Iori is a highly versatile character that can do just about anything, but leans towards rushdown and mixups due to his great access to hard knockdowns. At further ranges, he has a fireball and a good poke as his main tools, but Iori really starts to shine when he lands a hit into his hard knockdown rekka.
He has plenty of mixup options, like a good crossup, a command grab he can combo out of, good low confirms, and an overhead. Most of these options will allow him to combo into rekka again and repeat the situation.
On defense, he has access to a great DP for reversals and anti-airs, and a good DM that can low-profile and anti-air well. Iori's main weakness is that he lacks certain kinds of ground moves, so his grounded poking game can feel a bit lacking. Notably, his sweep, while a great whiff punisher, is unsafe on block, and his standing B isn't the long and fast mid poke that some other characters have.
Movelist
Changes from Previous Versions
98 to 98UM
Normals:
2A hurtbox is taller
2B hurtbox is taller, so some projectiles can no longer be low-profiled
Specials:
623C now hits consistently, even against airborne opponents
The time that the hurtbox for
214P
214P becomes lower is reduced by 3 frames
632146P
632146P startup is 3 frames faster, but invincibility frames are reduced
Supers:
2363214P
2363214P is no longer a hard knockdown
2141236P
2141236P changed: now deals damage at once when it hits, but none when the opponent is stunned; also reduced stunned time
98UM to 98UMFE
Extra mode step dash distance moved is longer
Specials:
632146P
632146P has more recovery after the throw, so it's harder to connect attacks afterwards

The first two hits are mids, and the third one hits overhead.
Iori's main combo special. The light version combos from lights and the heavy version from heavies.
Causes hard knockdown and gives Iori plenty of time to set up whatever offense he wants afterwards.
All 3 hits of both the A and C Rekka are Negative and unsafe on block point-blank. At further ranges, they are still unsafe, but the opponent will need a fairly fast long-range move to punish.
The A Rekkas knock the enemy back a bit on hit.
The full C rekkas make them land right next to Iori with a hard knockdown, setting up a few wakeup options.

Iori does a leap forwards and hits with his flames.
B version travels a shorter distance than D version.
B version can be cancelled into his qcb+P on contact whereas D version is cancellable into any special move.
Unsafe on block, and since his qcb+P is also not safe on block there's no real way to reduce risk. However
dp+D, qcf+A
623D, 236A is a fairly safe option.
Can go over some lows.
Has a little bit of startup invincibility.
Main use is for baiting guard cancel CD. Just cancel your normal into
dp+D and go into qcf+A
623D and go into 236A if there is no Guard Cancel. If there is a Guard Cancel you can react and either cancel into Maiden Masher or Rekkas.

Iori grabs hold of the opponent and shoves them behind him.
A command grab that lets Iori follow up with a combo afterwards.
Has some startup invincibility, but not all the way to the active frames.
Good for mixups, as it lets him do a full combo afterwards that leads to another mixup.
Has longer startup than most command grabs while also not being fully invincible, but despite this it's still good.

Iori sends out a big blast of flames.
The A version only reaches a bit in front of Iori, while the C version travels a bit more than halfscreen.
On hit, the opponent gets frozen in place and Iori gets a followup combo.
This move hitting is one of the few ways you can actually combo into qcf,hcb+AC.
The projectile's size is only as big as his
qcf+P
236P, so it can be jumped over and even hopped over with good timing.
