Backstory

Jodie is someone who doesn't have a past, born without a name, or better yet, doesn't know his past. He just knows that he was always alone. No family. No mother. No father. No anything. When he was really young he would do anything to survive. He was very raw and almost emotionless having to deal with the struggles of the world alone, but one day he met someone named Kaige. Kaige is a very lazy and laid back guy, but he has a strong sense of justice, and likes to have fun. He was the one to give Jodie his name, and because of him, he discovered the power of "The Wielder". After going through so much together, now his precious friend is missing. Outside of the Strike Force, Jodie also works for a secret organization called "The Company" along with Kaige. Now ever since Kaige went on a reconnaissance mission and lost all contact. Jodie vows to search for his friend either dead or alive till the day he dies.

Gameplay

Jodie is a very versatile stance character who can freely choose between rushdown and footsies. He is able to trade fast moves and burst movement for massive hitboxes and powerful fatals and vice versa at will, allowing you to play Jodie however you desire, as long as it's up close and personal.

Strengths

Weaknesses

Exceptionally high damage output. - Jodie can easily defeat his opponent in 2 touches if they don't starburst. Many really good reversals. - They give him a better disadvantage state than most of the cast. Very Fast Burst Movement. - Allows him to quickly get in when he sees a chance. Exceptional Meter Build. - Giving him enough meter to do his exceptionally high damage often while continually having access to his extra movement options. Easy to use at a beginner level

His Approach is Vulnerable. - His burst movement leaves him vulnerable and wide open, if only for a brief moment, making him susceptible to reads. Lacks any midscreen or fullscreen presence. - Jodie is forced to be in the opponent's face to be effective.

Command List

Normal Moves

5A

5A Damage Guard Cancel Invul Property Cost 15 Mid 5AA, 2A, 5B, 5C, 236A, 214A, 236C - - - Startup Active Recovery Advantage Proration Juggle 6 3 6 0 (0) 5 5 Jodie takes a jab at the opponent. It's a fast poke that confirms into either continued pressure or a combo. 5AA Damage Guard Cancel Invul Property Cost 20 Mid, Air 5BB, 5C, 6C, 236A, 214A - - - Startup Active Recovery Advantage Proration Juggle 6 5 8 -1(0) 5 5 Jodie follows up with a kick.

5B

5B Damage Guard Cancel Invul Property Cost 15 Mid 2A, 5AA, 5BB, 6C, 5C - - - Startup Active Recovery Advantage Proration Juggle 10 12 13 0(0) 5 10 Jodie does a high kick. Can function as an anti-air if timed properly, but there are better moves for that. Can be done in a block string to set up a pseudo 50/50 of either cancelling into 5C and doing and high attack, or cancelling into 2A for a low attack. Achieving the right circumstances for this is difficult, but may be worth it for an extremely fast pseudo-50/50. It's safest to do this by cancelling into 5B from your 5A jab in a blockstring. 5BB Damage Guard Cancel Invul Property Cost up to 40 5 per hit, up to 8 hits Mid, Air 5BBB, 5C, 6C, 214A, 214B (Projectile Invul) 0 - 31 - - Startup Active Recovery Advantage Proration Juggle 3 24 17 -3(0) 5 5 Jodie breakdances on the opponent. This move has very, very high meterbuild, so it's a staple in every combo. Useful in blockstrings as it leads to 5BBB, which can be canceled. This move itself can be cancelled into several important pressure moves for unpredicable pressure. Some routes completely punish many forms of retaliation. It can be cancelled into 5C, but it is not recommended as you will be negative. 5BBB Damage Guard Cancel Invul Property Cost 20 Mid, Air Jump (on hit only), 5C, 6C, 236A (on hit only), 214A - - - Startup Active Recovery Advantage Proration Juggle 6 4 20 9 (-8) 5 10 Jodie kicks the opponent high in the air. This is one of jodie's main launcher in combos. It's advantage over 6C is that it builds meter rather than drain it. On block, this causes a lot of blockstun for the opponent, so you can cancel the move to take advantage of it. Twinkle cancelling it is especially powerful (and very costly) as it leads to a guaranteed 50/50.

66B	Damage Guard Cancel Invul Property Cost 40 total, 5 per hit, 8 hits Mid, Air 5BBB, 5C, 6C, Y - - - Startup Active Recovery Advantage Proration Juggle 3 24 17 -4(-7) 3 10 Jodie spin-kicks his way into the action Extremely fast startup Decent priority above him, so can function as an anti-air, though many dive kicks will beat it.

This is one of normal jodie's best moves Completely Safe Really good in combos Meaty high, so it's very good for oki The ligering hitbox and the lack of recovery makes it good for safely approaching. j.BB Damage Guard Cancel Invul Property Cost 20 High, Air IAD (on hit only), Airdash (on hit only) - - - Startup Active Recovery Advantage Proration Juggle 9 6 0 KND (+1) 0 10 Jodie follow up with a second kick that throws the opponent against the ground. Can be cancelled with IAD to continue the combo back on the ground. Make sure to always let the opponent bounce once before continuing the combo. Leaves you safe and back in a neutral state on block.

Very slow overhead that leads to plus frames. Can be used to call out counters, but is otherwise extremely reactable at frame 18. Outclassed as an overhead by his jumping moves. Sword Jodie Damage Guard Cancel Invul Property Cost 10 HA IAD, j.S.5c, 236A (if inputted as 236B for some reason) - - - Startup Active Recovery Advantage Proration Juggle 22 3 33 +12 (+9) 5 0 Jodie jumps in the air and kicks the opponent in the head, but he has a sword on him now.

To-do

Basic stuff like the landing page and navbox is in, along with some system pages. System page is complete.

Clean up and finish the rest of the character pages. Every page needs to be updated to account for changes in updates 2.0 to 2.4. Create netplay page. Update FAQ Add patch-notes from 2.1 to 2.4. Finish adding frame data to every page, and begin adding hit-boxes to every page. Glitch is currently the gold standard in the gameplay section, hitboxes aside. (Avoid doing Violet's at all costs however!) When Adding Hitboxes: Only take images from Fighter Factory. This is to keep the look of the hitboxes clean! Ensure that this chart is updated over time.
