Street Fighter IV Remix/Adon

Overview Combos Matchups Strategy

Introduction

Adon was there the night Sagat's dad was killed. He didn't care then and he doesn't care now.

A Street Fighter I original that was finally made playable in the Alpha series, Adon is a mixup technician with high mobility, sporting a command jump as well as a double jump and an excellent forward dash. Adon retains his classic DP, Rising Jaguar, now made air-OK. The centerpiece of Adon's combo theory is his 236P, 100 Jaguars, a volley of punches that can be canceled into a jump-cancelable launcher followup or a hard knockdown overhead ender. This pairs well with his new special move, a command jump/stance move that replaces his walldive move, Jaguar Jump, which has a fastfall followup as well as a safe divekick. This gives Adon unparalleled air reset ability, and his full chains make it extremely easy for him to convert from any opening he does get. In addition, all of Adon's normals are fully jump-cancelable, even his command normal overhead, making his mixups generally extremely low-risk across the board.

His sole weakness lies in his middling reward - with a surplus of tools for opening the opponent up, Adon's actual combo game afterwards tends to fall flat of the average meterless damage in Remix, meaning he needs one or two extra confirms to get the kill compared to the average character. Outside of his meterless damage, his spending options aren't that great either, with the exception of his Jaguar Avalanche super, allowing him to pick up a combo afterwards. With powerful movement options and disappointing reward, Adon is a low-risk low-reward rushdown character that likes to weave his way around the opponent's neutral with his best-in-class movement, and then open them up with air resets and standing overheads.

Strengths

Weaknesses

Amazing Okizeme: Whether it's off a hard knockdown or a combo reset, Adon specializes in forcing the opponent to defend, and his myriad of mixup tools will force the opponent to stay alert at all times, even during the combo itself.
Stable Combo Structure: All of Adon's combo routes run through his 236P launcher, making it the heart and soul of the character offensively. If you ever feel lost during the hit-confirming portion of a combo, you should almost always be able to convert into 100 Jaguars and relaunch into something safe and consistent.
Great Movement: A double jump, a great forward dash, and his command jump with a divekick and fastfall attached to them means that Adon is extremely difficult for the opponent to pin down, darting around projectiles and big buttons in neutral effortlessly.

Awful Damage: Adon generally has some of the lowest damage in Remix, regardless of meter-dump or not, and it remains the primary weakness of an otherwise very powerful character. It's often difficult to make opponents respect Adon's offense, due to the fact that his punishes don't do much more damage than his normal hit confirms, and his damage only becomes threatening once you start spending the entirety of your resources. Expect plenty of invincible reversals on wakeup from the opponent.
