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.

2B > 2A > 3D

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.

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.

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.

Because this uses a Shatter Strike, this technically costs 1 bar but gains 90% back, effectively making it a 0.5 bar combo. A little better for keeping oki.
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.

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.
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.

1000 Max Gauge combo. Not very strong, but far C > Quick Max is a strong whiff punish option so you may get some mileage out of this. The extra hitstun on 3D makes it easy to get confirms even if you're out of range for 214AC.
(QM)Starter > BC, cl.D > 3D > 214AC, 623BD ~ P > j.236BD, cl.D > 623K ~ AC
1500 Max Guage combo. Although weaker than the 1250 combo, this has better oki compared to omitting the air throw. Due to the cross-up that occurs, the common 632146C longcut for 623C to make cancelling into 214214P becomes less reliable. Try inputting 623C early and holding the button to give yourself more time to input the super. This combo is possible at 1250 if you omit the 3D after Quick Max.

1250/1500 Max Guage. Using Max combos is Yuri's best source of damage at 4 bars. 214214AC will only cancel on the last hit, so you don't need to precisely time the Climax. Just input it early and hold the CD.
