Against honda, and in general, i would definetly go for the random CoD FADC a lot less. since honda’s a charge character he’s likely to be blocking simply to hold his charge.

In the first link, that round where Abel won was awesome. Didn’t know Abel could TT Zangief out of his Super.
Is c.hp. better to use then c.mk when an opponent jumps in on you? I see it used a lot in the first video and I’m so used to c.mk. that I never bother with c.hp.
TT > all of Giefs grabs including super and ultra.
I cant really say which is better, all has their uses/timing/spacing (you have to decide when to use which), of course the most damaging is AA cr.hp since you can also ultra off it(even when it trades sometimes). Plus it also depends on what kinds of jump-ins, for example ryu’s j.hp beats c.mk and cr.hp most if not all the time. I find it hard to answer that question without going character specific… Gief j.hp beats cr.mk/cr.hp iirc, but loses to ex fs (and if it trades you can ultra)… I could be wrong though, lately im too stressed out with work and have no real time to play lol. Godsgarden is tomorrow and i think my execution is getting weaker with the little practice i managed to get. meh.
TT is unthrowable. Gief super is a throw. How do people not know this stuff at this point?
Abel doesn’t have a catch-all anti-air move. To anti-air effectively with Abel, you need to use a combination of Stand Forward, Low Forward, Stand Fierce, Low Fierce, Jump Fierce (jump back, jump forward, and neutral jump, depending on the situation) and neutral jump Roundhouse, IMO.
Cool, thanks guys!
Just so anybody who might be a little confused on why you get spd’d out of TT sometimes, MEATY TT > all of giefs grabs. It will also grab the startup of a non-jump-canceled lariat, and any green hand

Im a seth mainer but I have recently picked up abel as my alt for about 4 weeks now and I would like to know of what yall think and how I can improve and such.
please, dont sugar coat it. If i suck tell me but tell me how to improve.
Edit: One thing I noticed after rewatching the vids is that rose has to small a hitbox for the F.mk-S.HP link? or am i doing it wrong?
It’s too late at night to watch all of them and try anything detailed, so a major point would be to calm down with the jumping. All it does is get you thrown or hit by anti-air if you don’t space it right. And try not to do it at all against Ryu or Sagat.
And Rose, like just about any female character, is a total bitch to fight as Abel but can’t take a hit. Just block and wait for an opportunity rather than hopping around. Against every female character, what with their blockstrings and safe specials (except for Cammy, but she still manages to be a bad matchup for Abel), you just have to get used to blocking, because it only takes one or two attacks/ combos to even it out again.
HFZ69 on stream right now i think
i didn’t watch all the videos but i really like the reset in to fmk combo ultra ya did, kinda of risky to give up the first ultra chance like that but it paid off
Hey, resres, were you at Fuller’s (Destruct1ve’s) this past Thursday?
hot shit!
Alright I shall learn more patience.
Well Like you said I wanted to try the reset to see if it would work…and it did. but normally in serious matches I wouldve just went for the ultra.
No I was not, but my friends went. I’m gonna take a break from going out of the way to play SF4 for right now cause I need to concentrate on school so not sure you’ll see me there any time soon. =/
