Overview
- A suave, cool ladies man and captain of the Jellyfish Pirates, Johnny Sfondi makes his return in Revelator.
Johnny is an iaido style swordsman who completely dominates the neutral and offense game thanks to his famous Mist Finer stance (214P/K/S). His pokes are among the best in the entire game when utilizing his Mist Stance cancels (H to exit stance) which can also be made faster by landing some of the 8 coins that he naturally starts each match with. Any coin that hits an opponent completely buffs each version of his Mist Finers (up to level 3) which in turn gives them deadly properties for combos as well as making them faster all together, ultimately shortening the recovery of his base attacks and granting him incredible pressure on offense. Johnny's above average execution combined with his movement options can certainly seem daunting to inexperienced players, but in the right hands, he's one of the most dangerous and threatening characters to face. Finally, Johnny also wears sunglasses, a hat AND is voiced by Norio Wakamoto, which clearly makes him the coolest character in the game.

Unique Mechanics
Coin
Johnny has a unique resource in the form of coins. The number of coins that Johnny has is displayed above his tension meter. Johnny starts every round with 8 coins and does not get more coins until the start of the next round, or until he successfully hits the enemy with Treasure Hunt. Every time Johnny uses his Glitter Is Gold special, he throws one coin, which is subtracted from his remaining coin total. When Johnny has 0 coins remaining, he is unable to use Glitter Is Gold. When a coin hits the enemy, Johnny's Mist Finer special will level up to a maximum of Level 3, from a starting level of Level 1. Hitting an enemy with a coin when Johnny has level 3 Mist Finer will still do damage, but will not level up Mist Finer further. Whenever Mist Finer is used, Mist Finer will return to Level 1, and can be leveled up again.
