Abigail is probably my favorite SFV character now, easily the most fun to use, they hit it out of the park with him IMO.
I hope the team isn't deterred by the knee-jerk YouTube dislikes. I don't want them to play it safe with a boring season full of fan favorites from SFIV.
 
so i am trying to get back into this game, i was never very good, but i am hoping to find a few ppl to play w/. I am super bronze right now. Is there a discord GAF channel or something?

That guy, Forward, is beyond hate at this level

It's full on obsession

This quote is killing me.

Forward said:
True told, SFV purchasers were hit with a multifaceted Blitzkrieg of marketing psychological assaults, day [minus] one. It is without a doubt a litmus test, seeking the bounds of consumer tolerance within such a subset. In this regard, it is an unmitigated, staggering success.

Perhaps the most interesting aspect to be gleaned from it, is how much further future selling power initial dissatisfaction may produce, if coached and cultivated in a certain manner/"the proper way".

It's like he just recently discovered a thesaurus.

Laura spells doom for Abigail

Pretty early to say for sure—that single set certainly wasn't any real indication—but I wonder. From the outset, it seems that Abigail does well against Cammy, Mika, and Ed.

Any character with good rush down kills Abby. So, the whole cast barring Juri lol.

I disagree, at least somewhat. Cammy, for example, is one of the rushdown queens, but she is easily manageable thanks to Abby's range. 'Course, if someone gets in, it's bad for him, but it's the same with many other characters in the cast with no defensive capabilities.
 
I hope Abigail is more prominent at the pointy end of tournaments than Ed and Kolin have been. I want to see what he is capable of.
Its funny to see many opponents try to run away when Abi charges. Many just dont know what to do. I guess that'll change in time when everyone is more familiar with him. Abigails body splat seems to have a huge hit box too. A number of my wins have felt pretty fraudulent because of this.

Nashs CA has him propped up like a foot in the air during the animation on Abigail and then just drops him down after it finishes.....

fucking clown shoes.

I made an Abby rage quit tonight after crush countering that Donkey Kong flip. I celebrated by replaying Final Fight.

I really want Edi E in SFV, almost as much as Haggar. Taco meat and 9mm and all. Capcom can give him Peter moves if they wanna be lazy, I'm good with that. I just want to beat up on a crooked cop, for NWA reasons.

I never appreciated how specific the attack patterns were in the game. Even with J/Two P and the stick and move jabs, all of the pallette sets had their own behavior.

Abigail needs to turn more red during V-Trigger to keep it 100 to the arcade.

For the first half of the Belger fight you're just indescriminately punching poor Jessica in the face.

Abigail might be the first character whose English VA is superior to the Japanese Dub, I feel

It suits him so perfectly.

Unfortunately, with his English VA his intro "dialogue" doesn't match his intro animation, though. Also, I just straight-up prefer his Japanese voice.
