>What? Hamon explicitky wont amp Joseph. Hamon cant do that. Josephs power is his power and excluding that part three joseph took an attack from za warudo. Far above what boss had done and can do. Part three joseph not part four.
No, hamon
DOES amplify your power. It's a source of energy meant to be gathered upon to enhance your physical being. It should be
common sense that they aren't normally strong enough to physically go toe to toe with vampires (talking about pure strength, not them being allergic to it) but I see how you could make the argument that it is their own strength, though it's still untrue. It's best illustrated when Jonathan recieves the Deep Pass Overdrive, and it allows him to break out of the metal collar that Tarkus
admitted he was unable to do himself. Lisa Lisa also said that her training will allow Joseph to run a hundred miles without breaking a sweat, so hamon
clearly does enhance your physical being. I'd also like to point out he never got hit by The World, but rather debris that was sent flying by The World, so while he's still a durable bastard, he doesn't scale to The World's attack potency.
>Are ya forgetting joseph is a master martial artist also and probably a better one than boss as he took traning from lisa and was on par with caesar that fought wham and almost defeated him and only lost due to an fluke and can do shit no normal human could do even at his age of part three? Joseph probably outskills and outlasts boss also from his feats alone. Him forgetting his martial art and being way weaker? Merely headcanon. Not once stated or even implied within part three and he obviously wont fight a city block busting stand with hamon. Excluding the fact hamon explicitly wont boost ap and natural durability anyway(which is thousands above big boss anyway). Also hamon would heal the wound .
No, I did not forget that Joseph has partaken in martial arts before, but that's
Battle Tendency Joseph, aka, a long ass time ago Joseph. If it was part 2, then
maybe he'd have a better case in terms of CQC, but in his old age, there's
no reaso to suggest he's just as adept as before.
He hasn't demonstrated any martial art feats in part 3, probably due to a lack of upkeep, something real martial artists have to do. He has no reason to, he's already physically emposing and the greatest threat at the time is already long gone, so of course he's not going to train. We've already seen his proficency with hamon go downhill too. His most hated phrase is "
hard work ", so why would he still be adept in CQC after all these years? And the reason he's able to do some bullshit in part 3 is because he's a
6'5" buff guy, clearly not a "normal human".
>Josephs range is literally dozens of meters with hp and he can easy with minimal effort crush boss. And drop hp? Why? He can dodge bullets himself. Implying bullets would harm joseph . And joseph had fought beings far more skilled than boss deafeted and won on top and then asspulled a win on kars despite the odd. For experience Joseph had won fighting enemies with far more cunning skill and experience and laid traps despite fighting wham .
His range is
irrelevant, Boss will determine his range by testing how close he can get to him without Joseph initiating attack, he's an expert at combat. He can dodge gunfire, granted, but not if he's standing there binding him with Hermit Purple. Bullets
WILL harm Joseph, how wanked can you get? They
probably won't kill him seeing as how he's taken strikes from Whamu, but they'll
definitely make him bleed. Why else would he need to block machine gun fire from Santana? Big Boss has
10x more experience than Joseph, seeing as how he's not only trained but constantly upkept by the government, but also has defeated 6 games worth of MGS villains, which add up to like 15 in total. We don't use "oh he's pulled asspulls before" as a legitimate reason why someone would win.
>Ya forgot incapacitation or making and creating a handful of plans and finding out the geography or items that would defeat boss or while ooc he can rupture organ or mind rwading or mobility from the buildings or protecting himself or even dragging boss within range for an overdrive. Of which not at any point did he state he forget how.
I didn't forget, it's just irrelevant to this fight. Also, Hermit Purple cannot crush him LMAO, it's 10-C on his profile, and Joseph hasn't used it to crush a person before, so more wank. Maybe he can use it to combo attacks, but seeing as how Big Boss is a CQC expert, again, I think it'll just end up being detrimental to him. And mind reading? When has it ever read someones mind?
