That Dudley who teamed up with Pino did not do so good. All those sa1 links after overhead missed, I like his pressure game but that wasnt enough for him to win.
He's right though, Spiral DDT is very risky to use whatever the circumstances are. To be avoided, it only has to be ducked (which can often be done on reaction). That's not to say it can't be used cleverly as part of a diverse mix-up game, but unless the opponent is a total cabbage you should not be having that much success with it.
No ISAD, I'm talking about up close and personal immediately after a knockdown. It works all the time for me but caution must be taken against any shoryu character. Your timing must be perfect and you must choose the correct button based on character size. Never use this move from far away.
Any move is unsafe if you abuse it. Even a jab Flash Chop is vulnerable to a low attack-confirm into super, as is a blocked jab-Power Bomb. Doesn't mean you can't use those strategically. Spiral DDT often works once per match.

@Berserkhater: Whatever you say. Maybe the people I play against are 100% pure garbage and they just make me look better than I really am.

You can also sometimes mix it up with a short power bomb.

Wonder why AB7 isn't using that strong elbow attack to juggle like Sugiyama did against Messatsu... :S
