The King of Fighters XV/Yuri Sakazaki/Combos

General Notes

• Light Starter will denote a 2B > 2B > f.B starter. Assume any combos with this starter will also work off of heavy starters. Other light starters include, but not limited to:
  • 2B > 2A > f.B
• Heavy Starter will denote a cl.D. Other heavy starters include, but not limited to:
  • cl.C
  • 2C
  • 2A, 2C
• Any combo using aforementioned starters can be used after a jump in.
• Many combos will end in a normal > 623B/D ~ AC for optimum damage but will sacrifice okizeme and the corner if done in the corner. Next to those enders in the combos will have a move in parentheses that can be used instead for better oki and screen positioning, but less damage.

Combos

Meterless

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
Light Starter > 623C	168	230	0	25%	Anywhere	Basic light confirm. 623C must be inputted quickly or else it won't combo. 63214B can also be used, but the stun and advantage after is less.
Light Starter > 3D > 623C	147	210	0	25%	Anywhere	Less damage but more time to confirm. 623A does more damage but can be inconsistent at further ranges.
Heavy Starter > 63214D	173	70	0	20%	Anywhere	63214B/D does more damage when used in heavy combos. Go for a 3D combo if you need more time to confirm.
Light Starter > 214A, 2C > 623B/D ~ AC (623A)	263	220	0	40%	Corner
Heavy Starter > 236A, 623A	201	210	0	25%	Corner	Safe confirm.
(anti air) f.B > 623D ~ AC	130	30	0	15%	Anywhere	Also works off of anti air cl.C, a falling jump normal air-to-air, or anti air 2C if it hits early enough in 2C's animation. Yuri can get much more reward off of anti airs this way. Remember that the oki after landing the air throw is not very good.
214C, run, cl.D > 623B/D ~ AC (623C)	231	130	0	30%	Anywhere	Works off an anti-air 214C as well. Great damage and meter gain for meterless. cl.C can be used for more consistently as it's faster.
CD > 623D, 2D	143	170	0	20%	Non-Corner	Anywhere CD conversion. CD > 623D is not a bad sequence on block and can get you some damage if it hits. If you land close enough, a 623C is also possible.
CD > 623D ~ A/C, cl.D > 623B/D ~ AC (623C)	278	270	0	40%	Corner	CD corner combo. Delay the A/C follow-up from the first 623D as much as possible.
CD > 236C, 623C	216	300	0	30%	Near Corner	CD > 236C is also a good sequence on block. If Yuri is completely in the corner, use dp A or a normal into 623B/D ~ AC instead.

EX

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
Light Starter > 3D > 623AC	257	150	0.5	15%	Anywhere	More consistent than meterless options from 3D, but can still drop at max range.
Light Starter > 3D > 63214BD	229	150	0.5	15%	Anywhere	100% consistent and leads to a safe jump set-up. Recommended most as your light confirm.
Heavy Starter > 214AC, 623C, cl.C > 623B/D ~ AC (623A)	345	200	0.5	45%	Anywhere	Almost meter neutral. 214AC has short range and can sometimes drop from further ranges, especially if done from the 2A, 2C link. If you're not confident about your range, use the light confirm combo instead.
Light Starter > 214A, 2C > 623BD ~ AC (623AC)	288	220	0.5	25%	Corner
Heavy Starter > 214AC, 214C, 236A, cl.C > 623B/D ~ AC (623A)	405	260	0.5	45%	Corner	Be careful if you use the button hold trick for 236A, as you can accidentally charge the move, causing the combo to drop. 214AC also combos after an uncancelled CD in the corner, and leads to the exact same combo.
236C, 63214BD	211	60	0.5	10%	Corner	Reliable conversion from 236C.
CD > 623D, 63214BD	196	100	0.5	15%	Non-Corner	Very consistent.
CD > 623D, run, cl.D > 623BD ~ AC (623AC)	255	170	0.5	20%	Non-Corner
CD > 623D ~ A/C, 214AC, 214C, 236A, cl.C > 623B/D ~ AC (623A)	417	390	0.5	60%	Corner

1 Bar

Combo	Damage	Stun	Meter cost	Meter Gain	Location	notes
Light Starter > 623C > 2363214B/D	292	170	1	25%	Anywhere	Input the 623C as 6236C, then input 214B/D to input the super.
Light Starter > 3D > 623A > 2363214B/D	300	210	1	25%	Anywhere	Drops at max spacing.
Heavy Starter > 214AC, 623BD ~ A/C, cl.D > 623B/D ~ AC (623C)	403 (343)	140 (210)	1	30%	Anywhere	Yuri will switch sides after the 623BD ~ A/C, so swap your inputs accordingly.
Heavy Starter > 236A > 2363214B/D	310	130	1	20%	Anywhere	Low damage, but hit confirmable.
Light Starter > 214A, 623A > 214214A/C	303	210	1	30%	Corner	You can input 623A as 632146A, then input 214A/C for the super. Otherwise input the 623A as early as possible, then hold the A button to give yourself more time to input the super.
Heavy Starter > 214AC, 214C, 236A, 2C > 623BD ~ AC (623AC)	440 (417)	260 (190)	1	30%	Corner	The alternate 623AC extension does not work on smaller opponents. Omit the 236A if you want that ender against smaller opponents.
CD > 623D, 2363214B/D	241	100	1	15%	Non-Corner	Reliable CD combo. Only does slightly more than a normal into air throw.
CD > 623D, 623C > 214214A/C	286	180	1	30%	Midscreen	More screen position dependent conversion but more rewarding.
236CD, cl.D > 623B/D ~ AC (623C)	255 (173)	70 (140)	1	70%	Anywhere	Shatter Strike conversion. Yuri can get more complex combos if the Shatter Strike hits airborne, but they're very inconsistent based on positioning and spacing, so just aim for this conversion.
Heavy Starter > 214AC, 623BD~A/C > j.236BD, cl.D > 623B/D ~ AC	510	140	1.5	30%	Anywhere	Very strong combo for the meter spent, even stronger than her 2-2.5 bar conversions bar conversions. Landing this combo will be your primary goal as Yuri. If you're in the corner and don't want to lose the corner, just omit the last air throw.
236CD, 214AC, run, cl.D > 623B/D ~ AC (623C)	341 (262)	70 (140)	1.5	75%	Anywhere
