Street Fighter IV Abel Special Moves

[enkephalin07]

I hated this guy for getting in the way of playing Fei Long, and the character allusions to Van Damme. But he kind of grew on me; I like him. Far cooler than Van Damme.

[enkephalin07]

Oh, and I know VD is Belgian -- if you're French, don't get offended at me, but at Capcom.

[adman27]

He looks like a sambo practitioner...

[rediance]

according to wiki or something I forgot... anyway it said that his style is Sambo Grappling, is a french military thing. Which makes sense.

[KanameTousen]

@rediance WRONG russian military the official style of the Red Army in the 1920s

[rediance]

@KanameTousen what the hell you talking about?

[KanameTousen]

@rediance sambo its the style of the former soviet union

[rediance]

@KanameTousen Well thats what the site said. I think is Savate, since thats what the french created and practiced. If you're right, then kudos to you.

[KanameTousen]

Savate is kick boxing made by the french SAMBO is grappling made by Russians, the savate uniform is a leotard and the Sambo uniform is a gi top with shorts(what abel wears), Savate is ax kicks and no grapples, sambo is all grapples unless your talking about Combat SAMBO which is only taught to military

[zodiak650]

@KanameTousen For you new school people. All you need to know is that Sambo is Fedor Emilienko's style. These new school cats only know "mma", nobody has a traditional style that they originated from anymore. No point trying to teach them.

[KanameTousen]

@zodiak650 I teach them because being a jack of all doesn't matter if you can still be beat by a master of one.

[cypheraine17]

IMO, Abel's super looks better than his ultra.

[SuperSarcasim]

Wait so was Abel's super different before with the three finishes or is it still like that?

[93alvbjo]

no they change it becuase it was to low priority and jst ugly and non innovating

[jalenp69]

lol at him talking about the special names.

the super combo is heartless (how could you be so heartless?!lol) and the ultra combo is soulless

[HarukaniSora]

ABel's Player add me... I main Abel to so battle me

PSN: HarukaniSora

[killersoundboy]

he is a sambo grappler to be correct

[jbritp]

I think its Vale Tudo. Anyway he's still cool!

[HyperionV13]

Wow dude, they should have left that Ultra in the game, I main Abel and I would have laughed to death kicking people in the nuts to finish them off, could Capcom PLEASE add it as downloadable content, PLEASE!!

[93alvbjo]

well the groin kick wouldn't have any effect on the girls :)

[snowflakemizu]

lol they changed abel a bit sense this huh

[Hurley1080]

yeah, hes super is almost completely different now. and his ultra is a punch to the face, not a kick to the groin lol. the punch is nice, but that kick would have been pretty funny lol too bad they changed it

[SabakunoAnubis]

Man I hope he can be a good replacement for Alex

[sh00wtsterXXX]

can you play seth and gouken in the game? SF4

[JDee1993]

yes

[gokumadara]

did everyone forget that the new characters besides gouken dont have powers wooooooooow that sucks ass ya know and im not even going to speak on rufus

[TwichyEyebrows]

I actually think that's pretty cool.

[MadawcFrenesy]

Abel's gameplay just look awesome , i can't wait to play with it . Thanks for the vid

[Biginitiald]

ever watched UFC?

they have some great fighters who are french

your an idiot because you think that just because he is french that he follows some stereotype.

Quit being a racist prick, and shut the hell up

[Lrdvltr]

@Biginitiald GSP!! Don't say he's "Canadian" because he is clearly of French descent.

[TGJEEVAS]

@Lrdvltr Yeah, so you could say that all Americans are actually English, German, Russian, etc. because of their descent. Do you know how fucking stupid that sounds? GSP was born in Canada, which is the only thing that matters. He wasn't living in France, so he's not at all associated with being from France. And by the way, what the fuck do you mean by the quotation marks around "Canadian"?  You are one ignorant asshole.

[Lrdvltr]

@TGJEEVAS You are a massive troll my friend.

[xThunderxWolfx]

@Biginitiald Shitty french fighters.

[FalconBoxe]

@xThunderxWolfx Face them so.

[raxzar]

He´s based on Fedor Emelianenko a great MMA Fighter

[conradojavier]

SF4 vs SF3 on PPV part 1:

Sakura,Viper,Cammy vs Ibuki,Elena,Makoto

Zangief,E. Honda vs Abel,El Fuerte vs Alex,Hugo

Dhalsim,Blanka vs Necro,Tweleve

Main Event: Balrog vs Dudley

[conradojavier]

Abel reminds me of Brock Lesnar from UFC.

[Gamelvl84]

Seriously, he looks like another Shotokan. Yeah i know he does not fight the same (yet i can spot similarities) But come on! Cant you design anything better?

[raanenbozzio]

i played as him today. he is great. his moves are a bit like alex, sean and feilong combined. he's not my best yet, but i really like him and will be using him more often.

[conradojavier]

if we can't get Alex,Abel is your man for the job.

[mgeldis84]

he looks like a combat sambo fighter. pretty awesome, i like that he has double leg take downs like Sean.

[coruptgovt]

I like how half his moves are from Kyo or Terry from KoF

[MaximusDread]

Kyo and Terry aren't grapplers.

[KgeL]

how many characters they have on this game?

[ihavemydignity]

rufus and seth are better... he looks like some soccar playing duchebag xD

[jamieleng]

That vid was making my head hurt, with the same animation playing over and over and over and over and over and over again!

[zztopis]

They need to bring back the original new challenger's from 1994 plus alex,dudly,makoto,gill

[252Dazz252]

That character sucks, nothing like-able about him, sorry.

[lynxvex]

I just hate his design

[ggxxslash]

go home

[anirudhkrishnamani]

ael is his name asswipe.

[Gamelvl84]

Lol ael... good one

[anirudhkrishnamani]

ugh!!dude i just miss typed it!

[Gamelvl84]

Right, lol still you sort of fucked up there. Thats okey for me, i am not going to hold it against you ;).

[anirudhkrishnamani]

i meant abel*

its just a name dude!

[252Dazz252]

I know what his name is, i didn't even type his name, i referred to him as in the character not the name, so why you thought you'd tell me his name i have no idea unless you misunderstood when i said "like-able".

[vgt9]

Can he apply and Armbar?

[brucenatelee]

I'll be using him a lot more than Zangief, who is more of a pro's character.

[xXescapexthexfateXx]

this game better have online game play.. i'll own everyone!

[eatSamurI]

it was confirmed that it will have online.

[ransom781]

wat gm dont have online nowadays u fuckin idiot

[Neospecz]

Craig Marduk will mow him down

[IvanSorath]

im so buying this game

[toxictonic12888]

HES GOT A "DICK KICK" FUCKIN RIGHT. also i love how hes almost like sean n alex put together and combos into air throwns remind me of hugo. so im bout to blow a load on my keyboard

[brucenatelee]

Yeah. Sean's roll and jumping spin kick move, but with grappling (only other blonde male grappler I know of probably from America). Seems to be easier to use than Zangief.

[AFMBari]

He basically has Sean's moves, just modified.

1. tackle

2. roll

3. arch/wheel kick

4. rush attack super

Wow, so you missed when he flip the guy over, or the multiple finishers for his specials AND supers.

Wow, it seems that Sean now has a monopoly on Sambo moves because of his useless takedown in 3s.

[jayrq2o1]

does it bother anyone how every iteration of the hadoken outside street fighter (ova's, anime's, other videgame cameos ie rock/megaman x, marvel vs capcom) has immense amounts of inconceivable power such as it taking an irrational amount of time to execute or it capable of killing bosses in one hit. no? well, considering how often its done in one ryu/ken or clone fight, i figured it should be kind downplayed in other media, lmao.

[Destructopodx]

I don't lose any sleep over it no...

[verocity]

arcades247

[kyske]

It actually looks better when they are not moving

[hardgayramen4ever]

from the test version I played 2 weeks ago I came to the conclusion abel was a very cheap fucker. his axe kick move is annoying, its safe and hits overhead. Also the last hit on his 3 hit chain can't be blocked. His desperation super was incredible cheasy aswell, if he has it stored never throw a fireball at him. He needs a nerfing.

[Leval3]

He basically has Sean's moves, just modified.

1. tackle

2. roll

3. arch/wheel kick

4. rush attack super

Whats sad is that Sean has more moves than this guy.

[dcyb]

fuckin neeeeeerd

[pokeshark]

fuckin retaaaaaard

[prljam64]

ghey

[Nydrin]

good vid seth, i hope you do one for el blaze... i mean el fuerte soon!

[Gamelvl84]

Who? Rey Misterio you say?

[jedimassforce]

a wrestler in the WWE he is fat

[XtraTrstrL]

I was thinking the same thing when I first saw it.

[sowutifmahsnsux]

i think abels ultra is too repetitive w/ the kicks, it needs more variety
