Description

Street Fighter IV series

Executed by pressing two quarter-circle forward motions and all three punch buttons, Juri's eye glows in a purplish light as she licks her lips in a sinister manner.

The move itself causes the Revenge Gauge to become a timer; until the time elapses, Juri draws upon the power of the Feng Shui Engine inside her eye and becomes capable of cancelling and chaining many more attacks than she could otherwise, which means that almost all of her attacks are combo-able.

Street Fighter V

Executed by pressing Heavy Punch and Heavy Kick simultaneously, Juri removes the eyepatch over her left eye and activates the Feng Shui Engine within, thus enhancing her fighting potential by emitting a very powerful ki energy in her attacks.

Street Fighter 6

Executed by performing two quarter-circle back motions and pressing punch button, Juri bends backwards as her Feng Shui Engine activates. Holding the button causes Juri to dash forward immediately.

Tactics

This state is sometimes referred to as her "Custom Combo mode" because Juri can create almost any combo she pleases, although not to the extent of other similar moves such as the Seiei Enbu, Soul Illusion and Genei Jin.

In Street Fighter V, this move becomes Juri's first V-Trigger. When activated, Juri neutral and pressure game is amplified drastically. As long as this move is active, Juri can use any of her Fuharenkyaku moves without having to charge or store them. Also, the Light version's projectile gains an additional hit and travels further across the screen. With this enhancement, Juri can perform damaging chain combos with Fuharenkyaku to turn the fight in her favor. However, each special attack costs Juri about 1/3 of her V-Gauge. In order to get the most out of this V-Trigger, she needs to use her special attacks wisely and effectively.

The distance covered in Juri's dashes is also increased. Additionally, Juri can perform normal move chains of equal or stronger power (i.e., LP > LK > MP > MK > HK > HP). Her offensive tools and pressure gains a boost. However, one of the main drawbacks of this V-Trigger is that it is 3-bars, meaning that Juri needs to lose a significant amount of health in order to obtain it. This has since changed in Arcade Edition, where it is now a 2-bar V-Trigger. However, her Fuharenkyaku specials consume even more V-Gauge than before.

In Street Fighter 6, Feng Shui Engine costs two bars of Super Art Gauge, making it possible to use Sakkai Fuhazan while active. The timer is now set to a minimum of 10 seconds, pausing briefly while the opponent is in hitstop or blockstop. Juri can prolong the duration with continuous pressure or converting off stray hits, further bolstering her rushdown game. The dash from the initial activation can be cancelled into any normal, letting her stay safe on block and continue combos on hit.
