That's part of Juri's game. She was even more unpredictable in SF4, and i loved it.



But since her hcf.k changed so dramatically, she lost much of her zoning potential and unpredictability, which is a shame. At least she has a good anti-air now.



Training mode with level 8 dummy is your beat friend.

All of Juri's fierce attacks and medium attacks (except crouching MP) are punishable on block if you start your punish with a 3-frame move. With Balrog, that means using his LK MK HK target combo to punish.

The majority of her special moves are also punishable on block.

Most of her moves come out extremely quick so you don't want to try to crush counter them; you just have to sit back and block, waiting to counter attack.

I'm slowly working my way up the rankings playing around 10 to 20 ranked matches a week. This was my most interesting bout from last night:



I have a feeling that the climb from 1500 to 2000 LP is going to be much tougher than the run from 1000 to 1500 LP.

Looks like Urien is coming out in September.

The update today also changed the rage quitting system to where 3 disconnects in a 24 hour period will make you lose 1,000 LP and get you temporarily locked out of ranked online mode for a day.

You can unlock every character by just playing the game, earning in-game currency called Fight Money and using it to buy the characters.



Alternatively, you can buy then with real money if you're not into grinding (and believe me, you'll need to play a lot to earn the amount of fight money needed to unlock every character)

Crouching medium kick x2 into V Trigger activation is a great combo starter, but that second medium kick is -6 frame disadvantage on block (the first hit is -2), so you have to have good button discipline and make sure not to spam the second medium kick if the first one is blocked.

Balrog's comeback potential is huge in this game because of how quickly he can get someone into a dizzy state and how easily he can hit confirm into his critical art for massive damage.

I need to start playing this game and carving the scrub off of me. You guys ever Battle Lounge?
