Introduction
- This article is about Diego Brando's base incarnation, primarily known as "Diego". For information about his alternate incarnation, see Alternate World Diego.
A primary antagonist in Steel Ball Run, the seventh part of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Diego Brando is a genius British jockey who collects Holy Corpse parts around the stage to augment his offensive and defensive prowess. To assist in his goal, Diego exhibits potent rushdown tools through the powers of his Stand, Scary Monsters.
In neutral, Diego makes use of his quick movement speed, two mid-range pokes in 6M and 6H, versatile jumping normals, and a long-range air-to-air in the aerial version of "Useless, useless!". For offense, Diego has the Aerial Chain Beat ability which, along with the aforementioned "Useless, useless!", serve as strong mix-up tools. On top of this, Diego boasts an extremely oppressive vortex in which he is flexible with mix-up options.
For defense, Diego has his HHA, which changes his moveset and grants him unlimited Super Armor while it lasts. Other options Diego can use are "Gouge" and "Useless, useless!", with the former allowing Diego to avoid Throws and high profile certain moves (and being a safe blockstring ender in the Light version), and the latter possessing lower-body invincibility during startup. These traits become even stronger with two Holy Corpse parts, which grant these two moves full invincibility.
- Mounted: While on top of Silver Bullet, all of Diego's attacks deal Chip Damage, and he cannot be affected by the Bind and Crumple hit effects. This comes at the cost of losing access to Stylish Evade, Stylish Guard, and Throw.
- Holy Corpse Parts: Diego can pick up the Holy Corpse parts, gaining different blessings with each part obtained.
- Dinosaur Kinetic Vision: While Dismounted, Diego has access to a Super Jump ability that can be cancelled from normals on hit or block, giving him unique combo extensions and allowing for some situational mix-ups.
- Aerial Chain Beat: While Dismounted, Diego can chain his aerial attacks, giving him unique combos and confirms along with solid mix-up potential.
- Scary Monsters!: Diego has the ability to transform into a dinosaur, drastically changing his kit and granting him unique properties for a limited period of time.
Diego Brando is a Mounted character who collects Holy Corpse parts in order to smother the opponent with straightforward but difficult-to-contest rushdown. | |
Pros | Cons |
|
|
Holy Corpse
Owing to his status as a Steel Ball Run character, whenever Diego is one of the combatants, three parts of the Holy Corpse will spawn over time around the stage. Diego can collect these parts by crouching on top of them while Dismounted; Holy Corpse parts collected will be carried over between rounds. Each part collected provides Diego with a buff that lasts until said part is lost via entering a knockdown state, which drops the most recent part collected. Only 3 Holy Corpse parts will spawn during the match, so if two Steel Ball Run characters (himself, Johnny, Gyro, AW Diego, or Valentine) happen to face each other, they'll be forced to fight for them.
For Diego, the buffs applied are the following:
- One: Diego gains access to "Are you ready?!".
- Two: All of Diego's special moves are enhanced:
- Both versions of "Gouge" gain more HH Gauge, along with full invincibility.
- "Are you ready?!" gains increased damage, as well as increased launch height.
- All versions of "Useless, useless!" gain full invincibility.
- All versions of "Dinosaurs!" gain increased damage.
- As Scary Monsters, "USHAAAAAAAA!" and "Above you!" gain increased damage.
- Three: Diego's overall HH Gauge gain is increased.
