:''This article is about Joseph Joestar's ''Stardust Crusaders'' incarnation, primarily known as "Old Joseph". For information about his ''Battle Tendency'' incarnation, see [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Joseph Joestar|Joseph Joestar]].'' | |||
As the grandfather of [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Jotaro Kujo (Part 3)|Jotaro Kujo]] in ''Stardust Crusaders'', the third part of ''JoJo's Bizarre Adventure'', Joseph Joestar puts his life experience in play by combining the powers of his Hamon mastery and his Stand, Hermit Purple. Said experience is reflected in his focus on a mid-range/neutral presence, though he is no slouch at close range, either. | |||
In Stand Off, Old Joseph makes use of his deceptively long-ranged normals to poke and close in on the opponent, with notable examples in [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#5M|5M]], [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#2M|2M]], and [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#5H|5H]]. He also carries strong offensive tools to frustrate the opponent, such as the S version of "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#236X|Hamon Overdrive]]" (a powerful plus-on-block, multi-hitting, forward-moving attack) and a strong trap in "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#214X|Coal Tar]]". As an esoteric option, Old Joseph can use "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#63214S|Cunning Tactician]]" to discourage attempts to harm him, forcing opponents to be wary of its potential threat. | |||
A rarity for Stand characters, Old Joseph's mobility doesn't change with Hermit Purple summoned, a fact he takes advantage of to control the space in front of him with incredible tools such as [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#Stand 2H|s.2H]] or "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#Stand 236M|Hermit Purple!]]" (and its devastating "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#Stand 236M-6S|Solar Energy Hamon!]]" follow-up), both of which possess some of his longest range yet much smaller hurtboxes than expected. He also gains a strong neutral tool in [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#Stand 5H|s.5H]]: a multi-hitting, advancing normal that pushes opponents far enough on block to allow for disengaging pressure safely. Lastly, his kit in this mode is rounded out by a strong anti-air in "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#Stand 236L|Now I gotcha!]]", a unique OTG combo extender in "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#Stand 236H|You gotta stand on your own!]]", and a long-ranged command grab in "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#Stand 63214X|Take a STAND for it!]]". | |||
Despite all of his strengths, Old Joseph has difficulties to open up opponents who are not intimidated by "Hamon Overdrive" and will not risk taking their turn back after he disengages. Should his strong neutral get breached, he can find himself in serious trouble both due to a lack of fast scramble options (with his fastest normals, [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#5L|5L]] and [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#Stand 5L|s.5L]], having slower startup than most) and unreliable defensive tools (the blindspots from "Cunning Tactician", along with a lack of invincible moves beyond his Counter [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#Heart Heat Attack|HHA]] and a slow [[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#Great Heat Attack|GHA]]), making certain specific situations quite hard to deal with. Finally, some of Old Joseph's strongest blockstrings feature gaps between moves, forcing him to hitconfirm or pick his moment to strike so as to prevent his gameplan from falling apart. | |||
All in all, Old Joseph is a force to be reckoned with and a great pick for players who want a stable, strong character. He may not have the cunnings of his younger self and may be getting on in years, but just like wine, he becomes better with age. | |||
*'''Fighting on the run!''': Old Joseph is one of the only characters that is able to run both forward and backwards, giving him more maneuverability than most characters. | |||
*'''Hamon Specials''': For the cost of 0.5 HH Gauge, Old Joseph can perform enhanced versions of certain special moves, which will also cause Hamon Damage when used against Stone Mask characters. | |||

| pros = | | pros = | ||
* ''' | * '''Range:''' Old Joseph's attacks, even without Hermit Purple, possess larger hitboxes and forward movement than expected. With Hermit Purple involved, Old Joseph also possesses some of the longest non-projectile reach. | ||
* ''' | * '''Meter Efficient:''' Not only does Old Joseph not require much meter to deal respectable damage, he can refund most (if not all) of the meter he uses in combos or even end up very meter positive. | ||
* ''' | * '''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#22S|Hamon Breathing]]:''' Despite being a Stand User, Old Joseph can refill his HH Gauge not unlike Hamon characters, granting him a way to generate resources. | ||
|cons = | |cons = | ||
* ''' | * '''Predictable:''' Old Joseph's moveset doesn't allow for much variance from his gameplan, making him easy to read. In addition, his pressure becomes much weaker while in Stand On due to not having many safe options to end blockstrings with, as well as being unable to use Stand Rush. | ||
* ''' | * '''Slow:''' In compensation for their range, Old Joseph's attacks possess rather high recovery, making them dangerous on whiff. | ||
* '''Self-Damage:''' The tar left behind by "[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: All-Star Battle R/Old Joseph Joestar#214X|Coal Tar]]" can also affect Old Joseph, making it very easy to turn the tables and end up in an uncomfortable position. | |||

*The second hit launches and causes hard knockdown. | |||

'''L version:''' | |||
*Old Joseph stays in place upon grabbing the drum. | |||
*Leaves the opponent the closest to Old Joseph, leading to Cinematic Taunt combos with the tar. | |||

'''M version:''' | |||
*Old Joseph takes a step forward upon grabbing the drum. | |||
*Leaves the opponent further away from Old Joseph. | |||
**While it can lead into Cinematic Taunt combos like the L version, walking forward slightly may be needed in midscreen scenarios. | |||
---- | |||
'''H version:''' | |||
*Old Joseph takes two steps forward upon grabbing the drum. | |||
*Leaves the opponent the furthest away from Old Joseph. | |||
*Doesn't lead into Cinematic Taunt combos, unlike the other two versions. In return, it acts as a great way to place the tar between Old Joseph and the opponent. | |||

Introduction
- This article is about Joseph Joestar's Stardust Crusaders incarnation, primarily known as "Old Joseph". For information about his Battle Tendency incarnation, see Joseph Joestar.
As the grandfather of Jotaro Kujo in Stardust Crusaders, the third part of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, Joseph Joestar puts his life experience in play by combining the powers of his Hamon mastery and his Stand, Hermit Purple. Said experience is reflected in his focus on a mid-range/neutral presence, though he is no slouch at close range, either.
In Stand Off, Old Joseph makes use of his deceptively long-ranged normals to poke and close in on the opponent, with notable examples in 5M, 2M, and 5H. He also carries strong offensive tools to frustrate the opponent, such as the S version of "Hamon Overdrive" (a powerful plus-on-block, multi-hitting, forward-moving attack) and a strong trap in "Coal Tar". As an esoteric option, Old Joseph can use "Cunning Tactician" to discourage attempts to harm him, forcing opponents to be wary of its potential threat.
A rarity for Stand characters, Old Joseph's mobility doesn't change with Hermit Purple summoned, a fact he takes advantage of to control the space in front of him with incredible tools such as s.2H or "Hermit Purple!" (and its devastating "Solar Energy Hamon!" follow-up), both of which possess some of his longest range yet much smaller hurtboxes than expected. He also gains a strong neutral tool in s.5H: a multi-hitting, advancing normal that pushes opponents far enough on block to allow for disengaging pressure safely. Lastly, his kit in this mode is rounded out by a strong anti-air in "Now I gotcha!", a unique OTG combo extender in "You gotta stand on your own!", and a long-ranged command grab in "Take a STAND for it!".
Despite all of his strengths, Old Joseph has difficulties to open up opponents who are not intimidated by "Hamon Overdrive" and will not risk taking their turn back after he disengages. Should his strong neutral get breached, he can find himself in serious trouble both due to a lack of fast scramble options (with his fastest normals, 5L and s.5L, having slower startup than most) and unreliable defensive tools (the blindspots from "Cunning Tactician", along with a lack of invincible moves beyond his Counter HHA and a slow GHA), making certain specific situations quite hard to deal with. Finally, some of Old Joseph's strongest blockstrings feature gaps between moves, forcing him to hitconfirm or pick his moment to strike so as to prevent his gameplan from falling apart.
All in all, Old Joseph is a force to be reckoned with and a great pick for players who want a stable, strong character. He may not have the cunnings of his younger self and may be getting on in years, but just like wine, he becomes better with age.
- Fighting on the run!: Old Joseph is one of the only characters that is able to run both forward and backwards, giving him more maneuverability than most characters.
- Hamon Specials: For the cost of 0.5 HH Gauge, Old Joseph can perform enhanced versions of certain special moves, which will also cause Hamon Damage when used against Stone Mask characters.
