so is daigo wrong when he said aiai is a scary player even in japan? A country that has almost every character minus a few (that aren't juri)

Also why did momochi spend time learning juri if she was not good?
No, Ai Ai is a scary player that reads players really well, but greatly benefits from how unknown the character is. Players were missing tons of punishes against Juri on Friday and it was clear they simply didn't know the matchup. I think Ai Ai is a great player, but Juri's not top tier and Ai Ai certainly hasn't proven otherwise this EVO (at least not yet - maybe there's something I'm missing and need to learn).

Has Momochi ever played Juri in tournament? If no, you have your answer (learning Juri matchup by learning Juri). If yes, then there are matchups where Juri is really great - because every character has bad matchups and counter-picking is a thing in SF4.
