The Rebellion Gauge is Joker’s fighter ability in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate.
Overview
The Rebellion Gauge is a gray meter with a black frame, which is present next to Joker's portrait at all times. By default, it has a red splash around it, but if the match is in Mementos and Persona 3 or Persona 4 music is playing, the splash's color changes to blue or yellow, respectively. As the Rebellion Gauge fills, the gray is replaced with pink.
The Rebellion Gauge slowly fills over time, but can be more efficiently filled by (in increasing order of effectiveness): one of Joker's teammates being KO'd, one of Joker's teammates being attacked, Joker himself being attacked (which causes a spark matching the color of the splash at the right end of the Gauge), and Joker being attacked while using Rebel's Guard.
When the meter is filled, Arsene is summoned and the Rebellion Gauge turns cyan with blue flames behind it. Arsene remains active to boost Joker's abilities until the Rebellion Gauge runs out, which takes 30 seconds. Taking damage causes larger portions to be removed. Once the Rebellion Gauge depletes fully, Arsene leaves Joker and the meter resets to its default state. Joker is invincible during the time Arsene arrives and leaves the field.
Several instances can temporarily halt the depletion of the activated Rebellion Gauge. These include:
- Joker getting stunned:
- Joker falling asleep.
- Entering any cannon, such as:
- The Barrel Cannon on Kongo Jungle (SSB) or Kongo Falls.
- The cannons in The Great Cave Offensive.
- The cannons in a Stage Builder level.
- Getting trapped in a barrel in Wrecking Crew.
- Using a Bullet Bill.
- An enemy landing a cutscene Final Smash, such as Stampede! or Blue Falcon. This applies even if Joker is caught in the move, although damage taken will still reduce his Rebellion Gauge.
Technical Data
The Rebellion Gauge fills in units, calculated by 1.3 * the damage Joker receives throughout the battle if he is hit. For example, a move dealing 3% will fill the gauge by 3.9 units. Taking around 76.92% (the actual calculation for this, 100 divided by 1.3, results in a very long number) will give enough units for Arsene every time. It will also passively generate units, at 0.00925 per Frame. In a more readable format, it fills at 1.11 units every 2 seconds; after 3 minutes spent without taking any damage, Joker will automatically summon Arsene. If a teammate takes damage, the gauge will also fill, calculated by 1.3 * the damage received by the teammate. If Joker uses Rebel's Guard, the gauge will fill by 1.3 * 0.4 * 6.7368 * the damage taken, instantly filling it after taking 28.6% damage or more. [1]
When the Rebellion Gauge reaches 100 Units, Arsene will appear for 30 seconds, or 1800 frames. If Joker is hit during this time period, the Rebellion Gauge will decrease by 12 * the damage received, provided two or three players are present, only this time in frames rather than units (to calculate in seconds, divide the result by 60). A move dealing 20% in an 1v1 battle will subtract 240 frames, or 4 seconds, from the Rebellion Gauge. Depending from the number of players in a match, the multiplier for the depletion of the Rebellion Gauge changes; it will use a 10.2 multiplier for a 4 players match, 8.6 for 5 players, 7.8 for 6 players, 7 for 7 players and 6.3 for 8 players. [2]
If Joker is KO'd at any point, the meter will reset at 20 units regardless of how filled it was beforehand. If Joker is behind in stocks, the gauge will fill at a faster rate. However, the specifics for this are still unknown. [3]
Trivia
- If Joker is in Training Mode, increasing his damage percentage through the menu has an immediate effect on his Rebellion Gauge. This can be most easily noticed by setting his damage from 0% to 999%, in which case his Rebellion Gauge will fill or empty instantly. Decreasing his damage has no effect.
