What happen to the other Jojo figths that where gona be posted
Anyway I can’t wait for more JoJo action.
OMG FMJ is the truth!!! (and I hardly ever give this guy respect!)
Anyway Vampire Savior is definitely tourney worthy, it was at last year’s SBO in Japan.
The reason it’s not at evo2k4 is cause it’s not popular in USA… hell I’m very surprised VF4 still gets considered as it only draws like 30 ppl.
Anyway popularity isn’t the sole factor. While, ahem… “less-than-perfect” games like CVS2, Tekken4 and Soul Calibur 2 turn up at evo, DOA or MK don’t seem to have much chance. It’s also down to the organisers (Cannons) too, although popularity is also a big factor in getting them to agree to host certain games.
Although ppl would argue Tekken4 didn’t deserve to be at evo or SBO either, it’s kind of nice to have it being replaced by Tekken5 in a smooth transition
And yeah it’s all about having tournies in BYOC room, just remember to bring your own TVs and consoles (they have spare TVs there already, but only for casual games, not tournies).

Thx man I already seen them good stuff I migth add.
how does the combo works ??
with stand mode , it is an easy chain combo …
without stand …the combo is like link , timing ivery strict , how come they can link in a stand attacks after a no-stand normal link combos ??
does anyone know where I can download Jojo match vids?
There are some in ComboVideos.com archives. I actually have a couple Japanese tournaments, a few combo videos, and a few match videos of JoJo’s. Too bad I don’t know wtf I’m witnessing, lol.
I will say this though, having skimmed through this old ass thread: JoJo’s is the shit. I watched a couple guys at Evo tearing it up, it was very fun to watch. JoJo’s for Evo 2k6!
I’m specifically looking for Jojo.relax match vids because some idiot deleted all the Jojo.relax vids I had.
I’ll try combovideos.com
JoJo= thoroughly broken, at combovideos watch the meikyokusei ( sp? ) video.
Vampire = highly tourney worthy. watch the matches at The Beast Daigo, Daigo’s Bishamon is something to be afraid of.
seeing this thread was the straw that broke the camels back. it made me break down and order jojo’s bizzare adventure online for 10 bucks. thats my hard-earned money you bastards!
The stand off-on combos aren’t as hard as you guys think.
The combos in the combo vids you are witnessing are using a glitch that is impossible to preform in match play.
The game is technially broken but no more broken than mvc2 or garou.
It is playable and the combos require more precision than any other game out there (if you want decent damage).
I can explain how to preform whatever you ask. I played this game since day 1 of the arcade release in america.
Just because of the meikyokusei(sp) vid doesn’t mean the game isn’t tourney-worthy. By that logic MVC2 isn’t tourney worthy either, because Meikyokusei has 10 volumes of glitch vids on it!!
—and why do certain people seem like they have an agenda of shitting on a very cool cult fighter like JoJo’s. U know we’ll never see this fighter at a tourney anyway, no need to shit on the hardcore who actually play it.
Everyone says Vampire is balanced, but the Japanese can make any game look balanced. If that shit were popular over here, everyone would declare Bishimon “broken”.
Jojo’s is that shit. More people should play. Fear the Chaca.
I thought the keikyo site was down. Either way, where could I find some Jojo matches/combs?
**you know in all honesty i’m just not really concerned with the old games anymore. we have three great new games coming out, kof 11, ngbc, and fist of the north star. i would much rather see these three added to the scene rather than trying to bring back some classics. granted they are great games, i love darkstalkers, i just hope to see the new titles especially kof 11 added to the tournement scene.
ABASI!**
I love it how people still think “the world” is broken and JoJo combo vids are good examples of why the game is “broken”.
THANK YOU!
why arent the srk experts out trying to break NBC, its hit US shores.
i love the game, been playing it at least an hour a day everyday. everyone is doable and top tier isnt really that far from mid tier unlike some more recent games.
this shit should be getting played!! (at least to find out if its worthy).
As much as we ant to see it… It won’t happen.
It’s not becasue they are dead or bad titles. It’s because noone plays them and those that do are so spread out that noone would risk holding an event for them.
The only possible scenario that would make it possible is if JoJo’s or VS/DS side game tournies attract more players than one of the main games like 3S or #R at evo or other regional events.
If you see the OVA (jojo movie) you’ll appreciate the game alot more. It’s really kick ass and I really like how unique the characters are.
For example the ones using the anubis stand: B. Polnareff, Chaca, Kan all have a counter move. If you counter a move then the character will “memorize” it for the entire fight. You see this was the stand’s power in the comic, but I’m sure must wonder what “memorize” means. Well you get a free guard cancel whenever you block that move you countered which means you can basically try to counter a move they use alot then severely alter their gameplans (you will get a sword icon over your bar for every different move you countered and memorized) Chaca also has a super (very hard to combo - uncomboable and very little invincibility iirc) that if he hits you with it he gets “Learned All” message which means he can guard cancel out of everything (not sure about projectiles) until he gets hit which at that point it wears off and also makes you forget any moves you “memorized” beforehand.
The whole game has alot of unique moves and characters. Alot of unique game play and even the basics are pretty unique. The stand system is kind of like a guard crush meter but it also depletes while you are in hit stun so you can extend comboes if you know when you will stand crush them. It also has low jumps but in a very retarded way. For starters you can block during them, you can also do your double jump if you can do that in a normal jump (usually characters can only double jump when they have their stands on) and you can do special moves and probably supers during them.
Still a great game and as I said alot of characters are unique. The little red riding hood girl has levels where she levels up her magnetic attacks, and not all characters have stands. Alot of people probably would like the fact that you can’t chip someone to death and while you have your stand out you cannot receive chip damage. There is also snk style rolls but you usually can only do them while your stand is off (stand on and stand off both have their own benifits) only Joseph can roll with his stand on. This game even has push blocking, they really went all out with the system mechanics.
IMO Dio definantly must be broken, he has the high damage world comboes (if you can land them) which involve super knife throw > tractor (with 4 levels you can easily do it reliably and get 50% life off). Also his muda muda (tnt punches) has insane reach and does ridiculous stand meter damage on hit or block. He even has a ground based infinite if I’m not mistaken (very hard to pull off). He also has eye beams (unblockable) that hit most crouching opponents that have their stand on. Shadow dio is pretty wicked in this respect because he also has chippy knife throws as a regular move, and with eye beams to discourage you to turn on your stand he might get some chip damage off of you with these (he also has a really ridiculous version (i believe jab version) knife throw which pretty much hits everywhere).
Advol also seems pretty powerful with his seemingly high priority moves, dp’s, fireballs and other random ish.
Regular Polnareff seems pretty damn poor to me, does anyone know if he’s any good at all? His only super gets major damage scaling when comboed and is pretty short range (and unsafe on block). Has charge moves and button tap x3 moves and very few good comboes. B. Polnareff seems to shit all over him (he also gets a really good version of a thousand pricks (button tap move) that puts you in frame advantage, but it’s not only good it’s also changed to a command move (qcf+s) on top of that)
How is this different than the other SF games?
A good start would be to increase the attendence for those games from 0 to some number greater than 0. Theres no real need to beat out other games, it’s not a competition.
