JoJo's Bizarre Adventure': Heritage for the Future/Devo

Introduction

D'bo (Originally "Devo", also known as "Soul Sacrifice") is one of Dio's henchmen. He uses his Stand, a bizarre doll named Ebony Devil, to attack Polnareff, but is killed upon its destruction.

In terms of gameplay, Devo is a mid-tier character with fairly nice mixup capability.

Special Moves

Only Ebony Devil will act during a special move. However, doing a special move will still cancel Devo's current attack animation, enabling some interesting links.

Piranha Dive (QCF+A)

Ebony Devil jumps forward spinning like a tornado and biting at the enemy. a1 version hits 2 times, a2 version hits 4 times, and a3 version hits 6 times.

Hopping Hunter (QCB+A)

Ebony Devil hops up holding a huge spear and comes down hard. Button pressed (a1, a2, a3) determines distance hopped, a1 being the shortest and a3 being the farthest. When Stand Mode is on, you can hold down and mash a button to get extra hits (a1: 4 Hits, a2: 6 Hits, a3: 8 Hits).

Propeller Cutter (D,D+A)

Ebony Devil spins his spear over his head repeatedly. The strength of the button determines how fast he spins and the number of hits. Mashing a1, a2, and/or a3 repeatedly will give more hits. I have achieved up to 18 hits off the a3 version of this move.

Super Moves

Junky Carnival (QCF+AA)

Ebony Devil jumps all around the opponent cutting them with his saw and finally throws his hair drier at them. Holding down AA will allow you to delay its activation.

Barrel Roll Crusher (QCB+AA)

This is basically an EX version of his Piranha Dive move and hits 13 times.

Torment Sacrifice (F,D,DF+A)

Ebony Devil spins around in circles and launches the opponent upward for 11 hits.
