Introduction

Drawing from the speed and cunning of the majestic jaguar, Adon's style has been known to mesmerize victims. A master of Muay Thai, Adon trained with Sagat, but when the latter was defeated by Ryu, Adon believed Sagat to be a disgrace. Adon now seeks Sagat to become the Muay Thai leader once and for all.

Adon is pretty good in A2, of course he has a few flaws, but he is blessed with good normals and a awesome cc. When Adon hit, he hits hard.

Pros:

Great set of normals, c.mp is rose-lite

Custom combos hurt no matter the level

Great set of supers, both safe on block

Long reach

Jag tooth mind game

Awesome anti-airs

Cons:

Jag kick sucks, free hit or cc on you if you use this except in certain cases

Jag tooth can be cc pretty easily

Sweep is laggy, can be cc

Quick little elbow, alot of characters cant duck it, ok normals not great

Quick punch, duckable by most peeps, can be cancelled inot specials, decent far anti air s.mp xx hk dp juggles

Command Moves

Jutting Kick

+ - Great Anti-air

Throws

Jaguar Carry

Jaguar Slam

Both throws do the same amount of damage

Special Moves

Rising Jaguar

+

Very very good anti air, I dont think it trades with anything, version seems to have the best invincibility.

:

Jaguar Kick

+

Very unsafe move, on hit they can still do a cc or cr. xx special. Only time it is safe is by distance, example is hitting Ryu's hand with a jag kick at max distance. Jag kick in my experience is the best version to use to punish fireballs, leaving you far away. Using this move wrong will get you killed very fast.

:

Jaguar Tooth

+

Nice for mind games and safe on block, BUT very easy to cc and alpha counter. Use to make your opponent whiff a move and punish with a cc. Doing this on reaction to a fireball will get you dp'd or cc'd.

:

Super Moves

Jaguar Revolver

+

Very good move to punish fireballs at lvl 1. Works w/ lvl 2 and 3, but I would cc instead thru the fireball. Use this super to punish cr. or cr. xx fireball pokes.

Lvl1:

Lvl2:

Lvl3:

Jaguar Varied Assault

+

This move is safe on block and lvl 3, good wake up super. Combo into this after a cross up. Lvl 2 is not safe since he jumps up at the end. Mash kkk at the end of the lvl 3 to get a stronger version, mash ppp if it is blocked.

Alpha Counters

+

Adon rapid fists the opponent as an anti-air, and sends them almost fullscreen.

NOTE* for the USA revision (960430), Adon's Punch AC hits the opponent very easily during a fixed animation frame (even if it is a weak attack), making it a slight buff. Special thanks to Raf for the finding!

+

Adon's Kick AC also acts as an anti-air and sends the opponent about 1/4 screen away from you.

The Basics

You wanna force your opponent to mess up and punish hard. His cross up is very good, and should be done after any knock down. Adon want to zone the oppoent and be smart with jag tooths to make them jumpy. cr. is your friend, but dont under use his other normal cause they are very good, especially cr., cr., . His overhead has good range but use it sparingly since it is slow and can be cc'ed; best used after knocking them down. Just remember: hit hard, always look for a opening to land his cc.

Advanced Strategy

Combos

cr., cr.

cr./xx Jaguar Kick

cr. x2 xx Jaguar Varied Assault

Custom Combos

These ccs can be at any lvl, just watch the meter and end with dp.

1. cr. xx jag kick xN, dp

or cr. xx jag kick x4, dp, dp

2. [cr. xx jag kick xN, xx dp (opponent must be standing)

3. Lvl 3- cr. xx jag kick, dp x2

Anti-air ccs

4. lvl 1- or xx dp x2

5. lvl 2 and up- or xx jag kick xN, dp

6. lvl 3- or xx jag kick, dp x2

This is where Adon shines his long limbs let him punish from far away, even blocked fireballs mid screen. To punish from far as hell, use to start cc #2. Most customs you do should be #1 or #4. Also at lvl 2/3, blow threw fireballs and cc, pretty much a round winner. After any cc, sweep, if the tech roll you will hit them and get a free jag dp juggle.

Adon: lvl 1- c.rh xx hk dp x2

lvl 1- c.rh xx lk jag kick x2, hk dp

lvl 2- c.rh xx lk jag kick xN, hk dp

lvl 3- c.rh xx [hk jag kick, hk dp]x2

lvl 3- c.rh xx lk jag kick x4, mk jag kick, hk dp

lvl 3- c.mp xx lk jag kick x5, s.mp or s.lk in hk dp (must be standing)

Match-ups

Vs. Adon (self): 5-5

Vs. Akuma: 4-6

Vs. Birdie: 6-4. You can anti-air him with any of your normal aa's (Rising Jaguar, df+mk, cr. hp (far), and just AC as well) and that will take a lot of his game away. Don't ever jaguar kick unless you want to die or you're absolutely sure you're far enough away to be safe. This match is basically just building meter and trying to outpoke each other, then land the CC.

Standing roundhouse and cr.mp are obviously tough for Birdie to deal with, but remember his cr.hp will AA just about anything.

Vs. Charlie: 4-6

Vs. Chun-Li: 4-6

Vs. Dhalsim: 4-6

Vs. Gen: 7-3
