Cancel the previous special into the following special.
cl.
Close to opponent.
f.
Far from opponent.
j.
Jumping move.

Starters
Keep in mind: The combos in the "Combos" section have been tested using the first starter in each category (the combos in Bold).
The other starters in each table should also work in each case, but may not.
Because Yuri has 3D, which can combo from lights and has the hitstun of a heavy normal, optimally Yuri's combos from lights or heavies are the same. In the combos listed with Starter, the damage values will represent the first two bolded starters in the table below.
Heavy Starters
Combo
Damage
Notes
2B > 2A > 3D
74
Standard low confirm. Stopping at 2A leaves you plus on block.
cl.B > 2A > 3D
89
Stronger, more precise low confirm.
2C > 3D
108
Standard heavy starter. 2C is just barely more reliable after a jump-in than cl.C, having a bit more range. At further ranges 3D will whiff on block.
2A, 2C
91
Strong link from a close 2A, providing a hit-confirm and a damaging combo from a quick button. 3D works after 2C but will leave you at too far range for some combos.
cl.D > 3D
118
Most damaging combo starter. Use when you can in punishes.

Combos
General Notes:
Many combos will end in X > 623K ~ AC for optimal damage but will sacrifice okizeme and the corner if done in the corner.
Those combos will have an alternative in parentheses next to them that can be used instead for better oki and screen positioning, but less damage.

After 214A, all you need to do is another 214A/214AC and the super will come out, i.e. "214A > 214A" will give you 214A into Super.

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.

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.

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.
