The range of their attacks is restricted, but their special abilities might cover a larger area. Close-range Stands are more precise than other types of Stands as they tend to remain close to their user.
10 The Hand
The Hand is possessed by Nijimura Okuyasu, which severely undermined the Stand’s potential. It can erase anything from existence. To accomplish this, the object or the person must be struck by the right hand of the Stand. Once struck by the Stand, it is impossible to revert an object to its previous state.
9 Kiss
Kiss is the Stand of Ermes Costello and it is among the Stands with the most potential. Ermes used the Stand exceptionally well and it saved her on countless occasions. The Stand can create stickers and once a sticker is placed on a surface, it creates a duplicate of the object. When the sticker is taken off, the two objects crash against each other and cause severe damage.
8 Stone Free
Wielded by Jolyne, the protagonist of Stone Ocean, Stone Free is a resilient Stand with a lot of potential to grow. Stone Free has excellent physical power, and its attacking power is compared to that of a meteor.

1 Tusk Act IV
Tusk Act IV is the final form of Johnny’s Stand. The Stand is extremely powerful as it is powered by the Golden Spin. With the help of the Golden Spin, Tusk’s attacks have infinite energy. When a person is attacked by Tusk Act IV, they are inflicted with an infinite spinning motion.
