Overview

Julia makes her return in S2 under a streamer persona. As always and true to the character, Julia is quite a strong character in T7. She has very strong space control with moves like FF1, D,DF1 (commonly known as shotgun), D3 fast low poke and WR1 + on block high. So she is able to dictate the pace and force the opponent to playing her game at range with ease. On top of this space control, Julia has very strong mixups with FC df43 (Bow and arrow) giving strong okizeme and free hits at the wall with various WS mids to work with. Her combos are arguably the best in the game as she has massive damage output and basically wall to wall carry. Tacked on all this is a powerful throw game with various command grabs, most notably is her Mad Axes grab which is done with qcb f2. This move is unique in that the qcb can be “stored” so she is able to move around and then do f2 to input Mad Axes, this combined with her mobility and approach really keeps the opponent on their toes looking out for this grab to break as it’s faster and has a shorter window to break than a standard grab. Julia’s wall game is amongst the best as she has low splat starters, bow and arrow giving free hits and plenty of mid strings and moves to splat with, on top of also having a 10f wallsplat with 111 on CH. Julia does lack a fast + on hit low but it is not in her character to have one.
