Introduction

Head of an international NGO responsible for many successful investment projects, and the man behind Nayshall's present prosperity. Has a beloved cat named Cybele.

The elegant ex-Shadaloo financier saunters onto the battlefield as a slow but powerful zoner. Unlike other zoners who focus on firing off quick projectiles or pestering opponents with fast and long-ranged normals, JP chooses instead to bury his opposition in a barrage of psychic power. JP wants his opponents sitting still, for it is when they feel there is no hope of escape that he can set them up for a devious mixup situation.

JP's central special moves are Torbalan and Triglav. The former is a slow but large projectile that can be fired along three different lanes of movement, and the latter is a nearly instant spike attack that can come out at nearly any part of the screen. While Torbalan is slow, it has a ton of uses and can even mix up your opponents as one variant is a low and another is an overhead. Triglav meanwhile acts as both a detterent and anti-air, catching people trying to move towards JP and sniping out poor air approaches. With these two special moves, JP forces his opponents back towards the corner and continues to bury them in full-screen pressure. Once an opponent has eaten a combo or chooses to sit still for long enough, JP can deploy his signature Departure, a portal that will either shoot out a tracking spike or act as a teleport point for JP to warp to at any time.

While JP's zoning is strong, any good opponent will eventually get past it. Once they are within striking distance, JP likes to use his midrange pokes to bat opponents backwards. 5HP is a great callout tool that can be special canceled, while his 2HP is a solid anti-air and his 2HK is a fantastic poke. Any good hit JP gets can be instantly canceled into a Drive Rush combo that sends your opponent to the opposite end of the screen and allows him to resume his zoning. Opponents who make overly-deliberate plays can be hit with JP's counter Amnesia, which deals no damage but leaves opponents stuck to a timed bomb.

JP has an extremely large mixup toolbox. His throw game is very strong and has high reward, but he can also perform powerful high/low mixups if he has Depature set up above you. His level 2 super is an incredible mixup tool that can be used to create airtight mixups, resets, and even full-on unblockables to melt your health bar. JP has mixups everywhere- he has mixups in his Target Combos, he has mixups in his pressure sequences, and he even has mixups in his zoning! JP has access to Embrace, a fullscreen projectile command grab that gives JP excellent pressure opportunity on hit, looks just like Torbalan, and does high damage.

It's important to stress that all this offensive power comes at a steep cost, that being JP's movement. Unlike other zoners who don't necessarily sacrifice movement for their zoning prowess, JP has terrible movement stats and must rely on Drive Rush for any considerable mobility. In addition, JP's zoning specials are very slow and open him up to punish opportunities on an incorrect play that other zoners might be safe from. JP also has a notable deadzone within the midrange, where his pokes are either fast, but too stubby, or long, but too slow. His tall standing hurtbox and wide frame also make him vulnerable to mixups at a greater extent than other members of the cast, and while he does have Amnesia to bail him out of bad scenarios, that too carries immense risk. In general, JP is great for players who love to keep their opponents at a constant disadvantage and can manage to get around his slower movement. If you love overwhelming offensive might without having to get your hands too dirty, then there's no better pick than this master of Psycho Power.


Pick if you like: Avoid if you dislike:
  • Having a varied zoning kit comprised of Projectiles and Strikes, with mixups and counters to Drive Parry built in
  • Using a variety of strong and safe close-range buttons with options for mixups
  • Crafting tons of setups which can lead to resets, mixups, and even unblockables
  • A unique counter reversal that works on both strikes and throws and allow for custom follow-ups and punishes
  • Needing momentum in life or frames to win zoning wars due to slower startup on projectiles and Triglav trading most of the times
  • Being slower than average, both in walkspeed and Drive Rushes
  • Having to deal with unique counters to your zoning present on most of the cast

  • If a move's hitbox and hurtbox overlap, the colors blend to appear orange

🟦 (Blue): Vulnerable throw hurtbox

  • Will be thrown if Pink throw hitbox touches Blue throw hurtbox



Active

How many frames a move remains active (can hurt opponents) for. For projectiles with a maximum active period, a value may be listed in [brackets], but this number is not factored into the move's total frame count.

  • For multi-hit moves with no gaps between the active hitboxes, active frames are listed as X,Y (or sometimes X*Y)
  • For multi-hit moves with gaps between hits, active frames are listed as X(n)Y where n = the frame gap between hitboxes.



Cancel

Available options for canceling one move into another move.

  • "Chn": Chain cancel (Light normals; specific chain options listed in Description)
  • "TC": Target Combo
  • "Sp": Special move
  • "SA": Super Art (if a number is listed, refers only to that specific Super; SA3 = Lv.3 Super Art)
  • "Jmp": Jump cancel (usually on hit only, if applicable)
  • "SS": Serenity Stream (Chun-Li's stance)
    • If one hit of a multi-hit attack is cancelable, this can be indicated with (1st), (2nd), etc.
    • Occasionally, a move can be canceled only into a specific follow-up (e.g. Dee Jay [4]6P > 22PP); this can be indicated by listing the move input in the Cancel field, or with an asterisk that is explained in the move notes (Sp*)



Cancel Hitconfirm Windows

Hitconfirm reaction windows into Special Moves, Target Combos, and Super Arts.

  • Refers to the amount of time (in frames) you have to cancel one attack into another attack on reaction
    • e.g. most cancelable 2MKs have a 13 frame window to cancel into a Special/Super on reaction, making them nearly impossible to hitconfirm
  • Counts from the first frame the attack connects until the final cancelable frame
    • Visual effects like hitsparks and HP drain do not actually occur until frame 2; the first frame is still counted to keep the numbers consistent with previous games, and because it is technically possible to start reacting to the character's reeling animation on frame 1
  • If a Target Combo is cancelable into another attack, the hitconfirm window will include the entire sequence starting from the first hit
    • If there is a frame gap on block between hits of the TC, the hitconfirm window may also be included for just the followup hit
    • Some sequences like Ken's 5MP~HP TC may have a range of values listed (43f~47f). In this example, inputting 5MP~HP at its usual timing gives a 43f hitconfirm into a Special/Super. Delaying the chain into HP gives more total time for the final hitconfirm.



Damage

Attack damage on hit. Multi-hit moves may have the damage listed for individual hits as X,Y (or sometimes X*Y). Sometimes a move's damage changes depending on which active frame connects, or on cinematic vs. non-cinematic hits; in this case, multiple values may be listed, and it will be clarified in the move description.

Damage Scaling

Some moves cause additional damage scaling in combos. Refer to Game Data page for a more detailed breakdown.

Scaling Types:

  • Starter: When a move begins the combo, the next attack is scaled by X percent
    • e.g. Ryu 2MK (20% Starter) > Hadoken: Hadoken is at 80% damage scaling
  • Combo: When a move is comboed into, the next attack is scaled by X percent or X number of hits
    • e.g. Ryu 2HP > OD High Blade Kick (2-Hit Combo Scaling) > Shoryuken: Shoryuken is at 70% damage scaling (100% > 100% > [skip 80%] > 70%)
    • e.g. Cammy 5HP > OD Spiral Arrow (5% Combo Scaling) > Cannon Spike: Cannon Spike is at 75% damage scaling (100% > 100% > [80-5 = 75%])
  • Immediate: When a move is comboed into, this attack is scaled by X percent
    • e.g. Drive Impact Crumple (20% Starter) > Throw (20% Immediate): Throw is at 60% damage scaling
  • Multiplier: A damage scaling multiplier applies after Perfect Parry (50%) and mid-combo Drive Rush (15%). Any hits in the combo continue their usual damage scaling, but reduced by these amounts. These can bring the minimum scaling below the usual 10%, and they stack with each other; as a result, the minimum scaling can reach 4% using a long Drive Rush combo after Perfect Parry.
  • Minimum Scaling: The lowest damage scaling that can be applied to an attack. Super Art Level 1/2/3 generally has 30%/40%/50% minimum scaling respectively. This ensures the attack will still do reasonable damage even at the end of a heavily scaled combo.



Drive Rush Cancel Advantage

Refers to the frame advantage when canceling a normal, command normal, or Target Combo into Drive Rush on hit or block (abbreviated as DRC for Drive Rush Cancel). This is calculated at the moment a follow-up attack can be input, not at the moment the character can block or perform movement options. An attack that with DRC +8 on Hit can link into an 8-frame attack, and DRC +4 on Block can create a true blockstring into a 4-frame attack.

Note that any DRC on Block worse than +4 cannot form a true blockstring, allowing the opponent to interrupt with an invincible reversal. Most light normals are slightly negative after a DRC on block, meaning the opponent can mash their fastest normal to guarantee a counter-hit (though this requires fast reactions). The attacking character could punish this with Light > DRC into an immediate invincible attack, but this would be an incredibly expensive and high-risk gambit.

Forced Knockdown

Most airborne command normals, special moves, and Super Arts put the user in a "Forced Knockdown" state. While in this state, an air knockdown will occur when being hit by any attack, even if it would otherwise cause an air reset.

As an example, Ryu's 2HP causes an air reset when used as an anti-air. Against a move like Cammy's Hooligan Combination, however, the 2HP puts her into an air knockdown state. This allows Ryu to successfully cancel 2HP into Shoryuken for a juggle, similar to how a Drive Impact wall splat works. Taking advantage of Forced Knockdown juggles is important for dealing with moves like Ken's Dragonlash, Dhalsim's Air Teleport, or Kimberly's 6HK~Hop sequence.

Moves that already cause an air knockdown, like most j.MP air-to-airs, will not display the "Forced Knockdown" message.

Guard

Refers to the direction an attack must be blocked. L is for Low attacks (must be blocked crouching), H is for High attacks/overheads (must be blocked standing), LH is for attacks that can be blocked crouching or standing. T is for Throw attacks which cannot be blocked.

Juggles

When a character is put into an Air Knockdown state, it is often possible to follow up with a Juggle attack before they hit the ground. In the simplest terms, there are 2 main juggle states:

  • Free Juggle: any attack can juggle, causing an Air Reset or an Air Knockdown
  • Limited Juggle: only specific attacks with juggle potential may juggle



The following is a more detailed overview of the SF6 juggle system:

Juggle Count (JC): The status of the character being juggled. A high JC limits which attacks can work in juggles.

  • JC0: free juggle state - any attack that can hit an airborne opponent will work
  • JC1+: limited juggle state - juggle only works if the attack's Juggle Limit ≥ defender's Juggle Count

Juggle Start (JS): When starting a juggle, the opponent's JC will be set to this value. May be different vs. standing and airborne opponents.

  • Attack with Juggle Start value of 3 will put opponent at JC3, so only attacks with Juggle Limit value ≥ 3 can follow up

Juggle Increase (JI): When opponent is already in a juggle state, attacks will increase the opponent's JC by this amount.

  • Airborne opponent at JC1 followed by attack with Juggle Increase value of 3 will set opponent to JC4

Juggle Limit (JL): Property of an attack hitbox that determines whether it connects on a juggled opponent. The JL must be ≥ the opponent's JC to hit successfully.

  • An uppercut with a JL value of 5 will connect on an opponent at JC5 or below, but will whiff on JC6 opponent
  • Most normals have a JL value of 0, meaning they only work in Free Juggle (JC0) states
  • Some multi-hit attacks have different JL values on each hit, so a 3-hit move may only hit twice in juggles

An example to tie everything together:

  • An attack (JS3) launches opponent into the air (Opponent now at JC3)
  • Followed up with an attack (JI2/JL4); it connects, because JL4 ≥ JC3 (Opponent now at JC5)
  • Attempts to juggle again with same attack (JL4), but whiffs because JL4 < JC5 (Opponent hits the ground)

Drive Rush notes:

  • DR normals have a Juggle Start/Increase value of 0
  • DR normals have +3 added to their usual Juggle Limit



On Hit/Block

These are frame advantage values when the attack hits or is blocked. If the number is positive, then the move will recover before the defender can act again. If the number is negative, the defender will be able to act before the attacker and maybe even punish. KD refers to knockdown on hit, and the listed KD Advantage refers to how many frames the attacker can act before the defender finishes their wakeup animation.

  • Note that generally, there is an extra +2 hit advantage on Counterhits and +4 hit advantage on Punish Counters (exceptions are noted in the description).



Recovery

How many frames it takes for a move to finish after the active frames have finished. For projectiles, recovery is considered to begin after the first active frame.

  • Moves with different recovery values on hit/block/whiff may have multiple values listed like X(Y), with specific details listed in the description.



Startup

How many frames it takes before the move becomes 'active' or have a hit box. The last startup frame and the first active frame are the same frame, meaning all values are written as Startup + 1.

  • Moves with multiple relevant startup values may be listed as X(Y); for example, a move that hits airborne first before hitting grounded opponents, or a 2-hit move where the first hit whiffs at some ranges.

JP's farthest reaching light normal, and can be chained into from his 2LP or 2LK, making it good for confirming light chains into LP Striborg.

At 6 frames startup, this is not a move that you should try to mash on defense.

12 3 21 - 700 LH +1 -6
  • Good disjoint on the far half of the cane

JP's farthest reaching poke, with a good disjoint at the tip. 5MP is a great neutral tool to control space, whiff punish when 5HP wouldn't reach, and stop Drive Rushes which is a common counter to his projectiles and zoning. It works great for harassment and keepaway too as it provides heavy pushback on block, wich makes it safe at most range where you would use it.

Has no reward on hit even with Drive Rush or Punish Counter, and lack of cancel makes it vulnerable to Drive Impact. Know when to swap it for 5HP.

As a round start option, it can trade with fireballs and interrupt some Drive Rushes, but beware of buttons like Chun-li's 5HP that can potentially whiff punish it hard.

  • Good disjoint on the far half of the cane
  • Punish Counter: +25
  • Hurtbox extends 1 frame before the hitbox becomes active

Important midrange and combo tool for JP's thanks to its good hitbox properties and great reward on hit. It is cancelable unlike many of his other midrange moves, which is important for shutting down Drive Impacts in neutral or converting stray hits into combos.

On hit, it's heavy hitstun allows combos into L Torbalan on hit from any range. It and 2HP are also used in Drive Rush combos as the extra hitstun allows them to combo into HP Striborg for big launches. It also has juggle potential, and sees a lot of use in JP's launch combos. On Punish Counter you get massive frame advantage, which makes it JP's optimal punish starter for very unsafe attacks (like a blocked DP).

  • Hitbox is low enough to the ground to break Upper-Body armor (like Marisa's meterless parry)

Can't be chained into, and has less range than 5LP. Still useful for some specific punishes or mashing situations where 2LP lacks range, like frame trapping after a blocked 5HK at longer distance.

1f slower, but farther reaching than 2MP which generally makes this button JP's main special cancelable button in neutral. It can be especially threating off Drive Rush and has the same enders as 2MP for combos. One of JPs normals with the most pushback on block, which makes it particularly safe and useful for pressure. Uniquely, when 5MK is special canceled it also moves JP forward.

  • Whiffs on crouchers at max range.

JP's best combo starter as it links into 2MP, or goes into the 5HP target combo if you're too far away. Fast enough to work after jump-ins or Drive Impact crumples. On block, this is JP's only advantageous normal, allowing you to frame trap with 2LP or 5LK.

It can also work as an anti-air for distant jumps that might make 2HP whiff, but has less reward than 6HK in those situations.

7 4 14 Sp SA 600 LH +6 -2

Great mid-range poke, and the least commital of JP's mediums thanks to low recovery, on top of being safe against Drive Impact. A bit stubbier than 5MK, but the faster speed and the small disjoint will help in some situations. Links into itself, 5MK or 4MP if you can score a Counterhit in neutral and aren't too far, but can't link into anything if you hit at the tip. Its hitbox is also high enough to sometimes work as an anti-air, though this isn't very reliable or rewarding.

If you Counter an aerial move (like Ken's Dragonlash), you can juggle 5HP and combo from there. This only applies to grounded moves, and not jump-ins.

2MP is also an important combo tool for JP, as it can link from 5HK and then cancel into MP Striborg (except at maximum range where it falls out, in that case use LP Striborg). It can also be Drive Rush canceled into 2HP for HP Striborg combos. Links into itself on Counter Hit/Punish Counter, wich can make hitconfirming a bit easier.

9 6 20 Sp SA 800 LH +1 -6
  • Forces stand on hit
  • JP's head and extended arm are invincible to airborne strikes from frames 6 to 14

JP's main anti-air, with a good vertical hitbox and some disjoint at the tip. Has a deadzone behind JP making it vulnerable to crossups and some close jumps. In those situations, try to use j.LP or air throw.

Special-cancelable, allowing for potential setups or mixups after anti-airing: Cancels to Torbalan can mixup your opponent or provide advantage on block (safe to Drive Impact but can be interrupted by some supers), fake Torbalan is barely minus/advantageous after the reset and can bait reversals, Departure is riskier but more rewarding (OD Departure is around -4, unpunishable even with supers unless absolutely point blank). Embrace is the riskiest of the followups but can catch opponents looking for the other options.

Has the highest juggle potential of JP's normals, and will cause an aerial reset when used in combos. In the corner, JP can get unmashables high/low mixups if you hit 2HP very low and cancel into MK/HK Torbalan (or fake the projectile to bait reversals and Drive Parry/Impact)

If you get a Punish Counter against some aerial special moves like Dhalsim's Teleport or Cammy's Hooligan Combination, 2HP launches into a juggle that you can convert by Drive Rushing into 5HP > HP Striborg.

Fantastic neutral poke as it hits low, has great range, combos on Counter Hit and moves him forward. The downsides include not being cancelable and being vulnerable to early Drive Impacts. Using it after Drive Rush improves it to +1 on block and +7 on hit making it JP's best low from Drive Rush.

Great for fishing for counter-hits in neutral as it links into 5LK on Counter-Hit and 2MP on Punish Counter, allowing for strong conversions.

JP's sweep has less range than his 2MK but compensates by being safer than most sweeps with a lower disadvantage on block, making it harder to punish outside of close range.

Two-hit launching kick. Excellent combo starter and has the same speed as 5HK. 6HK is generally better in the corner while 5HK is better mid-screen.

Doubles as an anti-air for distant jumps with great reward as it keeps the opponents juggled and cancels, allowing it to combo into Triglav.

A target combo that does everything you could ask it to. It is safe on block, cancels, easy to hit confirm in neutral, and has mixups attached to it.

Canceling into MP Stribog frame traps everything that's isn't invincible but is unsafe on block, while canceling into Triglav trades with 4 frame attacks but leaves you so plus that you will have the time to setup Departure and still be advantageous.

If the opponents decides to block/parry the followup, you can cancel into Embrace to surprise them.

Finally, as the target combo is only -3, you can end it with no followup to bait DPs and Drive Impacts.

You can substitute the overhead and low followups with cancels to MK or HK Torbalan. Torbalan mixups leave the same gap on block, but have better reward on hit (allowing combos in the corner without counterhit), are safe to Drive Impact unlike the built-in followups, and being projectiles, they can beat some reversal level 1 (useful for characters without an OD reversal) or JP's OD parry if the opponent tries to reversal the mixup. The built-in followups are safer on block but still punishable (-4 for the followups, -8 for Torbalan).

Startup Active Recovery Cancel Damage Guard On Hit On Block
22 10 24 SA3 800 LH KD +44 -2
  • Counts as a projectile

JP summons a spike from the ground, with the button used determining the location.

Important zoning tool: First, it's a great way to force opponent to sit still after blocking Torbalan or Departure's followup, which are highly plus when done from fullscreen. It will catch them jumping or dashing, forcing them to walk and block or wait for the spike to come out before acting. It's also great for anti-zoning as it will ignore your opponent's fireball and strike them directly, at the price that you will trade with their fireball instead of nullifying it, which can be a viable strategy if you have life lead. Also works as a full-screen check against characters that might try to use the distance for setups (like Ryu's Denjin Charge).

The best counterplay to Triglav is to attempt to perfect parry and punish with either a fast traveling move (Spiral Arrow, Blanka Ball) or with Drive Rush into a fast normal.

Triglav is also an important combo tool for JP. The spikes launch the opponent into a juggle state, and have juggle potential themselves. On regular grounded hit, you can only land 2HP or level 1 in the corner. But on a high air connect, you can land a second spike anywhere on screen. The importance of Triglav comes in completing launch combos for JP, such as after an HP Striborg wallbounce, after an ennemy has been hit by Departure's followup and many of JP's other launches.

Hits two times, useful for single-hit armored moves that might beat regular Triglav, and is also plus on block allowing for pressure reset if you cancel it from a heavy normal or the 4MP target combo. On hit, the juggle state is a little more limited as you can't land 2HP anymore but can still juggle level 1.

HP Striborg wallbounces and acts as a combo extender. This version is way slower and won't combo from any normal on normal grounded hit. To land it, you have to use a Drive Rush heavy, or juggle into it after 6HK in the corner.

As it is plus on block, you can use it to reset pressure on opponents that respects you too much, but keep in mind that any cancel into HP Striborg outside of burnout leaves at least 6-frames gaps for your opponent to attack.

Faster than the HP version, allowing it to combo after heavies or the 4MP target combo. It still wallbounces, but not as long as HP Striborg, which makes the followups a bit more limited.

Still plus on block, but unlike OD Triglav doesn't true string from heavies, however the gap is small enough that anything that isn't invincible will get countered.

  • Goes away if JP is hit or if it gets left behind off-screen. It will also disappear after a certain distance away from JP.

JP sets up a portal, with the button used determining the location.

Useful for zoning, okizeme and mixups. Having Departure set up and close to your opponent forces them to respect JP's options, otherwise they risk being hit by the followup. However, Departure's animation is very long, and JP usually needs a knockdown to set it up safely.

214PP
Departure
Startup Active Recovery Cancel Damage Guard On Hit On Block
40+70 [10(20)10] 40 total - 500x2 LH KD ~ -

OD Departure sets up two portals. The button combination determines the location, with LP+MP using the LP location, LP+HP using the MP location and MP+HP using the HP location. LP will teleport to the portal closest to JP while MP teleports to the second portal. HP will trigger spikes from both, with the first spike coming out of the portal closest to where it was summoned from.

Thanks to having 10 fewer frames of recovery, OD Departure is safer to set up in neutral or after knockdowns, especially against full-screen attacks while also giving more mixups opportunities thanks to the two hits.

OD Departure can be comboed into after a Punish Counter 5HP, which gives JP both great damage punishes and the opportunity to side switch with the LP+HP version.

JP teleports to his portal, and can act out of it. Fantastic repositioning tool, allowing for side switches and useful for avoiding some advancing moves like Spiral Arrow if used in time. From it, you can use one of your jump-ins, either to punish their action like a fireball or get plus frames on block. You can also empty jump low for catching opponent asleep/not parrying/not mashing.

Another great aspect of Departure's teleport is catching the opponent parrying projectiles. When zoning with Triglav or Torbalan, opponents might start parrying to avoid losing more drive gauge. Teleport into throw can get you a punish throw.

214P~214HP
Departure: Shadow
Startup Active Recovery Cancel Damage Guard On Hit On Block
19(21) [10] 21 - 800 LH KD +58(+60) +9(+11)

Departure's spike followup, will detonate on its own and can also be manually triggered by using 214HP. Automatically tracks to the opponent's location as the spike emerges, allowing it to hit from behind if opponents move too far forwards.

Forces opponents to approach and pressure JP carefuly as the reward on hit can be huge and will trigger even while JP is blocking. Makes opponents think twice about advancing, allowing for zoning with Torbalan and Triglav, slowly chipping away their Drive/Health Bar.

Manually triggering is JP's fastest way to hit an opponent below it from fullscreen, great for catching jumps/dashes after they blocked Triglav, or the startup of fullscreen advancing moves like Blanka Ball. On block, the frame advantage allows JP to use Triglav without much risk while catching commital movement, or use the threat of it to throw Torbalan or even summon another Departure if they respect it too much.

On hit, can be followed up with 5HP into different enders (Triglav meterlessly, OD Torbalan...) for great damage and distance with your opponent.

  • Can be feinted by holding down the button

Torbalan is an unique projectile as it does not have a hitbox while traveling, but will instead "activate" upon contact with the opponent.

One of JP's core zoning tools, as they provide frame advantage when blocked at a distance which lets JP threaten with Triglav to enforce the plus frames. Once the opponent is scared of the spike, you can go for greedier things like Departure or another Torbalan. They are also essential in zoning wars to cancel out your opponent's projectiles.

Uniquely for projectiles, MK hits overhead while HK hits low, allowing JP to mixup his opponent from a distance. While slow when done from far away, the low proprety of HK can be used to prevent opponents from walking back out of pressure or making the threat of Departure Teleport into a jump normal harder to defend against, while MK's proprety as a high can disrupt opponents using a charge anti-air like Flash Kick looking to anti-air the teleport.

From up-close, they are a bit more efficient as raw mixup thanks to their ability to be canceled into from normals and their similar animations and startup sound, although any cancel outside of Drive Rush/Burnout will leave big mashable gabs. Those gaps can be made scarier to challenge thanks to LK Torbalan being fast enough to frame trap and Embrace being able to catch Parries and Drive Impacts.

On hit, LK Torbalan knocks ennemies into a limited juggle state similar to the one of MP Striborg, while MK and HK leaves the opponent standing. Combos out of MK/HK are possible on regular hit but difficult outside of the corner as the pushback prevents JP's light from reaching unless they were used raw and point blank. On counter-hit, you can link 5MK and get a combo. At long-range, you can usually follow any version with Triglav.

Due to their nature of only activating once close, a big counterplay to Torbalan is rapid forward movement, be it from special moves (Ken's Dragonlash), Drive Rushes (Dee Jay) or even dashes (Juri). If the opponents passes through Torbalan too fast, it will miss and leave JP punishable.

Torbalan
Startup Active Recovery Cancel Damage Guard On Hit On Block

OD Torbalan is a great way to either force JP's turn, with great advantage on block up-close, or to win fireball wars thanks to going through meterless ones. If the opponent respects it from a distance, you can usually get away with summoning Departure. It's also fast enough to frame trap from heavy buttons and resets pressure on block. On hit, can be followed up anywhere with Triglav or level 1 when close.

  • Counts as a strike: However it will still dissipate on contact with other projectiles, so it will rather confusingly lose to strike-invul moves rather than projectile-invul moves. Will beat JP's own OD Amnesia.
  • Cannot be performed while Departure is active

JP summons a clone that will go full screen and grab a grounded opponent. On top of adding an additional layers to JP's zoning that opponents need to be constantly aware of, preventing them from reaction blocking/parrying, it allows JP to counter universal options against Torbalan and Triglav, such as Drive Parries on reaction, or Drive Impacts. Just like Torbalan, the hitbox is not present until the clone makes contact with the opponent.

At close range, it's slow for a command grab, but the threat of being able to cancel into it from any normal that could cancel to safe frame traps or high/low mixups, while having similar visuals to Torbalan, can make it a viable option if used sparringly. Leaves at least 6-frames gap when canceled into, however using Drive Rush/Burnout 5HP into Embrace becomes a frame trap.

  • Counters any physical attack (not projectiles) from frame 3 onward. Loses to throws.
  • 17f of recovery on successful counter

JP takes a pose, and will counter any attack while he is glowing. If Amnesia successfully catches an attack, JP will place a bomb behind him that tracks enemies and explodes after a certain moment. The frame advantage after a parry heavily depends on the attack that was countered. Mediums attacks usually won't give enough frame advantage to punish but still leave JP in an advantageous position, while Heavies can often be punished with light or mediums. Drive Impacts leave JP +19 allowing for 5HP punishes. Be careful, as light will leave you at disadvantage while jump-ins makes you punishable on catch.

When used mid-screen, JP will take a big step back after a catch, wich makes optimal punishes harder (5HP will usually not reach unless the move had very high recovery). 2MK or 5MP are your best moves post-counter to knock your opponent into the bombs. When JP has his back to the corner, punishes are way easier

Amnesia
Startup Active Recovery Cancel Damage Guard On Hit On Block

  • Counters physical attacks AND throws from frame 1.
  • 17f of recovery on successful counter

OD Amnesia is a true reversal that is frame 1 and will work on throws, making it very useful on wakeup and in any telegraphed blockstring gaps. This version also leaves two bombs behind. Keep in mind that this will still lose to projectiles, so a wary opponent can still meaty a fireball and stuff your counter.

Being a parry rather than an invincible attack has its pros and cons. If you parry an attack with a particularly high recovery, JP's reversal damage can greatly exceed the one usually seen on other OD reversals. On the other hand, damage isn't always guaranteed either due to spacing or attacks not having enough recovery, forcing JP to try to mixup his opponent if he wants to get damage off of his reversal.

Almost uncontestable tools wich allow JP to setup whatever he wants as long as they are on the opponent and outside of throw or super range. If the opponent attempts to OD Reversal out, the bomb will usually hit them after their invincibility end and give a free combo to JP.

Chornobog is a solid Level 1 reversal, sending off a projectile full-screen on the 2nd hit. It can go through and punish some slower fireballs (like JP's own Torbalan). The vertical hitbox isn't that great and will whiff on a lot of neutral jumps.

Has some of the highest juggle potential of JP's move, and can be used at the end of most of his launches for extra damage.

JP summons multiple clones on the opponent's location that perform 4 attacks. Great for combo extensions or full-screen punishes/lockdown. The four attacks must always be blocked Mid, High, Low, High. As JP is free to act during that time, you can throw off the order by using Overheads or Lows during the sequence, or even setup unblockables if the opponent isn't using Drive Parry.

On block, the four attacks aren't a true blockstring, allowing you to potentially throw an opponent looking to block/parry the sequence, but keep in mind that this also gives them an opportunity to reversal.

JP teleports to his opponent and tries to grab them (but can be blocked). On top of being great to add damage to combos, JP's level 3 works well as a full-screen punish, especially against fireballs. The long startup makes it risky as a reversal, as some meaties will have time to block and punish. The CA version knockdown has the same frame advantage as his regular level 3, but always puts JP fullscreen away from the opponent.
