| What Kind of Character Are They? | ・Foul Play allows him to swap spaces with any ally 3 spaces away ・Refined Honorable Blade grants Preempt Pulse and Scowl to allies within 3Rx3C, grants Yuri +1 movement, bonus stats, true damage, true damage reduction, Preempt Pulse and Scowl. |
Yuri Skills at 5★
|
Might: 14 Range: 2 Enables 【Canto (2)】. Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of turn, unit can move 1 extra space. (That turn only. Does not stack.) At start of combat, if foe's HP ≥ 50%, grants Atk/Spd+6 to unit during combat. Effect: 【Dagger 7】 |
|
Range: 3 Unit and target ally swap places. |
|
Cooldown Count = 2 Boosts damage dealt by 50%. |
|
Grants HP+5, Atk/Spd/Def/Res+2. If unit is 5★, level 40, a Legendary or a Mythic Hero, and unit's stats total less than 175, treats unit's stats as 175 in modes like Arena. If unit is 5★, level 40, not a Legendary or a Mythic Hero, and unit's stats total less than 180, treats unit's stats as 180 in modes like Arena. (Higher-scoring opponents will appear. Stat total calculation excludes any values added by merges and skills.) |
|
At start of turn, if Special cooldown count is at its maximum value, grants Special cooldown count-1. |
Yuri Best IVs

| Atk (11) |

◯ = Stat gains +4 with a superboon, ✕= Stat goes down by -4 with a superbane, - = No assets or flaws
| See the IV Checker for All Units | Trait Fruits—How to Change IVs |
When using an Ascendant Floret, we recommend getting the next superboon if it fits the hero. If not, consider what stat your hero needs most.
+Spd/-Def
The best IVs for Yuri are +Spd and -Def.
He has a superboon in Spd and will effectively have 45 Spd at max lvl, making him a hard-hitting speedy unit.
Yuri's Def isn't very high, so it's safe to take it as his bane.
+Spd for a +10 Merge
The same reasons apply above if you want to merge Yuri to +10.
At 10 merges, he has an insane 50 Spd, which will allow him to double most units in the game.
Yuri Best Builds

How to Use, Explanation

Fury 4

Fury 3

|
How to Use, Explanation
This build maximizes Atk and Spd to deal as much damage as possible. The recoil from Fury skills brings Yuri into Desperation range quickly. Fury 4 can be replaced by Atk/Spd Push 4, or Fury 3 if on a budget.
Yuri Best Weapon Refine
Effect of Yuri's Refined Weapon
| Exclusive Weapon Effect from Refining (Special Effect Type) | |
|---|---|
| SP: 400 | |
| Might: 14 Range: 2 HP: Enables 【Canto (2)】. Accelerates Special trigger (cooldown count-1). At start of turn, unit can move 1 extra space. (That turn only. Does not stack.) If unit initiates combat or foe's HP ≥ 50% at start of combat, grants Atk/Spd+6 and Def/Res+5, and deals damage = 20% of unit's Spd (excluding area-of-effect Specials). Effect:【Dagger 7】 For allies within 3 rows or 3 columns centered on unit, grants Atk/Spd+5 and Special cooldown count-1 to ally before ally's first attack during combat, and also, if ally initiates combat and foe's attack can trigger foe's Special, inflicts Special cooldown count+1 on foe before foe's first attack during combat (cannot exceed foe's maximum Special cooldown). If unit initiates combat or foe's HP ≥ 50% at start of combat, grants bonus to unit's Atk/Spd/Def/Res = number of allies within 3 rows or 3 columns centered on unit × 2, + 5 (max 11), neutralizes foe's bonuses to Spd/Def, reduces damage from foe's attacks by 7 (excluding area-of-effect Specials), and grants Special cooldown count-1 to unit before unit's first attack during combat, and also, if unit initiates combat and foe's attack can trigger foe's Special, inflicts Special cooldown count+1 on foe before foe's first attack during combat (cannot exceed foe's maximum Special cooldown).  ：500  ：200 |

We recommend the Special Effect Refine for Honorable Blade
Refined Honorable Blade has built-in 【Canto (2)】 and grants Yuri +1 movement at the start of each turn.
Allies within 3 rows or 3 columns are granted Atk/Spd+5, a Preempt Pulse effect, and a Scowl effect.
In combat, Honorable Blade neutralizes the foe's Spd/Def bonuses and grants Yuri Akt/Spd+6, Def/Res+5, up to Atk/Spd/Def/Res+11 based on number of allies within 3 rows or 3 columns, bonus true damage equal to 20% of Yuri's Spd, +7 bonus true damage reduction, a Preempt Pulse effect, and a Scowl effect.
This weapon refine provides multiple upgrades over the base version and is worth refining if Yuri is a staple in your parties.

Yuri Roles, Strengths, and Weaknesses
Yuri Roles
Yuri is a ranged physical attacker (range = 2). Therefore, when not accounting for the Weapon Triangle, the amount of damage he deals will be equivalent to his Atk minus the foe's Def stat.
Yuri Strengths
Insane plays can be made with Foul Play
Yuri's insane range and his Foul Play assist is shown here when he targets Anna to swap with.
Yuri's Assist skill allows him to swap spaces with any ally on the map 3 spaces away.
This is an insane skill that has opportunity for a lot of plays because Yuri can either retreat to safety, pull an ally back to safety, or swap in front of a dancer, allowing him another action.
Refined Honorable Blade provides offense, defense, and support
Refined Honorable Blade has built-in 【Canto (2)】 and grants Yuri +1 movement at the start of each turn.
Allies within 3 rows or 3 columns are granted Atk/Spd+5, a Preempt Pulse effect, and a Scowl effect.
In combat, Honorable Blade neutralizes the foe's Spd/Def bonuses and grants Yuri Akt/Spd+6, Def/Res+5, up to Atk/Spd/Def/Res+11 based on number of allies within 3 rows or 3 columns, bonus true damage equal to 20% of Yuri's Spd, +7 bonus true damage reduction, a Preempt Pulse effect, and a Scowl effect.
Refined Honorable Blade isn't as impactful as the powerful metagame weapons, but it provides enough to make Yuri useful on the battlefield whether he is attacking enemies or supporting his allies.
Yuri Weaknesses
No Close Counter means he is vulnerable to melee units
Yuri does not have any Close Counter in his kit and his Def is lower than his Res, which means that all it takes is a melee physical damage unit to walk up to him and say hello.

Inheriting C Duel Infantry 4 and Time's Pulse 3
Yuri can be used to inherit C Duel Infantry 4 and Time's Pulse 3.
As he is the first unit to have C Duel Infantry 4, it's not possible to get all modes of this skill and Time's Pulse 3 off of one copy.
You can, however, get C Duel Infantry 1-3 from Loki, then inherit the rest off Yuri.

Anonymous@Game8 about 3 yearsYes, you can move first and then use Foul Play to swap, for a total of up to 6 spaces, and then Canto for 2 more. The wording we placed is for Foul Play itself, as the skill only allows swapping 3 spaces away.

"This build abuses Foul Play to deactivate traps in Aether Raids, and then using Canto to retreat to safety." I don't see how this is possible. If he uses foul play, he swaps with a teammate, meaning the teammates would already be on the trap. Maybe it means he deactivate traps with his movement, then uses foul play+ canto to retreat? Otherwise,,i can't make, sense of it.
