Costumes
Command List
In combat, Jolyne uses various abilities featured in Stone Ocean.
Most importantly, this skill offers Jolyne a method to perform a high-low mix-up attack; An opponent that expects an aerial attack and accordingly tries to defend while standing can be met with her suddenly landing and delivering a crouching, low attack. Inversely, the threat of such action can make the opponent wary of the sudden low attack, potentially rendering them more vulnerable to a simple aerial strike.
- Light (): The barrage is delivered normally, and sends the opponent flying. When used in mid-air, this variation can hit a downed opponent.
- Medium () or Heavy (): Stone Free unravels its arms to greatly extend its range, but the attack no longer knocks the opponent off their feet.
In the English localization, this HHA is renamed "Balls deep!", and Jolyne initiates the HHA asking, "How deep can I go?"
Gameplay Overview
Jolyne is a rushdown character who specializes in highly advanced mobility and mix-up potential. Wielding both a fast-fall skill and a command jump skill that can function as a pseudo-double jump, she is capable of a variety of possible jump arcs. These in turn lead into many possible approach, evasion, and mix-up and cross-up options once she leaves the ground, and even methods to render attack strings safe and extend her combos and offense. Possessing long-ranged normal attacks and skills and a trap gives Jolyne multiple ways to battle her opponent from far outside most characters' effective ranges.
Jolyne's most major flaw is a lack of an anti-air/reversal attack while in Stand Off, meaning she is vulnerable to aerial approaches and usually forced on the defensive if she does not have Stone Free active should the opponent get within range to threaten her, although a parry-like skill helps to alleviate this. She also deals less damage than most characters, and also requires much greater skill to deliver longer, effective combos.
Jolyne can battle at many ranges and is highly effective on both offense and defense as a result, but is most dangerous at close range where her versatile movement options allow her to confuse opponents and easily exploit attack openings. When used to her full extent, she never leaves herself open to punishment, but is always leaving the opponent guessing what angle she'll attack from next.
