Gameplay Overview

Gameplay Notes

Joe is one of those characters that could best be described as "solid". He has a nice set of normals, some combos, very all-round special moves and a decent P-Power. Joe's strengths lie in his distance and poking game. His standing C and dashing C are great pokes that come out very fast and recover fast enough that you may keep up pressure even when blocked. His projectile does okay damage and cannot be hopped over, and the double projectile does very good damage for a non-super projectile, slightly higher than Geese's Double Reppuken. In addition, this version will ensure he wins any fireball fight against normal projectiles. His Tiger Knee is probably one of the highest priority uppercut moves in the game. You almost never see this beat by anything, as he has invincibility frames on start-up. In addition, his Crescent Moon Kick special can work as a long range air counter against predicted jumps. Since Joe's projectiles have to be high-jumped, this can be useful at times. Also, his Slash Kick is an excellent combo ender, punisher, and surprise move. Blazingly fast, and the B version is somewhat safe on block. The C version can punish a mistake across the screen, and does good damage. Joe is also a king of anti-airs. Here are the different ones at his disposal:


4B - High Roundhouse

214B - Crescent Kick

623B - Tiger Kick

641236BC - Screw Upper (S-Power)


When it comes to Joe's weaknesses, his 2C has horribly short range, and what's worse is that he is one of the few characters in the game that cannot use a strong low move in his combos. In fact, the only low-hitting move he can do in his combos is 2B, and the follow-ups that this move allows aren't really damaging. Even though Joe can finish his combos with u + C which is an overhead, he does not have any low equivalents, and this makes his mix-up game rather weak. On the plus side, 2C recovers quickly and can be cancelled on block or hit.

Joe's combos are very bad when it comes to mix-up potential and he has several redundant chains that does nothing but get in your way. On the other hand, the most damaging ones can all start with an A or B, allowing him some threatening power in trading situations.

Play style-wise, Joe should try to utilize his great pokes and long-range moves to intercept the opponent's movements. Joe is fast enough to get out of pressure so he can fight up close as well if needed, just don't expect to be doing any fancy mix-up with him. Joe has two grabs, the first one is unique in that the opponent can fast-recover from it, and his second grab can be mashed out of, but even if you press nothing and your opponent mashes you will usually get in most hits. Hits a maximum of 10 times for above average damage.

  • Joe does a very fast forwards flying kick.
  • Can be done with either 16B or 41236B
  • This move is easy to combo into
  • Usually safe on block if you perform it from some range away, ff you do it too close you will be at point blank range at your opponent's mercy
  • Follow up your connected pokes with this one
  • The move in itself travels through air, so if he is hit by any ground-based move he will be hit out of it instead of suffering a ground stun-hit that would allow him to be comboed
  • If the move is not blocked, both Joe and the opponent will reset, with Joe gaining a small frame advantage

C 32 - 20 15 30 KD -22 HL - N -
  • Joe does Slash Kick, but he follows it up with a second kick afterwards.
  • Cannot be done using 41236C, you will get C Hurricane Upper, but it can be done by using 2146C
  • More damaging, yet more risky version of the Slash Kick
  • If it connects, Joe will follow up with a second kick that knocks the opponent to the ground
  • This move is best used in combos
  • Due to the slow start-up you can only do it after a combo that gives the opponent a heavy stun animation
  • Damage and range are both very good
  • Can use this move to punish your opponent's mistakes at ANY range

  • Joe does an uppercut motion and a red funnel of wind appears in front of him.
  • Super Projectile
  • This move works much in the same manner as Geese's Raging Storm, but has less coverage and doesn't hit the back plane
  • Can be comboed into from his launcher combo
  • Use this against predicted jumps or from the launcher combo
  • Beware that Joe is vulnerable for quite some time after the wind disappears, so be careful with this move
  • In addition, this move will absorb projectiles, but is destroyed by P-Power projectiles

  • Joe does a flurry of combos before ending with a flaming Tiger Kick.
  • Autocombo
  • The hits are performed regardless whether they hit or not
  • The startup on this move is very fast, and thus very easy to combo into
  • Only the burning Tiger Kick move at the end of the move count as a special/super though, so don't expect this move to win any trades against similarly fast moves
  • Only the last few hits where he does a burning tiger kick actually counts as a super move when determining tick damage and invincibility, so despite what it seems, the move does very little tick damage
Version Damage Stun Startup Active Recovery Hit Advantage Block Advantage Guard Cancel BS Juggle
D 13,8*5,10*5(79) - 1+16 102 40 KD -13 HL - - -
  • This time Joe will do a quick line sway, then come back into the main plane with a burning knee before doing the rest of the combo as usual.
  • Autocombo
  • This is handy for countering pokes and missiles, as Joe will line sway past the missile/poke and get there just in time to punish

Chain Analysis

Combos. For many characters, this is where they get most of their power from. Joe on the other hand has to rely a bit more on his normals and special moves. His combos allow for little mix-up, they include many redundant chains, and most have bad range.

I will list the combos that are of importance. If a combo is missing here it is either because I consider it to have no use, or I have simply forgotten. Feel free to comment if you feel I have missed something.


5A, 5B, 5C

This very basic combo can only be done from a far version standing A, which can be crouched and has short range. What you can do is kara the rest of the combo from the punch so you get a long range double kick combo that can be useful for poking. Can be useful at times, but do not use this combo for punishing purposes, as there are more damaging ones.


2A, 5C xx Slash Kick / Tiger Kick / Hurricane Upper / Exploding Punch / Thunder Fire (P-power)

This basic combo may seem very small and weak at first, but it has some use because the C is one of only two combo enders that give enough frame advantage to follow up with a strong Slash Kick. The bad thing about this combo is that the very same C can be ducked.

This combo also leads into Joe's most damaging combo setup without meter. More on this in the advanced combos section further down the page.


Close 2B, 5C, -> Slash Kick / Tiger Kick / Hurricane Upper / Exploding Fists / Thunder Fire (P-power)

Very similar to the previous combo mentioned, except this one cannot be crouched. The bad thing about this is that it requires you to be at point blank range in order for the second hit of the combo to hit. Otherwise the first hit will push them out of range, which can and will be fatal. This is the second of the two ground combos Joe has that can lead into a strong Slash Kick.


2A, 2B, 3C, -> Tiger Kick / Slash Kick / Golden Heel Blast / Screw Upper (S-power)

This is the potentially most damaging combo that Joe can dish out unless he has P power. As with most of his other combos, it has horrible range, but the last hit of this one is a launcher, and Joe has many moves that can juggle after it, the most notable being his S Power. If the S-Power is unavailable, you can pretty much choose the follow up you want. The C version Slash Kick does the most, but requires precise timing to hit properly. The Golden Heel Blast comes in second in damage.

This is the most useful punishing combo Joe has, but you should avoid using the launcher on block, since it can be punished unless you cancel it into a special move, which is a risky situation either way.


2A, 2B, 5B xx Tiger Kick / Slash Kick / Thunder Fire (P-power) A safer version of the previous combo. This one does not launch the opponent, nor does it provide sufficient frame advantage to use the strong followups.


5B, 5C xx 236C

This is Joe's command combo. Joe performs a shin kick, then a high hook, then performs three roundhouse kicks in increasing height at his opponent. The last hit launches them. You can then juggle with a Tiger Kick in corners. Damage is more or less the same as the A, B, C combo unless you get off the juggle.

Be aware that if the second hit of the combo misses the opponent, then only the first kick of the qcf + C combo will hit, and the last two kicks will pass through the opponent without hitting. Against an opponent who knows, this will be a fatal mistake, so be careful and make sure to hit confirm the second hit before you input the qcf + C

You can cancel the second hit of the combo into any special or super or feint move.


Other Chains

Rbff2498.jpgRbff2499.jpg

5A, 5B, 8C - Joe will follow up his normals with a sort of flipping downward arcing kick.

-This chain can be done standing, crounching, or a mixture of both.

-Must begin with an A and then follow with a B or else the u + C will not come out

-The 8C part is an overhead, and will still come out and count as an overhead even if the A and B are blocked

-The 8C can be blocked even if the A, B connects.


Rbff2501.jpgRbff2500.jpg

5B, 5C xx Tiger Kick - Short combo than can be ended with Tiger Kick.

-Four hit combo

-Can replace Tiger Kick with Slash Kick, Exploding Punch, and Hurricane Upper, but these are not as safe


Rbff2502.jpgRbff2503.jpg

5A, 5B, 8C, 641236C - Joe hits the opponent with his overhead chain, and then goes into Thunder Fire.

-Since the 8C overhead can be blocked even if A, B connects, its best to use this combo on crouch blocking opponents

-Provides a bit of deception/mix-up for Joe

-Do not attempt if the opponent is standing before the 8C connects
