Deals massive damage on hit and block, and is safe at far ranges. Reaches fullscreen, too, making it a useful chip-kill tool. As a neutral tool, it's not as helpful as just running or jumping due to how fast Jack is, though. | |||
At low Spirit, this move deals 24 damage and only has 6 active frames. Given the one advantage of the regular version was damage, this isn't very helpful. | |||

Big and funny, but way too slow to justify using, since it does the same damage as Knuckle Pad with less range, and Knuckle Pad was already not a great move. | |||
At low Spirit, this move travels a very short distance forward before attacking. Useless. | |||

A 12f overhead might sound crazy, but don't get too excited; it whiffs on crouchers for most of its active frames, so you're actually looking at something closer to a 35-40f overhead. It's death on block, too, making this another move that's just way too risky in spite of its massive upfront reward. | |||
At low Spirit, the forward momentum of this special is cut in half. Still terrible. | |||

Bonkers command grab. You can grab people out of both hitstun and blockstun with this move, and if the opponent's out of range, rather than whiffing, Jack will just use his 5LK/5HK instead depending on button hold. You can buffer this behind just about anything to guarantee a huge chunk of health off any hit or blocked light. The only downside is its bad frame advantage, meaning the oki midscreen is pretty bad, but the damage and corner carry are pretty worth it. Also, it's a 1f grab, making it a powerful defensive tool. | |||
At low Spirit, this move does 8 damage. There aren't any other changes, so this is actually still pretty scary. You really wish you had the meter to deal some more damage, but if you've gotten them in the corner, killing them via inescapable throw loop in increments of 8 damage is just as good as increments of 30. | |||

None of the 3 hits combo into each other, so even if you somehow hit the pretty slow first hit, you'll get the next two blocked and eat whatever punish the opponent can muster. Does pretty solid chip damage on block, so it might be useful for chip kills due to the range. | |||

Just like Brain Shock, this can grab people out of hitstun or blockstun and will whiff with punch buttons instead of a whiff animation, making this a devastating up-close option and useful in every situation Brain Shock is. Minus on hit, but you probably should've killed them with this if you're late enough in the round to use it so it's fine. | |||

Story
Jack is one of Mr. Big's highest ranked men. He runs his own gang called the Neo Black Cats, and hangs frequently at bars around South Town. He has formed rivalries with many of the underground thugs crawling in South Town, and even has beef with King. After his defeat from Ryo and Robert in AOF1, Jack continued to lead his gang, until he was invited to the King of Fighters tournament.
Introduction
Jack only wants one thing: to get in, force you into the corner, and trap you in a throw loop. Jack is built like a tank, with the damage output of one too, but quicker and with better effective range than you'd think.
In addition, Jack will only take 85% of the damage dealt to him once he dips below 75% health, will only take 70% damage once he dips below 50% health, and will only take 60% damage once he's below 25% health, all non-inclusive. This makes him a uniquely tanky character in a game with mostly-universal health.
