Abel Combos and Glitches

Guys I’m having a problem. Not with any character in specific… just retards that jump around constantly. I don’t know how to corner them (specially if they’re a chun or akuma) and since Abel has no projectiles I’m not sure how to get them cornered. Should I just turtle until they stop?

Yeah, this can be annoying. You just have to be smart about what your doing. If they are constantly jumping back do a few jab falling skys to build meter. J.hp, and j.mk in the right places. Perfectly timed rolls. And if you have ultra meter you need to perfectly time and space an ultra so they land on it. Wheel kicks can help to, but they can be real iffy sometimes.

True, if its deep enough.

Can someone direct me to a post with resets please? I’ve been messing around with Abel and his resets are super cool, should be fun to use in casuals :smile: .

What do you guys think of crouch short xx crouch jab x3 xx dash? I really like using this block string on an opponent that’s waking up, it keeps you close for a command grab, and the dash usually allows me to bait a shoryu.

I think you should trade in one of those c.jabs for a f+mk.

Also today, I was fighting dhalsim. He did a wake-up ultra as i tried to tornado grab him. His ultra went off as a reversal but the best part is that I then proceeded to still grab him and throw him without being burned. I think it was an EX-tornado but I can’t remember.

The thing is people I play with expect the dash cancel after the toward forward, so doing it from the jab surprises them and puts them in shoryu mode

If you do it right though, they can expect the dash all day long since our next hit can combo as well.

Are you saying that you can link toward forward from crouch jab?

Only on counter hit

That tornado throw has weird properties… On several occasions I have attempted to tornado throw someone on wakeup and proceeded to eat a jab or another random hit first then immediately after they get thrown. Shouldn’t my input have been cancelled?

EDIT they were the ones grounded not me

I only wish That dhalsim could get burned by his own giant fireball cause thats where my throw put him, right into the fire. It would’ve rocked so hard if the fight finished with him eating his own ultra.

ive gotten every single combo down to like 95% accuracy except the f-mk in to standing fp to mp rekka combo. for some reason i cant combo into the standing fierce after the fwd dash mk. i spent a great deal of time in training mode trying to get the timing down right now i say im about 30% on this combo. this would greatly increase my arsenal with abel as i have most of his combos embedded into my muscle memory.

what the hell is SA3?

Most likely level 3 saving attack , SA3 usually refers to the 3rd super art in 3rd strike.

yes it is saving attack level3(unblockable)

Well the regular tornado throw beats out all other throws. The ex one beats out most moves (not shoryu) but not throws. So maybe that’s why you’ve been getting mixed results?

What about this?

cr.HP, EX fdf P

Does this one work?

cr.HP,Ultra

cross up Mk, HP, super.

jsut a few iknow off the top of my head.

-CR.mp-> LP COD -> EXFC(FADC)->Cr.HP->

  • lk roll ->falling sky
  • lk roll -> super
  • Ill decipher more soon…
