After first being introduced in Super Street Fighter IV, Juri has quickly cemented herself as something of a fan favourite. This is most likely owing to her brutal, sadistic nature as she embarks on an unrelenting goal of utterly obliterating her opponents.

While the previous titles saw her motivated by a revenge campaign against long-time series villain M. Bison, without that fuelling her, who knows what she is capable of now?

She previously served as an antagonistic underling for Seth, but has since become a character in her own right, and a terrifying force to be reckoned with.

In Street Fighter 6, Juri specialises in getting up close and personal with opponents, with her kicks doing most of the work. She has a terrifying sadistic streak that should keep her opponents on their toes.

Her kicks can leave opponents open. Starting with the small kicks to knock foes off-kilter, you should follow up with the stronger combos and kicks once their guard is down.

Juri also has the potential to buff herself with her Fuha stock, allowing her to enhance her close-range sequences and combos. Building this up encourages an unrelenting playstyle, so don’t be afraid to keep those combos going and knock your opponents out of the air.
