Akuma,Sagat(God damn shotoclones)Cammy,Chun-Li,Juri and Sakura if I’m right.

Top 20 worldwide:

1 - Ryu
2 - Ken
3 - Akuma
4 - Chun Li
5 - Cammy
6 - Sakura
7 - Karin (#1 Japan)
8 - Juri
9 - Sagat
10 - Q
11 - Guile
12 - R Mika
13 - Ibuki
14 - M Bison
15 - Cody
16 - Zangief
17 - Poison
18 - Dudley
19 - Vega
20 - Blanka

This was back in 2013.

There’re two things I don’t understand.
Q beeing Top 10
And Blanka beeing in the Top 50
Also that the Top3 is 3x the same character with a different head.

I can understand Juri realy.
She’s hot,flexible,gave some people a foot fetish(not me),looks hair down realy awesome and is overall not bad looking.

It’s just strange.
If I had to rank Chun,Cammy and Juri based on how many times I saw them during SFIV.
It would be:
Juri(while 90% of them sucked)
Chun(While 80% spammed sweep and j.hp)
Cammy( I don’t have to explain anything)

In SFV I saw allmost as many Cammys as Karins(what is a lot), but barely Chun’s.

I never understand these votings or why Cammy,Karin and Ingrid allways dominate japanese polls.

Coincidentally, Juri was placed at 8 in all polls (Japan, English rankings, worldwide).

Yeah. A decent Juri online in USFIV was rare indeed.

But I don’t think people play Chun-Li in SFV because of charge inputs and difficult combos (compared to mashing MP hit confirm Ryus).

I’m maining all 3 top Street Fighter ladies in SFV :slight_smile:

Juri
Cammy
Chun-Li

As for Karin, I have no idea why she was so demanded. She’s a cool character but I wouldn’t go nuts on her.
And Ingrid… she’s too Anime, and that doesn’t belong in Street Fighter.

Karin was easily my favorite character in Alpha, and I wanted badly for her return in SFV. I loved her playstyle and her personality. Though they messed up in both regards for SFV, imo. Not surprised with her popularity in Japan though.

If you don’t understand why a character was so demanded, or voted in that poll, then you’re just not really into the character that’s all. On a basic level they were voted that high because they happen to have a large fanbase that likes the character for multitude of reasons (gameplay, character design, personality, etc), it’s as simple as it gets.

I only play Chun li and Karin but I’ve listed my opinion about all the current ladies in SFV, I think they are awesome and really fun all of them, I hope Juri to be not just fun but good also, I have a bad feeling im not gonna like her as much as I did in SF4 :s

Chun li, capcom really made a good job this time with her, she looks really beutifull specially in her battle costume and she is really good in game. She is ok in game.
Karin, I never cared about her before I just saw her as another school girl but in SFV she is really original, I love her personality, design and gameplay. She needs buffs, improve her V-Trigger to be more gimmick, she is too linear so far.
Cammy, I love her changes in SFV she looks more toned and I love her face, her gameplay is the same as SF4 im ok with that. But I think she needs her V-trigger to last 1 more special move for better mix ups, and she needs a costume with pants on :expressionless:
R.Mika, she is so much fun and really good character and she have a lot of personality, I wish she could get her butt slap back that was really cool imo. She is ok in game.
Laura, she is great adition to SFV her fireball is great, I dont remember to have seen a grappler using a fireball before, the only thing I hate from her is her CA imo it looks out of place. I cant say anything about her gameplay I havent touch her yet.

Now that I think about it, Chun-Li’s V-Trigger is a bit like Juri’s FSE. You can combo normals into other normals without the need for a counter you couldn’t before and your combo potential increases with her overhead as a combo starter while on a limited ‘rush down’ timer.

Just makes me wonder how they’re going to do Juri’s V-Trigger because Chun-Li’s is considered the best V-Trigger in the game and it’s what I expected Juri’s V-Trigger to be like and they can’t be the same. I’m starting to think Juri will have 3 bars of V-Gauge. Or maybe her FSE will be her Critical Art on a timer to allow the overpowered’ness.

So many questions :s

And to top it off. Rashid kinda has her divekick as well and her fireball ( more or less ) just lacks the ability to store them.

No rashid’s dive kick is horrible. As well as his fireballs.
