Did a big update to the Abel wiki

Hi SaKeido:

Thanks for putting so much works updating the Abel WIKI.
I’ve learned a lot after reading it and I really appriciated it!
I have one question tho. Why it says Abel’s cr.mk damage is 80, but I look through the frame data and it says 60?

Crouching Forward A wonky looking kick that is better than Gouken’s similar one. 1 frame slower than crouching strong, with roughly the same range. The key difference is in how this move shifts Abel’s hitbox; he himself leans back before the move before sticking his foot out. That makes this move a better anti-air. It works best against shallow jump ins and then can be canceled into a roll, giving you an ambiguous cross up. Due to the way Abel moves, it is also an effective counterpoke against characters like Sagat, Bison and Vega who have high, fast roundhouse kicks. It can combo directly into jab change of direction. It unreliably dodges Fuerte’s run throws because of how it moves Abel’s head but is generally not capable of stuffing them. It takes practice to use this kick well and to choose properly between this, standing close fp and c.fp for anti-airing jump ins.

Startup: 8 frames

Damage: 80

Combos Into: jab change of direction, super

I learned a lot of stuff from reading this. Some might have already been here but good job. Abel’s moves are interesting, with each having there own invincibility against a certain thing. That is real interesting, for example his super.

Nice =D

Thanks for the wiki! I’m new to SF (fighting games in general) and your wiki info helped me get started on Abel.

If I can give one suggestion, it would be to list some of the BnB combos (just like you did with Combos with/without Super meter). That would really help newcomers save some time

Hey sakeido, think you could put in a little information on all of his air attacks aswell?
That would be useful.

The cr. fwd can also be canceled into st. CoD.

Same with standing strong, it sometimes works into strong CoD but it isn’t reliable… I am only recommending stuff that will work 100% of the time. I will re-test to be sure.

That is the plan eventually, been a little busy lately to do an update

I am going to change up the whole combo section so that it is easier to read and gives exact damage & stun for all of Abel’s combos. Just as an excuse to use my HD recording rig I am going to make an Abel combo vid too… practical combos though, from the easiest to hardest.

Glad you guys like it. That is a typo AhDee, I will fix that right now.
