Abel players of XBL!

Well hot damn, we’ll have to play! :slight_smile:

Hopefully I’ll have more luck connecting to you than I’ve had most local players. For some reason it never connects :frowning:

I’m an AVERAGE abel, I know basics but need to learn execution. who can I add to learn?

add me kraiden3
im like 32 years old man, I cant adapt and move as fast as the new breeds my fingers are slow but when I say i am working hard on this game i mean i am working** HARD **to get better

i play at least twice a day though so finding me wont be hard. but i am around 1000 bp player

I NEED HELP AND ADVICE BADLY YALL!!

Please put me on the list! FujiwaraDashing for PSN since I will be selling my 360 version of SF IV. I like mirror matches and would like to get better with Abel so I can stand a chance at the Street Fighter IV Tournament at Otakon 2009 in July. Also, just to get better. :slight_smile:

the only character who you should be having problems applying fwd.mk pressure against is balrog, and he’s a big enough character that cl.fp should hit all the time, even when he’s crouching, and using a meter for ex.tt isn’t a waste at all, it’s part of his mix-up, if they see you in their face with one bar of meter, they’ll think twice about throwing random pokes, but ur right in that point, but remember, this is Abel we are talking about, its supposed to be harder for us to win, but victory tastes sweeter this way. On another note, it actually matters how the move will be used in the future, remember Aegis Reflector? how people thought it was a completely useless move and how Urien was lower tier back when 3s came out? Well i see the same happening with Abel, only not as revolutionary as Aegis, but fwd.mk has alot of potential imo.

Don’t know where best to type this so here will do.

1151 online wins
4600ish BP
Hundreds of hours played.

All with Abel… and I have JUST pulled off my very first CoD xx FADC -> c. FP -> Falling Sky combo in actual competition. I am happy happy happy happy! Not least because it won me a game against a decent Guile with a fraction of my life left.

Keep the faith Abel fellows! It might not be as easy as Forward Down DownForward Punch but its way more rewarding!

OK now you can bitch at me and tell me I should be doing this bread and butter shit in every game :smiley:

Im looking to share Strategy, tips, and any information with other Abel players. I want to push Abel up the tier list. Im willing to help out new players with basic Abel strategy, but I cant say what my “skill level” would be.

im willing to pass down some tips to aspiring abel players im also looking for an a person who wants to spar wit abel.but only if u have a mic.lol. my tag is CQC GREY FOX

rog isn’t the only one with a 3 frame jab. And I know there are answers, but it’s hella frustrating to get beat with a damn jab after you managed to get in.

f.mk is nice on hit, on block it’s weaksauce. +1 is nothing.

Gamertag CeramicSugar and from Seattle, WA. I been playing abel since it came out to my arcade. I would love to get some good sparring matches with other abel players. I’m not the best out there but im certaintly not bad and can give some tips and help to players with less experience as me.

I play Abel for fun here and there, but I’ve heard my Abel is pretty beast by Ruin and the likes.

I actually play Abel to beat Zangief rather than my Boxer.

Au Mno is my XBL.

Are you c-c-craaaaazy ?!?! I’m not sure what the boxer vs. zangief matchup is like, but i can guarantee it’s not as bad as the abel vs. zangief matchup ahaha

Power to you for wompin’ some Gief’s though

If anyone is down for a match send me an invite

I main Abel but I try out other characters too.

It’s weird, really…

Boxer v Gief is already a bad matchup, but I play it well.

When I lose though, which is mostly to my friend(#1 Gief, usually 1-3 going against the cluster of Sagats in top 5(Ruin, Suhpreme, etc.) and his roommate, who is like the #2 Gief, I have to rely on Abel. lol.

Actually Abel is usually my go-to guy when I start losing, I just play smarter when I know he has limited abilities maybe. As opposed to being reckless with Boxer. It’s sad really, Ruin tells me not to play a shit character(Stick to my Boxer), but when I win, I win. :x

I know I faced some of you guys last night, late night… I just wanted to say sorry I sucked. It was 4 in the morning, I was working on a paper mid fights, and I was drunk as shit! Always fun though!

i just joined a few minutes ago for this very purpose. irony.

maybe i’ve played with some of you? I find it to be too rare to play against any abel :wasted:

I’m considering using either Dhalsim or Abel(or both, but for right now, I’ll take my time to learn them one by one) as an alt. So far, I’ve found Abel to be more fun, so if anyone has any tips for me, share them :]

I think I am an okay abel. I hover around 1500 and 1600 BP at the moment. Please put me on the list, since my .vs Abel game is a little weak.
