'''Jouske''' ('''丈助''') is a well-renowned [[Smash 64]] {{SSB|Samus}}  player from [[Hokkaidō|Hokkaidō, Japan]], with his former dominance in his home country being one which spans multiple years. He is one of the largest contributors to {{SSB|Samus}}'s metagame, and is considered to be one of the greatest Samus players of all time. Although he has not entered a formal tournament since 2016, he is still considered one of the greatest Smash 64 players of all time, despite only competing in Japan. He is well known for his mastery of [[spacing]], flow-charting, and combo game with Samus, and has remained as an inspiration for Samus players universally.
While he has attempted to remain withdrawn from the spotlight, his dedication to the character is one idolized by many, and his picture is in circulation despite his best efforts. His proclamation for others to travel to him to prove their worth is one taken seriously by players such as {{Sm|SuPeRbOoMfAn}} and {{Sm|Isai}} as both have travelled and lost in [[twelve character battle]]s (a format of the game recognised as the best determinant of skill).
==History==
Jouske's wins include the Kanto ''Smash 64'' tournaments in 2009, 2012, and 2013, and a 200 person online tournament known as ''Smash 64'' Spring Online Tournament. He is also the first player in the world to have won a 12 character battle against {{Sm|Isai}}, and the only player for many years until {{Sm|Kurabba}} at {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2023}}. Against {{Sm|SuPeRbOoMfAn}}, he has a winning record of 3-0 in 12 character battles in the US version, and a 1-1 record in 12 character battles in the Japanese version.
Following a 2nd place finish at [[Kansai 2015]], Jouske announced on his Twitter he would enter a temporary hiatus period, which lasted for 1 month.

'''Jousuke''' is the top Japanese SSB64 player. He is considered to be the top Samus main in the world, one of few positions not contested with [[Isai]], due to winning all of the recent Kanto tournament, such as the one on August 25th, 2012 with 150 people. Jousuke also plays all other characters at a high level as seen in his various 12 character crew battles. He is known for his incredible if inhuman spacing, something required to be a top Samus main and his fancy use of the last hit of Samus's f-air to link devastating finishers.
==Trivia==
*Jouske has stated he would never travel overseas to compete with other players, and thinks that if a player believes they can beat him, they should take the initiative to travel to Japan.  
*Jouske dislikes being photographed or videotaped.
*His name is based on the character Josuke Higashikata from ''{{s|wikipedia|JoJo's Bizarre Adventure}}''.

Location Sapporo, Hokkaido Japan

Jouske (丈助) is a well-renowned Smash 64 Samus player from Hokkaidō, Japan, with his former dominance in his home country being one which spans multiple years. He is one of the largest contributors to Samus's metagame, and is considered to be one of the greatest Samus players of all time. Although he has not entered a formal tournament since 2016, he is still considered one of the greatest Smash 64 players of all time, despite only competing in Japan. He is well known for his mastery of spacing, flow-charting, and combo game with Samus, and has remained as an inspiration for Samus players universally.

While he has attempted to remain withdrawn from the spotlight, his dedication to the character is one idolized by many, and his picture is in circulation despite his best efforts. His proclamation for others to travel to him to prove their worth is one taken seriously by players such as SuPeRbOoMfAn and Isai as both have travelled and lost in twelve character battles (a format of the game recognised as the best determinant of skill).

History[edit]

Jouske's wins include the Kanto Smash 64 tournaments in 2009, 2012, and 2013, and a 200 person online tournament known as Smash 64 Spring Online Tournament. He is also the first player in the world to have won a 12 character battle against Isai, and the only player for many years until Kurabba at Super Smash Con 2023. Against SuPeRbOoMfAn, he has a winning record of 3-0 in 12 character battles in the US version, and a 1-1 record in 12 character battles in the Japanese version.

Following a 2nd place finish at Kansai 2015, Jouske announced on his Twitter he would enter a temporary hiatus period, which lasted for 1 month.
