Lily is a brand-new fighter appearing in Street Fighter 6. She is the third playable member of the Thunderfoot Tribe, being kin to Street Fighter 2’s Thunder Hawk and Street Fighter Alpha 3’s Juli. Lily’s playstyle is an amalgamation of the two, being an unorthodox grappler that has considerable speed.
While Lily has a faster approach than a traditional Street Fighter 6 grappler like Zangief, she still is going to be outpaced by true rush-down fighters. To make up for the greater range, Lily also has less overall damage per hit. Instead, she makes up for it by having fair to long linking combo strings.
This is highly telegraphed, so players want to wait until the enemy is on the defensive or otherwise busy. Specifically using the medium input version will follow up with a fast swing to help surprise approaching enemies, and can be even stronger as an Overdrive.
Windclad will automatically be spent when using various special moves: Condor Dive, Tomahawk Buster, and Condor Spire. It is important to both have enough stacks for a full combo, but also do not waste Windclad on missed or blocked attacks. Each move gets a different benefit: Condor Dive hits more times, Tomahawk Buster will be faster, and Condor Spire is extremely safe against Street Fighter 6 enemies who favor blocking.
Lily’s clubs allow her to breach through the enemy’s defenses, and punish them with a powerful throw. The original special move is Mexican Typhoon, which has a full 360-degree rotation input. But, this move can be simplified when using Street Fighter 6’s new “Modern” input option. Using the light attack version increases range, but greatly lowers damage.
