Abby is way too much fun. Have to stop but I'm cribbing a bunch of tech from online so I can practice tomorrow since it's my day off.

Exactly, just because a character is in the game doesn't mean they have to be in the story.
"Despite Cammy's air throw, I'm confident Capcom will competently handle working Abigail into all the existing animations." /s
This looks like a transaction not meant to be public.
I'd be down. CFN Teh_Lurv

so is Abigail the hardest hitter in terms of normal damage in the game?

Looks like it. Don't know many characters that can do 60% damage with 1 combo.
LOL Infiltration having way too much fun on his stream
while it looks silly it should stay true to the mechanics behind the move. It should always miss crouchers

The one where he runs? his start up is probably the slowest in the series. He doesn't seem to be airborne, You can probably crush counter him
No, I'm talking about jumping. He has the slowest and most obvious jump in the game, not to mention his size. If you jump back against a Laura who is standing still, her st.MK will reach Abigail.

I know people are gonna give this shit, but Abby would be ten times worse if his hitbox was actually matched his body in full.

Doesn't that tweet specifically state it's his pushbox?

His Japanese voice is amazing. Good lord, can it's perfect. Street Fighter V has done such a good job with it's character diversity. They give such automatic feelings, which is a positive thing, be it good or bad. I'll definitely put some time in with this guy.

That's what I get for not reading.

I won against a Cammy because I got a few free hits into v-trigger combos. Clearly she was better but mannnn don't let this dude touch you
Neither was I.

Abigail is going to have problems against cross ups. It's not even ambiguous one either.
Also this
I need to see how dumb this look without the camera.

Wait so what happens when Abby reflects Sonic Hurricane?
I assume it stays in place but can hurt Guile if he walks into it.

I don't think you charge some of those hp all the way.

Yea you only charge st.HP, you can get away with b.HP if you just hold it for a second longer.
wasn't able to do it, but then again, I had a ton of problems reflecting the Ryu one, lol
Damn that meter build. Abigail is so dope.

Had to cut the night short but I wanted to say Metro City's stage theme + playing Abigail is possibly the hypest this game has been for me so far. It's the only stage I've bought so far but it's already been worth, the music is just too damn good.
As for Abigail he's pretty dope. Nitro Charge is gimmicky as hell but this character design + the options really work in Abigail's favor. Conditioning people with the throw then going for the splash later always feels pretty nasty.
PSA for his EX grab: if you're too close to the corner you won't be able to follow up the wall bounce with light Abigail Punch, but you can get out a st. LP and cancel into Nitro Charge for a possibly nasty mixup.
Landed this in my last match of the night (minus EX) and it definitely shifted the tide of the match. Granted it was another Abigail so his health didn't want to budge, but it put him in the corner and it was easy to stuff him out from there.

Vroom Vroom motherfucker!
Vesper is a man of his word. He literally said he was going to do this as long as he could get away with it.
True Happiness is a childs laughter.

Abigail's great, I take back all the mean things I said about him. I wanna grab some Timbits with him.

I looooooooooove Xander's Abigail voice soooo much. He had a ton of fun voicing this character.
I couldn't stop laughing at how many times Abby said, "Vrooom"!

One day with a Canadian in the game and Vesper whips his ass out. I see how it is.

Jesus, if you make a mistake or wrong read against Abigail, please don't let him have bars. Good God, that is lethal.
