Killer Instinct (2013)/Jago

Overview Strategy Matchups Resources

Introduction

Jago PLACEHOLDER CHARACTER STORY

Jago Jago is the main Shoto character of KI, featuring a fireball, dragon punch, and tatsu equivalent. These tools allow him to play a classic midrange fireball/dp game, but Jago also comes equipped with a few extras not usually seen in your typical SF shoto. Chargeable fireballs that you can dash cancel while charging, a very long range overhead, a throw with potent oki attached, and abundant plus frames all give Jago an offensive toolkit characteristic of KI. Topping it all off is his Instinct, which changes his standard fireball into a double fireball, increases his frame advantage even further, and most importantly rewards fireballs on hit with healing, making Jago the only character in the game where three instincts in one game is not uncommon. Whether you plan to win by a war of attrition in the neutral game or you just want to get in that ass and run offense, Jago rewards players who dedicate themselves to the way of the warrior with an exceptionally fun take on a classic FG character archetype.

Character

Strengths

Weaknesses

Well Rounded: Jago's toolkit comes with good options at close, mid, and long range. While not the most outstanding at any of these ranges, the fact that he is able to fight at all of them means Jago is rarely helpless anywhere on the screen. Healer Instinct: Jago takes notes from SF4 Elena of all places. While in instinct, his fireballs gain health regen, and it's not insignificant health regen either. Popping instinct early into the first lifebar and landing some optimized healing combos can put Jago back to near full health, all of which counts towards a second, third, or even (purely) theoretical fourth instinct. Defensive Powerhouse: Scroll down and look at the damage H DP does on CH, and it's also 3f. Wind Kick's frame 1 low invul also can see some niche use. Plus Frames Abound: With most of his lights, close MK, and M/H laser sword being plus, Jago would already have all that he'd need to be somewhat threatening up close. The real star of the show is fHK, which advances forward and is +2. If the opponent doesn't have meter to SC (or just doesn't SC), then Jago can keep them in constant frame disadvantage. Throw Reward: Jago is able to cancel his throw into a shadow move and then do a short juggle combo afterwards depending on the shadow chosen. If one chooses not to combo after the throw, Jago can choose from a few different powerful oki options. Meter Management: Jago builds a large amount of shadow meter by simply playing a classic shoto game due to normals and fireballs granting a grip of meter on block. Beyond shadow meter, Jago has the rare ability to boost his instinct meter with his combo trait, giving him a notable increase in meter gain across the length of a match. Versatile Shadow Moves: In concert with his high meter gain, Jago has a solid set of shadows. With the exception of S DP (which still sees some niche use in juggle combos), each of his shadows have a direct and powerful use case.

In Progress Relatively Linear Offense Loses Neutral Surprisingly Often Extremely Average Movement Known Quantity: Being the shoto of the game, anyone who puts any amount of time into the game will learn the Jago mu. Plenty of people also have Jago pockets, further reducing the amount of knowledge checks that will work against mid level players.

Far Medium Kick is a more ambitious and aggressive version of 5MP that moves Reaches the same range as 5MP but 1 frame slower, with a slightly more bad hitbox for hitting low profiles and moving his hurtbox forward to get counterhit more easily Jago moving forward isn't all bad since it can used to alter his spacing with the cancels (5MK instantly cancelled into Laser Sword works at ALMOST all ranges including a lot ones where 5MPxxlaser sword would always whiff, shenanigans which charged Endokuken and late cancels changing the range, etc)

2LP is an excellent chainable light attack with short recovery and plus frames. It serves as a low risk/low reward table setter for Jago offense to build off of. It is +2 on block which is hard to deal with upclose due to tick throws and frame traps and also hard to contest from afar as the 2LP,5MP beats defenders jabbing via priority and while characters can normal throw to win priority, Most characters throws wont have the range to interact with Jago from distance

2MP is a shorter range medium poke made to swat upper body invul moves AND lower body invul moves from opponents 2MP xx L wind kick will usually not miss on hit or block so if you want to turn back the clock and counter hit someone with a -4 special, 2MP is best one to set it up(2MK and 5MK are good at this too but carry a bit more risky & you can mess up and late cancel it TOO late with 5MK)

High damage Anti-Air, Punish normal At a beginner to intermediate level, Jago players can use this to anti air in situations where they would feel uncomfortable reacting with DP As a non-invulnerable normal there are some situations it would lose where Jago DP would hit the opponent but 2HP is still At high level, Jago players can use 2HPxx Heavy Laser Sword to hit people who empty jump at Jago (so they don't get COUNTERHIT for 27% by H DP) and go into juggles It is the hardest hitting (non-Tusk) heavy normal especially on counter hit which is useful sometimes It isn't great to recklessly fish for counter hits since its very minus on block which means Jago has to cancel into laser sword to not be minus and that loses to shadow counter. If the opponent sniffs out whats going on things can get tricky for Jago.

Being -4 actually works in its favour as opponents trying to take back control open themselves up to a counter-hit DP while Jago is still safe from Lights.

Shadow Laser Sword is a high damage shadow that boosts Jagos pd build in his combo game Confirming into Shadow Laser Sword opener yields high damage and high unbreakable pd build which aids Jago in building ender levels and getting juicy cashouts Shadow Laser Sword linker also does a lot of damage and PD but is breakable which can lead to poor value gained for bar spent if the opponent beats you in the breaking mindgame Jago can circumvent this by using Shadow Laser Sword linker at the end of lockouts. If Jago fits 3 hits of Shadow Laser Sword into a lockout the opponent can't break and if he is only able to fit 2 then the shadow has to be broken on last 3 hits this makes counter breaking opponents easier since they can't fake you out on when they will break. +2 on block. Against opponents without meter Jago can throw wind kicks and cancel into Shadow Laser Sword to be near the opponent and plus.

Shadow Wind Kick is a fast traveling, projectile invulnerable, low crush attack and one of Jago main tools against zoning Shadow wind kick as an anti zoning tool is super good and Jagos other anti-zoning tools fall off so significantly that in certain problem matchups. Jago has to consider not spending meter on damage/other shadow moves so that if the opponent slips away he can get back in
