Jonathan Joestar, the protagonist of ''Phantom Blood'', the first part of ''JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure'', is a versatile character who is good at many things. He excels at extending combos and pressure using Hamon specials, the main gimmick of Hamon Style characters. His neutral shines around mid-range, where his "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#236X|Sendo Overdrive]]" projectiles reach, [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#6M|6M]] will poke, and "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#214X|The Sword of Luck and Pluck]]" will reach. Jonathan will almost always have a solid knockdown off of any hit, as if he confirms into [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#6M|6M]], he is guaranteed to get a followup. Up close, this can lead to a full combo, but can also be used to build meter with "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#5S|Hamon Breathing]]" if too far away.
His neutral shines around mid-range, where his projectiles reach, [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#6L-M|6M]] will poke, and [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#214X|214X]] will reach. Jonathan will almost always have a solid knockdown off of any hit, as if he confirms into [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#6L-M|6M]], he is guaranteed to get a [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#214X|214X]] followup. Up close, this can lead to a full combo, or can be used to build meter with [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#5S|5S]] if too far away.


On offense, Jonathan has some fairly safe options with [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#22X|22X]] or [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#236X|236X]] being used to end blockstrongs. Both options will create some distance between himself and the opponent, and [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#22X|22X]] will provide a soft launch on hit. Ending blockstrings with [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#22X|22S]] or [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#236X|236S]] also opens the opportunity to get a combo off of a stray hit in said blockstring, as both launch the opponent high into the air. For combos, Jonathan has a lot of opportunities to spend meter to extend his combos, leading him to have above average damage with the cost of sometimes running out of meter.
On offense, Jonathan has some fairly safe options, with "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#22X|Overdrive Barrage]]" or "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#236X|Sendo Overdrive]]" being used to end blockstrings: both options will create some distance between himself and the opponent, and the former will provide a soft launch on hit. Ending blockstrings with the Hamon versions of these moves also opens the opportunity to get a combo off of a stray hit in said blockstring, as both launch the opponent high into the air. Jonathan has a lot of opportunities to spend meter to extend his combos, leading him to have above average damage with the cost of sometimes running out of meter.


On defense, Jonathan has a meterless invincible reversal with [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#623X|623X]]. All of the versions have invincibility, making it very versatile in different situations. The M, H, and S variants all add a hit before the uppercut, which can either hit assists out of the way or be used to add more damage to the move. This makes it a bit more tricky for the opponent to attack on his wakeup, as there is always the chance that Jonathan uses one of the [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R#Jonathan Joestar/623X|623Xs]].
On defense, Jonathan has a reliable anti-air with "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#623X|Scarlet Overdrive]]": each version has varying speeds, making it very versatile in different situations. The M, H, and S variants all add a hit before the uppercut, which can either hit Assists out of the way or be used to add more damage to the move. Combined with the fact that the H and S versions grant Guard Points to Jonathan, this makes it a bit more tricky for the opponent to attack on his wakeup, as there is always the chance that Jonathan switches the variation of "Scarlet Overdrive" he uses to turn the tide of battle back to his favor.


*'''EX Moves''': Explain what Jonathan can do with EX Moves and Hamon.
*'''Hamon Specials''': For the cost of 0.5 HH Gauge, Jonathan can perform enhanced versions of his special moves, which will also cause Hamon Damage when used against Stone Mask characters.
*'''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#22LMH|This is my final Hamon!]]''': For the cost of all HH Gauge available (and a requirement of 1 HH Gauge), Jonathan can prepare a resurrection that replaces his special moves with their Hamon versions.

* '''Combo Extender:''' Being a Hamon user, Jonathan can spend half a bar to make a special stronger, almost always resulting in a way to extend combos and increase damage. Additionally, he can get combos off of almost any hit.
* '''Combo Starter:''' Jonathan can get combos off of almost any hit, and due to being a Hamon Style character, he can almost always extend combos with his Hamon Specials, resulting in a significant increase in damage.
* '''Scary Pressure:''' Because he is able to combo off of almost any hit, Jonathan’s pressure can be very scary the moment he begins to stagger his options on block, making it very easy to heavily punish mashing

* '''Second Chance:''' If Jonathan sets up "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#22LMH|This is my final Hamon!]]" before he is to lose the round, he will revive upon losing, giving him a second chance to even the score.

* '''Meter Hungry:''' Being a Hamon user, Jonathan can spend half a bar to make a special better, but this can start to be very costly in combos. By using just 2 EX specials in a combo, you have already spent a bar, leaving you with less resources.

* '''Gimmicky Mixups:''' Jonathan’s [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#214X|214X]] hits overhead, but is very slow, making it a bit harder to use as a mixup tool, since it is also unsafe on block.
* '''Gimmicky Mixups:''' "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jonathan Joestar#214X|The Sword of Luck and Pluck]]" is Jonathan's only grounded Overhead, but its slow speed makes it a bit harder to use as a mixup tool. This is further compounded by the fact that the move is also unsafe on block.

Introduction

Jonathan Joestar, the protagonist of Phantom Blood, the first part of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, is a versatile character who is good at many things. He excels at extending combos and pressure using Hamon specials, the main gimmick of Hamon Style characters. His neutral shines around mid-range, where his "Sendo Overdrive" projectiles reach, 6M will poke, and "The Sword of Luck and Pluck" will reach. Jonathan will almost always have a solid knockdown off of any hit, as if he confirms into 6M, he is guaranteed to get a followup. Up close, this can lead to a full combo, but can also be used to build meter with "Hamon Breathing" if too far away.

On offense, Jonathan has some fairly safe options, with "Overdrive Barrage" or "Sendo Overdrive" being used to end blockstrings: both options will create some distance between himself and the opponent, and the former will provide a soft launch on hit. Ending blockstrings with the Hamon versions of these moves also opens the opportunity to get a combo off of a stray hit in said blockstring, as both launch the opponent high into the air. Jonathan has a lot of opportunities to spend meter to extend his combos, leading him to have above average damage with the cost of sometimes running out of meter.

On defense, Jonathan has a reliable anti-air with "Scarlet Overdrive": each version has varying speeds, making it very versatile in different situations. The M, H, and S variants all add a hit before the uppercut, which can either hit Assists out of the way or be used to add more damage to the move. Combined with the fact that the H and S versions grant Guard Points to Jonathan, this makes it a bit more tricky for the opponent to attack on his wakeup, as there is always the chance that Jonathan switches the variation of "Scarlet Overdrive" he uses to turn the tide of battle back to his favor.

  • Hamon Specials: For the cost of 0.5 HH Gauge, Jonathan can perform enhanced versions of his special moves, which will also cause Hamon Damage when used against Stone Mask characters.
  • This is my final Hamon!: For the cost of all HH Gauge available (and a requirement of 1 HH Gauge), Jonathan can prepare a resurrection that replaces his special moves with their Hamon versions.
Playstyle
JJASBR Jonathan Small Icon.png Jonathan Joestar is a Hamon character who utilizes his diverse moveset to work in any situation and drive the battle in his favor.
Pros Cons
  • Jack of All Trades: Jonathan can do almost anything, whether on offense or defense. He is able to close the gap or create distance at his choosing, making anything and everything he does a dangerous option for the opponent.
  • Combo Starter: Jonathan can get combos off of almost any hit, and due to being a Hamon Style character, he can almost always extend combos with his Hamon Specials, resulting in a significant increase in damage.
  • Scary Pressure: Because he is able to combo off of almost any hit, Jonathan’s pressure can be very scary the moment he begins to stagger his options on block, making it very easy to heavily punish mashing.
  • Second Chance: If Jonathan sets up "This is my final Hamon!" before he is to lose the round, he will revive upon losing, giving him a second chance to even the score.
  • Meter Hungry: Being a Hamon Style character, Jonathan can spend half a bar to make a special move better, but this can start to be very costly in combos. By using just 2 Hamon Specials in a combo, he will have already spent a bar, leaving him with less resources.
  • Gimmicky Mixups: "The Sword of Luck and Pluck" is Jonathan's only grounded Overhead, but its slow speed makes it a bit harder to use as a mixup tool. This is further compounded by the fact that the move is also unsafe on block.
