According to IGN, the Strong Sweet Focus skill is one of the best skills to unlock in Sifu.

"One of the best Focus attacks in the game, it takes one Focus meter so is relatively easy to pull off consistently and can trip every enemy in the game (besides Yang)," They wrote, "potentially canceling out their attacks and taking them to the floor, allowing for follow-up punches whilst they’re down.

To keep a skill after a run, players will have to purchase that skill 5 separate times. Once they've bought a skill 5 times, that skill can be kept in their roster forever.

Thankfully, progress in purchasing skills is kept whether the player resets the run or dies. So, theoretically, players can purchase stocks in permanently keeping a skill 3 times in one run and then 2 times in another and it'll count.
