Honestly, Stand-On 623x is the most DIO move imaginable in the context of DIO as a character. Yes, he's begging you to try something - the man thinks he's (fucking) invincible.
Yeah, it's a flavor success; it's unfortunately also a function failure. I wonder if it would have been salvagable if it was some weird projectile-counter hybrid, like a warped version of Shadow DIO's counter.
The funniest thing about DIO is his Jotaro match-up, which feels really lore accurate (probably by accident). Jotaro and DIO kinda occupy the same archetype of character, wanting to get in your face for big damage combos (even Star Finger oki and DIO's Blazing Fists oki is the same idea in practice). However, Jotaro has buttons that are extremely fast and can stuff DIO's approaches, meaning that DIO has to play really cautiously and try to lame him out with knives or whiff punish him, and even then there's a chance Jotaro could jumpscare you with Star Breaker. Even if you are playing well, Jotaro could pop your skull open and win. I feel like that's close to how the fight between them plays out in the actual manga. Also it's not just the character portrait that has DIO in his jacket, it's literally every single image of DIO besides his actual in-game sprite. His new challenger portrait, character select manga panel, Stand Tandem portrait, Vs screen portrait, face portrait in the corner in-game (you can tell by the hair and just barely seeing his headband) and even the title screen all have Jacket DIO. It's literally everything _except_ the actual DIO you get to play as (without modding). This probably happened because High DIO appears for about three chapters in the manga, and since HFTF draws its sprites directly over the manga panels, most of the available references are Jacket DIO. I'm pretty sure the only other time High DIO's design is used is in Midler's ending, where he drains her blood (which uses the panel him draining Joseph's blood for reference).
They do this matchup shenanigan in every game. Both versions of ASB got this quirkiness going on and can make DIO's 3 bar super unusable because the opponent picked Jotaro.
Lore wise DIO is way more powerful than Jotaro, he has the ego to seek more power in whatever form it takes, Jotaro also has ego but he restrains it and requires other people to bring out the best in him. DIO underestimated Jotaro because Jotaro only brings out his full power when absolutely necessary, and if DIO didn't have The World then Star Platinum probably would've never figured out it could stop time. Edit: Shadow DIO seems to be what you're describing, where SDIO and Jotaro are both aggressive brawlers but Jotaro is stronger so SDIO has to use knives and passive stand specials to gain the upper hand.
Shadow Dio’s existence is funny to me because it’s just Dio from the panels before he reached full power. That said, it’s pretty sick how he manages to be a fully realized character that feels deliberately incomplete, relating to the manga.
Both before he reached full power, and before he was exposing what power he had, too. It's kind of a cool design approach for a fighting game character; his moves are weird in part because they're not really showing HOW he's doing this stuff, just that he IS doing it. The only thing I would've changed is to take away the time stop super, because otherwise a bunch of it reads really well as 'Dio's using time powers and nobody can tell'.
I’ll always find it interesting that the jacketless/final fight Dio is the playable one on the roster, given that the jacket look is more iconic. I would’ve expected a Shin Akuma situation, where the jacketless version is a souped up boss-only character. Either way, it’s a good look. Love how well they adapted him for the game.
Tbf. This game was made before JoJo was popular in the West. Makes sense that capcoms vision of whats iconic and what people want to see is vastly different from what it is today
Am I any good at fighting games? No. Do I understand half of what MrMixtape talks about in these videos? Also no. Do I still enjoy watching these videos and listening to the explanations? Yes, yes I do.
I think I spend 150-200x more time watching fighting game content than I do playing fighting games. I love this content so much and this channel is nothing but prime stuff.
15:51 I will not tolerate Bloody summoning being downplayed, it is a great reversal, far from just okay. Issue is that its just outshined by Knives and tandem mostly. S.on BS is incredibly hard to punish correctly and most of the time if you block it anywhere except pointblank, Dio is practically unpunishable and can even try to just throw out another one catching your punish attempt.
it's more likely that your internet is the problem, or the high ping of the people you tried to fight on online, the game becomes a slideshow if you play against anyone that's at 300+ ping, or 200+ on wi-fi. It runs on pretty much anything that have access to directx9 (AKA almost all computers from 2009 onwards, most 2005+ computers)
You can actually see a whole frame of Hol Horse getting grabbed as the clip ends, meaning they got grab mixed 4 times in a row. Probably lost him that round even.
Why? For what reason? It's not hard and fundamental to basically any anime fighter. I get that you're trying to make a joke but realistically it doesn't land because nobody has this issue.
I came back to this game a week ago and have always mained DIO. This video dropping NOW of all times means I'm gonna be playing HTFT for the next 5 years.
22:00 well, you could use that unblockable as a roll meaty that you mentioned shortly before, but other than that there's also the very common dash left/right "mixup" its far from airtight and has its flaws, but it does catch people all the time
DIO is not the final boss because he's the final opponent you fight in the arcade mode. He's actually the final boss because knowing how to play him effectively is damn hard. And it's _DIO,_ so of course you want to learn how to play him effectively. And thats how he gets ya. Honestly pretty in character for DIO.
Hey man, just wanted to let you know how awesome these videos are. I got into fighting games about a year ago and you've been my favorite creator that i found in the space ever since then. Every new upload is an instant watch for me. Especially with these HFTF videos, I feel like I genuinely understand nearly every character in the game on a base level and I don't even play it lol. I really wanna get into retro games but the execution required for them just makes it seem kinda daunting to me. Your videos continually push me to want to play them anyway though, and I feel like HFTF will be the first one I give a shot. I've now got a good idea of which characters I'm interested in are less executionally demanding and how to play them, like S. Dio, Avdol, and Rubber Soul. Anyway, thank you for all the entertainment and inspiration over the last several months. Keep up the good work dude, we all enjoy it.
It's pretty cool seeing you explain these characters, and it's cool to see how capcom made these characters work in a fighting game also, want to thank you for getting me into JOJO HFTF it's a pretty cool game
I feel like Bloody Summoning and Divine Drink should heal the DIOs. They're slurping the opponents blood, and that's exactly how he regenerates from damage in the manga.
@@DragoonCenten nah normal DIO could do with a change like that bloody summoning isnt even a very good super. Shadow dio doesnt need the heal though lol his suck doesnt even take meter and is unblockable fuck that shit
@asdasd-dm1hd Normal DIO is among the best in the game, Shadow DIO is overplayed and is annoying to see over and over, so I'd say the less changes to them the better.
Very well put together video showcasing important tools for both Dio and Sdio, its a bit surface level at some points, however you definitely did do your research on 99% of things stated in this video
The thought comes to mind that I think we didn't use numpad notation when I was young because computers weren't as ubiquitous and we certainly weren't playing any fighting games on them. At least not any good ones, so the old "QCF" "HCB" sort of thing is what I grew up with. Adjusting to numpad notation has proven to be a little tricky for my old man brain.
21:32 in Sengoku Basara X one of the characters (Date Masamune) has a DP that is punishable on hit. It’s even punishable on hit into an infinite depending on the character
I really appreciate how well you break down these characters for someone who hasn’t played, even giving some bnbs and tech tips! Because these videos have made me really interested in looking for more heritage content to see how to get into the game or who I think I’d like playing.
I got into HFTF around 2020. Since day 1 I knew I wanted to main DIO. It probably took me over 50 hours of grinding with training mode lua scripts just to get the bnb down consistently, but once I got it man did it feel so good. I got to B rank with him and I was happy with that. I have not played a good session of HFTF in probably over 2 years, but I know if I pick up DIO right now I can still pull off that bnb. You never forget.
Fun fact for the FGC community who might not be familiar with the source material: DIO is also a lawyer, in case you needed any more convincing he's evil as heck
8:41 is straight up wrong btw, it does work multiple times, however you'll lose it by doing a couple things, for example utilizing sj236x will remove it
Every time he releases a video in HFTF I feel like I’m ascending. You legitimately explain these characters the best. These long form videos are the best please make more.
10:55 S623x only has 2 legitimate utilities but they're so situational that you will most likely never get to use them, but first one is: If you're meterless and your cancel-able stand on normal gets whiffed because of the opponent's tandem I-frames abuse, you can immediately cancel your normal to S623x to avoid a stand crash combo, and the only damage you will take is 2-3 since tandem damage scaling is very low 2nd, you can use S623x to meaty a few character with middle-volume wakeup speed (S5a > S5b > S6C xx S623x) though since it's slow it will always get blocked unless they're mashing Oh, and also, Stand on Bloody Summoning's pre-super flash I-frames are still present even after time stop, so you can use it as quick escape tool if you're caught off guard by a surprise time stop and don't have time for 214AA escape or 1f 623x
Given how "infamous" DIO's throw is for its badness, I have to wonder how much better he would be if it simply was always +0 on hit. I wonder the same for Hol Horse too of course.
the move where he sends the world out is more referencing the fact he appeared and punched hierophant green from the car, despite the distance being over 2 meters
I got into JoJo and fighting games around the same time, and after downloading fightcade, I thought I’d try out the JoJo fighting game I had heard nothing but praise for. I picked DIO. After a match, an ass-beating, and some advice, I spent the rest of the night in training mode, reading wikis, watching replays, and practicing moves. Such a fun, complex character.
numpad notation is what made motion inputs finally make sense to me. i got into fighting games with sfv, and struggled to consistently get exactly what input i wanted until GGST when i looked at dustloop and saw the numbers. after reading an explanation, i realized that the game is looking specifically for where your input ends to determine what special move comes out. numpad notation is the way
Let's not forget shadow Dio's super is actually cheaper than jot's or Dio's. You only need 2 bars to use it and 1 bar to unstop yourself from the other player's time stop.
honestly, I always found it weird how Jacket DIO is the unplayable and the "High" version that would be the superboss in any other game is the playable one
some things that I noticed were missing from the sdio segment were that knives are + on block, 663c is cancelable into 5s which makes it a good engage tool, and you can hold down 623aa to fly across the map
So what I hear is that regular DIO plays like Ash Crimson with the absurdly long, highly technical combos, while Shadow DIO plays like Iori Yagami, fake crossup and super high damage, easy combos.
I've watched a lot of your videos, somehow figured out myself what numbers meant as a directions and now, after all guides on characters of JoJo you start video with a notepad tutorial. Well, I hope it means more subscribers and wider audience
I think Shadow Dio knife special was inspiration for Ciel in Melty Blood. She also can use various follow ups when she throws knifes. And it was totally inspiration for one the character for indie fighting game Hinokakero - Silvis, guy who loves to toss various form of knifes who also have iconic circle of knifes as his ultimate.
Hey I don't know if you can but could you start making videos of the arcade game Fist of the North Star (I think it's also on PS2) I've seen some videos and it looks quite interesting with some mechanics I would appreciate it if you could read this lol
I remember the first time i got interested in fighting game was watching Joel Vinesauce play JoJo HFTF, and when he plays Dio I was hyped because he make Dio look so fun to play.
i want to play HFF so badly, but i can't because i can't get fightcade to work. The controller i use is a switch controller, which i think is the issue, but i'm not going to buy controllers for a console i don't own
@@ImInsideYourWalls Fighting game players when hitbox: 🥵 Fighting game players when basically the exact same thing but you can change the button layout anytime you want for more comfort: 🤨👎
Let's be honest, a good chunk of the fanbase got into JoJo thanks to that one flash animation of the roadroller. Thank you for getting me into the series, DIO-sama.
Ive seen some mugen variations of JJBA which includes variations of Dio like his Heaven Ascension state. There he feels like a proper boss character with things that make him much more annoying like a bit of passive health regeneration, a instant time stop, and a super that basically refills all his health. Also his AI is much better in heaven ascension mode, Im not sure if the AI includes input reading too.
Aw man I forgot how sick the movement is in this game. The training footage of just doing dash 5As is making me wanna hop back on this game at some point lol
Some of his sprites were traced off of DIO’s, like S.Dio knife throw for hamva-ga throw Jotaro’s point and several guilty gear X2 sprites were also used
11:03 im not good at fighting games, but i recognize a bad move when i see it. i used to play with my best friend on fightcade and he used jotaro, since the input is almost the same as the barrage but inverted, i made this move ALL the time on situations i didnt want to, and got punished everytime when it happened on an incredibly tight match i started maining hol horse more
You can play jacket DIO. In the arcade version the only problem is you have to know the code to do it and he's not a finished character. From what I heard he does function a little differently as well... With what's currently playable without mods and all that stuff. Heck Death 13 is playable as well you just need to mess with the Dip switches to make him useable.Hes not banned either but you need to agree with players to set him up.
The fact that this video starts with a numpad notation tutorial means we're gonna get freaky in the next 47 minutes

Fighting game boomers need QCF notation please. I'm too old. You even said Jab in the video.
@@IronsharpThe future is now, old man
@@HollyBunnySilly 1234 I smell a dumb dork
Damn I need to add notation. Do 1838452S for the critical art
The fact that the worst move in the game is what kills the Top Tier Kakyoin in canon seems like a twisted irony on Dio's part.
He won a one in a million matchup.
@@Hijiri_MIRACHIONHomeboy hit a timestop while in hitstun from the nets, he cheated, man...
Except that's not the punch that killed him. Dio's 214X is what killed Kakyoin.
It's not just that he used the worst move, he used it against Kak's best move (nets).
That's the move he used in the car
The irony that Dio stops time for his grab, but he's the one who gets minus on it.
His 30 page monologue in 6 seconds.
I feed backed your comments whit a Smiley face : )
12:32 “the eye lasers” The Space Ripper Stingy Eyes, thank you very much.

I've been calling it Bloody Stream all this time.
@@TailsClockoooohhhh that's good
@@TailsClockwhere did you get that from
Yeah, but "eye lasers" sounds at least 50% less rediculous.
Honestly, Stand-On 623x is the most DIO move imaginable in the context of DIO as a character.
Yes, he's begging you to try something - the man thinks he's (fucking) invincible.
to his credit that's mostly true against a good chunk of characters if he fights in the night
Yeah, it's a flavor success; it's unfortunately also a function failure. I wonder if it would have been salvagable if it was some weird projectile-counter hybrid, like a warped version of Shadow DIO's counter.
This truly has been our The Sun.

numpad notation is what made motion inputs finally make sense to me. i got into fighting games with sfv, and struggled to consistently get exactly what input i wanted until GGST when i looked at dustloop and saw the numbers. after reading an explanation, i realized that the game is looking specifically for where your input ends to determine what special move comes out. numpad notation is the way
Let's not forget shadow Dio's super is actually cheaper than jot's or Dio's. You only need 2 bars to use it and 1 bar to unstop yourself from the other player's time stop.
I actually fell for the shadow dio cut lmao super informative video
2:22 midlers stand def is so high because her teeth are supposedly harder than diamond
And we all know diamond is unbreakable
I'm not good at 2D fighters and holy mackarels, it's so frustrating the amount of times I've used this goddamn move 10:55 by accident...
honestly, I always found it weird how Jacket DIO is the unplayable and the "High" version that would be the superboss in any other game is the playable one
DIO being the hardest character to master makes sense considering he's a contender for one of the most skilled stand users in series
some things that I noticed were missing from the sdio segment were that knives are + on block, 663c is cancelable into 5s which makes it a good engage tool, and you can hold down 623aa to fly across the map
So what I hear is that regular DIO plays like Ash Crimson with the absurdly long, highly technical combos, while Shadow DIO plays like Iori Yagami, fake crossup and super high damage, easy combos.
Oh so this is where Valentine from Skullgirls got her knife and time stop supers lmao
I love how your videos feel like they came out of an earlier era of UA-cam
Eye lasers?
It's Space Ripper Stingy Eyes, tvym.
When MrMixtape uploads 😃
These videos are therapy to me
I don't even play this game, but I've been enthralled since the start of the video.
Genuienly never understood what people were saying until you explained it. Because i barely play (especially on pc) fighting games
keep making videos, you're the bomb
0:19 poke on that thang
tu ah
these videos are nice man its great to see peope making content for this game again sjnce the scene has been kinda dying for the past few years
I've watched a lot of your videos, somehow figured out myself what numbers meant as a directions and now, after all guides on characters of JoJo you start video with a notepad tutorial. Well, I hope it means more subscribers and wider audience
I think Shadow Dio knife special was inspiration for Ciel in Melty Blood. She also can use various follow ups when she throws knifes. And it was totally inspiration for one the character for indie fighting game Hinokakero - Silvis, guy who loves to toss various form of knifes who also have iconic circle of knifes as his ultimate.
16:11 he must've been if he did it with all those women
Ngl I really like the numpad notation at the start. Even though I've been playing fighting games for a while
Hey I don't know if you can but could you start making videos of the arcade game Fist of the North Star (I think it's also on PS2) I've seen some videos and it looks quite interesting with some mechanics I would appreciate it if you could read this lol
41 minutes of mrmixtape i am eating GOOD tonight
I remember the first time i got interested in fighting game was watching Joel Vinesauce play JoJo HFTF, and when he plays Dio I was hyped because he make Dio look so fun to play.
Fine, I'll play DIO terribly again.
i want to play HFF so badly, but i can't because i can't get fightcade to work. The controller i use is a switch controller, which i think is the issue, but i'm not going to buy controllers for a console i don't own
get a cheap keyboard and call it a day
@trantrrus612 I can't play a fighting game on a keyboard...

Fighting game players when hitbox: 🥵
Fighting game players when basically the exact same thing but you can change the button layout anytime you want for more comfort: 🤨👎
@thosemerc3113 I don't use a hit box either. I just want to use a regular controller
have you tried joy2key?
Red stone of aja can punish road roller, imagine
Let's be honest, a good chunk of the fanbase got into JoJo thanks to that one flash animation of the roadroller. Thank you for getting me into the series, DIO-sama.
Ive seen some mugen variations of JJBA which includes variations of Dio like his Heaven Ascension state. There he feels like a proper boss character with things that make him much more annoying like a bit of passive health regeneration, a instant time stop, and a super that basically refills all his health. Also his AI is much better in heaven ascension mode, Im not sure if the AI includes input reading too.
Every game needs an insanely technical character that gets less reward than the bunga top tiers
YEAAAH SHADOW DIO VIDEO!!!!
Aw man I forgot how sick the movement is in this game. The training footage of just doing dash 5As is making me wanna hop back on this game at some point lol
Seeing all of dio's atacks remind me of ronald on mugen XD
Some of his sprites were traced off of DIO’s, like S.Dio knife throw for hamva-ga throw
Jotaro’s point and several guilty gear X2 sprites were also used
Me and my friends just started playing this game on fightcade. This game is so much fun.
i like to call shadow dio proto dio
11:03 im not good at fighting games, but i recognize a bad move when i see it.
i used to play with my best friend on fightcade and he used jotaro, since the input is almost the same as the barrage but inverted, i made this move ALL the time on situations i didnt want to, and got punished everytime
when it happened on an incredibly tight match i started maining hol horse more
You can play jacket DIO. In the arcade version the only problem is you have to know the code to do it and he's not a finished character. From what I heard he does function a little differently as well... With what's currently playable without mods and all that stuff.
Heck Death 13 is playable as well you just need to mess with the Dip switches to make him useable.Hes not banned either but you need to agree with players to set him up.
HNK Roah is also an uber popular end boss with a big execution floor.
Hi I am a fan of your channel.
how to time stop?
good ass video, instant subscribe
Damn, this reminds me of playing HFTF on my school Chromebook in the back of Social Studies
Wait..so this means Midler video got cancelled/delayed?
i know its version is unused and is only seen in storymode but jacket dio is... interesting
