Overview | edit source
The World Alternate Universe (or THE WORLD, more commonly abbreviated as TWAU) is the Stand of Diego Brando from Another World (shortened to Alternate Diego Brando) featured in Part 7 of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. It can be obtained by using the Rib Cage of the Saint's Corpse, with a 25% chance.

Compared to its original self, TWAU focuses more on range combat due to its decreased cooldown with knives and access to another range option- the revolver. Lack of a Stand Jump also decreases potential mobility for engaging or disengaging from combat. Despite this, TWAU has slightly more crowd control options as it can blind other players with its smoke bombs. TWAU can also combine the effects of the Smoke Bomb with the revolver to cause an explosion, ragdolling anyone within its range.

Combined with either Boxing, Spin or Vampirism, this Stand is typically seen as really powerful. Boxing allows the user to land combos, with its uppercut allowing them to gain distance away with the increase in dash distance, aiding the poorer mobility of this Stand compared to The World. Spin, however, increases the zoning potential of this Stand. The knives and revolver can be used even when the Stand is deactivated or removed via Whitesnake.

Much like The World, however, Gold Experience Requiem can counter its Time Stop with Return to Zero. Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap, D4C: Love Train and other TWAU/D4C users can detonate your smoke bombs. Total Skill Points: 48 Points
