Revision as of 18:18, 16 May 2024

PLAYING AS JOHANN

Johann is unplayable in the MVS version of ROTD. You can unlock Johann in the AES version by pressing and holding A,B,C,D after you select your characters. You must hold the buttons until the round starts. Johann only has one color palette and will borrow the color palette of your last-picked character.

STORY

Johann is a rich man who owns an island in Sunshine Bay, in which he has a mansion that is used as a shrine by the Black Dragon cult. Johann is possessed by the Black Dragon spirit, which is an evil entity destined to bring chaos and destruction into the world. Johann is seen as a prodigious man among members of the Black Dragon sect because he was able to tame and dominate the black dragon spirit at a young age. Details about his life are surrounded by mystery, even some people believe he comes from another world.

Johann once was under de guidance of Lee Song, being expelled due to his ambition and negative personality. After that, Johann developed great anger and hate for his former master and eventually joined the black dragon cult taking from his master dojo a sealed scroll to set free the spirit of the black dragon after killing him. Johann's objective is to find and eliminate the owners of the remaining dragon spirits to absorb their powers and to create a new world ruled by his cult.

Trivia

1. Johann uniquely has an infinite guard and stun meter, so he cannot be stunned or guard broken. Johann lacks some of the core mechanics of ROTD like First Impact, not having an attack on a tag in, and not attacking in a duplex which causes the opponent to be infinitely stunned.

2. Johann's taunt makes him float.

3. In arcade mode, Johann can be beaten cheaply by using impact and jabbing then impact again. The AI will not block no matter what difficulty level.

4. Johann may be playable in the upcoming Rage Of The Dragons NEO port. May God have mercy on our souls..

-==Command Moves==
+Johann once was under de guidance of Lee Song, being expelled due to his ambition and negative personality. After that, Johann developed great anger and hate for his former master and eventually joined the black dragon cult taking from his master dojo a sealed scroll to set free the spirit of the black dragon after killing him. Johann's objective is to find and eliminate the owners of the remaining dragon spirits to absorb their powers and to create a new world ruled by his cult.<br>
-N/A
-==Special Moves==
-'''Shadow Ball'''<br>
-:214A - Johann throws a fireball with a dragon imprint in it. Very cool, Joann! Recovery for this move doesn't finish unless the fireball goes off-screen or makes contact with an opponent.<br>
-'''Realm Slash'''<br>
+----
-:214B - Johann does a leaping back slash. Recovers quickly.<br>
-'''Hell's Dragon'''
+=====Trivia=====
-:214C - Johann slams his hand against the ground, making a pillar of energy shoot upwards. The projectile shot goes all the way up to the end of the screen.<br>
+:1. Johann uniquely has an infinite guard and stun meter, so he cannot be stunned or guard broken. Johann lacks some of the core mechanics of ROTD like First Impact, not having an attack on a tag in, and not attacking in a duplex which causes the opponent to be infinitely stunned.
-'''You're Already Dead'''<br>
+:2. Johann's taunt makes him float.
-:214D - Johann lifts you up by the neck with one hand and explodes you with black dragon magic.. This is a command grab and can be combined into. The animation and damage are shared with Johann's actual grab. <br>
-==Super Moves==
+:3. In arcade mode, Johann can be beaten cheaply by using impact and jabbing then impact again. The AI will not block no matter what difficulty level.
-'''Dragon Nightmare'''<br>
-:214-1236B/D - Johann charges up a big energy ball around him, splits it in half, and launches it behind him and in front of him. Like most of Johann's moves, this one also has a dragon imprint in the energy ball. Both versions are the same except the heavy kick version gets an additional hitbox upon start-up, making it easier to link into combos.<br>
-==Duplex Attack==
+:4. Johann may be playable in the upcoming Rage Of The Dragons NEO port. May God have mercy on our souls..
-Johann cannot initiate a duplex. However, he will participate in a duplex but will not attack. Since there is no attack, the opponent will be stunned until Johann attacks the opponent.<br>
