Though she is great at locking down her opponents and punishing their mistakes in neutral, her block punishment is average at best and she can only lock down her opponent as well as she can read and condition them. Party Crasher is not plus so the only way she has to beat anyone mashing is with the follow-up high which can be easily ducked and launched if predicted. Her comeback potential is rather low if she can't get a good launch as her higher damage lows are not always readily available; Bow and arrow makes for a great knockdown low, but the opponent needs to be conditioned to let Julia crouch in their face long enough for it to come out, and War Drums has a tight spacing window for it to be natural on hit. Julia thrives when she has control of the match and can comfortably harass her opponent in neutral. An opponent comfortable with the match-up and willing to slow down and play defensively against her is going to have an easier time than one that is constantly trying to challenge everything she does.

Julia is a very potent rushdown character with a plethora of mixups to overwhelm and lockdown the opponent. Once she knocks the opponent down, the game is just beginning as she can snowball momentum with her powerful Okizeme options. Should the opponent survive, they'll likely find themselves at the wall where Julia's already immense pressure is further bolstered. Party Crasher is Julia's most useful and unique neutral tool, allowing her to lock down the opponent on hit or block. Once she has the opponent sitting still, she can start to run through her arsenal of tools to fish for 50/50's with or catch the opponent trying to disrespect her pressure. In spite of her somewhat stubby pokes, Julia can easily contend against her opponents buttons in neutral by using powerful long ranged whiff punishes such as df+2, 1, d+1+2, or b+1+2. She can also force her way in with Lashing Arrow, her swift step moves, f, F+4, or WR+1. Though she isn't a jack of all trades, she is very versatile and she can switch up her gameplan instantly to throw her opponent off beat and is best played this way to force mistakes from her opponent.

Though she is great at locking down her opponents and punishing their mistakes in neutral, her block punishment is average at best and she can only lock down her opponent as well as she can read and condition them. Party Crasher is not plus so the only way she has to beat anyone mashing is with the follow-up high which can be easily ducked and launched if predicted. Her comeback potential is rather low if she can't get a good launch as her higher damage lows are not always readily available; Bow and arrow makes for a great knockdown low, but the opponent needs to be conditioned to let Julia crouch in their face long enough for it to come out, and War Drums has a tight spacing window for it to be natural on hit. Julia thrives when she has control of the match and can comfortably harass her opponent in neutral. An opponent comfortable with the match-up and willing to slow down and play defensively against her is going to have an easier time than one that is constantly trying to challenge everything she does.
