“I can’t read Japanese and I have no idea what the fuck I’m supposed to do. I managed to finish almost all of Sol’s missions (got up to damn Gold Sol in the last mission and lost, oh well)”
instant kill the bastard…not to hard to beat him though. Sol is a good character to fight a gold character with. Keep em locked down.
I’ve been playing Order-Sol since slash hit ps2. Finally starting to win some with him now, and it feels good. I still suck though.
I can attest to this fact.
Is ABA any good? I’ve also bought the GG series but never really played them. Recently I’ve decided to start learning so I’m pretty sure I’m going to import Slash. I was just trying to figure out who I wanted to play and I think she looks really cool
A.B.A. isn’t a bad character, lots of damage, lots of setups, but she takes damage like a bitch, and consistantly loses health when she’s doing anything decent.
Also, there’s a glitch that insures some characters a free instant kill, or, if not that, a free combo off any knockdown.
She actually takes less damge than most charcters, its just that she takes chipp damage(but she can regain that with blood pcaks and her command throw or whatever its is)
Also for the glitch to work 50% tension is neede so its not from any knockdown…and yes she is very good most likely a top tier.
Yeah. I forgot how rare it is to get a knockdown with tension in Guilty Gear. The point stands, it’s a viable problem A.B.A. players need to deal with.
Yeah I have to admit… A.B.A is a serious ass character!!!
i love this country, but i should of been born in japan.
you can instant kill her after she activates after three knockdowns in slash, on console there is a glitch that lets you do it after one knockdown and the glitch is console only, all console only glitches will hopefully not get used in tournament as this does not reflect the real game. i wish america was where japan was with the arcade scene.
lol i corrected what you said no need to get angry
Well I played this at a friends house and it’s fantastic. So I’ve ordered mine. Now I’ve just got to get out of a SF mindset and learn this game.
I find after playing street fighter for a while im more relaxed and focused when playing gg… I play much better
No, it’s not exactly a knock down, you need to hit her on her wake-up. When she gets knocked down she loses 33% Moroha on her wake-up. If you hit her with a super on the exact frame she looses the 33% she atomatically exits Moroha mode and goes into her recovery animation.
erm no, its just super flash, and any super flash will do, johnny can ik her if he has enough time to activate ik mode, the super that you’re flashing with doesnt even have to touch her.
for example, if you sweet w/ potemkin, you can do giganter bullet wallbounch combo which is free 50% life as long as he can hit with a giganter bullet he gets the combo really,
also you can chain into sweep w/ a jab w/ most characters so you can IB a random hit jab her into knockdown. its useless for some characters though, since they wont get a lot of damage.
though it sgreat for
johnny
ky
sol
potemkin
cuz they can basically get a free fuckton of damage or even a free kill
Damn, that’s even worse. :tdown: Still…Timing the thing would take some work.
just popping in real quick if this thread becomes the spamfest the gg slash thread in fgd was itll share the same fate as that one
ps. I need some good hos combos off of throw =]
Corner5s(ji) 5hs,hjc js,jhs,jd,dj,jd br…try to step back and slightly delay the 5s otherwise they will end up on the other side of you
His key super hits twice now. His skull projectile can be thrown again even after it hits unlike on the GGXX and Reload.
worst character in the game. Has to charge for his moves. Has no range. does damage depending on the level of his attacks; he cancels all his specials with dust and charges energy, he goes up to level 3 on the energy bar. crap damage, crap combos. almost no possibilities and he was made this way on purpose, he was made to suck on purpose.
tier (no order):
Ky
testament
sol
anji
middle tier:
everyone else except holy order sol
low tier:
order sol
random tidbits;
qcf + s(hs) and their follow up moves can be executed without hitting the opponent.
qcf+s(hs) + hs = new move. auto block, good block stun, hits hard, allows mito to continue applying pressure and destroying opponents by building up their guard meter.
anji takes off more now, he is too easy to use.
testament’s damage has been increased. the fireball can connect easily by sweeping an opponent. fighting against testament is an ordeal. You have to fight off his bird, projecticles, trees, nets, poison and in order to fight against testament, which is no cake walk either.
ky’s damage has been increased. stun dipper is thrown in the air, diagonally down. fireballs have two speeds with slash and hard slash. combos are not hard to do. Ky is on crack, scrubtastically useful. qcb+k crosses over easily and can lead to 150+ damage.
sol, sidewinder sux, no dust loop, side winder is flashy and good for counter hit opportunities, but it is too slow, cannot be performed near the ground. j. dust x qcf+k is good. mad priority, increased damage, can cancel standing hs into a jump x air dash for continual pressure.
not really. trying to regain energy with a.b.a. is not a smart thing to do, cause she is only a threat when the key is activated. If she attempts to get energy, she reverts to her weak, slow self, counting the fact that she only gets energy equal to her Moroha bar and the only time you’ll want to get energy is when the bar is finishing (which does give her that much energy at all) that’s a kind of useless strat.
she’s not horrible, but she doesn’t have a lot of things going for her. Now the way she dishes out damage is a little lower than slayer’s, but she hurt an opponent’s guard tension due to her unbelievable rushdown and hard hitting abilities. she loses energy everytime she hits an opponent in Moroha mode which sux, and she doesn’t have any projecticles or anti-airs, which puts her in the middle.
