Strengths

Weaknesses

BIG Damage: Abobo deals an incredible amount of damage. He can realistically stun opponents in a single combo, and his command grabs let him open up blocking opponents for massive reward. BIG Health: Abobo has very high health, letting him make more mistakes than most others. Unique Pursuit: Abobo's 632XX is the only non-standard Pursuit attack in the entire game. Not only is it stronger, this attack is also much faster than every other Pursuit. This means he gets a consistent 50% extra damage tacked on to any stun he scores, so long as he has meter.

BIG Body: Abobo has a massive hurtbox that makes him unable to duck attacks other characters can and leaves him highly susceptible to instant overheads. Mixup Fraud: Abobo has only two lows in his entire kit, and both are very slow. His overhead game is quite strong, but the opponent has very little reason to block low against him. No Reversals: Abobo does not have a single attack with frame 1 invincibility. If he's knocked down, it's very possible the entire round may slip away from him right then and there.

Far 5C

Input	Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard	Cancel	On Hit	On Block
5C	5700	8	-	-	H/L	No	-9	-7
Just an absolutely atrocious button all around, pathetic range, negative on hit and block, and no cancellability.

Close 5C

Input	Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard	Cancel	On Hit	On Block
5C	5700	8	-	-	H/L	Yes	+4	+6
Decent button all around, but the risk of getting Far C instead makes this somewhat risky to go for.

Far 5D

Input	Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard	Cancel	On Hit	On Block
5D	5700	18	-	-	H/L	No	+2	+4
Whiffs on most crouchers. Non-cancellable and slow to start, but good range and solid damage.

Close 5D

Input	Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard	Cancel	On Hit	On Block
5D	7600	14	-	-	H	Yes	+9	+9
High damage, plus on block and hit, special cancellable overhead. Essentially all you could want in a close ground button.

Crouching Normals

2B

Input	Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard	Cancel	On Hit	On Block
2B	3800	5	-	-	H/L	Yes	+5	+9

2C

Input	Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard	Cancel	On Hit	On Block
2C	5700	6	-	-	H/L	Yes	-6	-4
Giant and quick, makes for a solid panic anti-air.

2D	7600	17	-	-	L	No	KD	-3
One of only two lows in Abobo's kit. Hits about round start distance, though very slow. Does not cancel.

5DD	5400	5	-	-	H/L	No	+2	+2
A second 5D, can be confirmed off of the first one for a little bit of extra damage.

Version	Input	Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard	Cancel	On Hit	On Block
D	632D	10640	15	-	-	H	Into	KD	-9
Abobo's single non-throw special move, and really the only one he needs. An extremely high-damage overhead that combos off of nearly all of his buttons, negates projectiles, and builds lots of meter. Higher strength increases damage and distance traveled.

Hyper Bomb
236X

Version	Input	Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard	Cancel	On Hit	On Block
A	236A	7600	1	-	0	N/A	Into	KD	N/A

C	236C	9720	1	-	0	N/A	Into	KD	N/A
Version	Input	Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard	Cancel	On Hit	On Block
D	236D	10500	1	-	0	N/A	Into	KD	N/A
Command grab that keeps Abobo on the same side, cancellable into from buttons if close enough. Higher button strength = more ground slams, but less range. Good for confirms, due to its simple input and lack of whiff animation.

Giant Swing
41236X/63214X

Version	Input	Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard	Cancel	On Hit	On Block
A	41236A/63214A	7980	1	-	0	N/A	Into	KD	N/A

B	41236B/63214B	9120	1	-	0	N/A	Into	KD	N/A
Version	Input	Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard	Cancel	On Hit	On Block
C	41236C/63214C	10260	1	-	0	N/A	Into	KD	N/A
Version	Input	Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard	Cancel	On Hit	On Block
D	41236D/63214D	11400	1	-	0	N/A	Into	KD	N/A
Abobo's highest damage meterless combo ender where applicable. Swaps sides, leaves the opponent nearly fullscreen.

Super Moves

Ground Smash
632XX

Input	Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard	Cancel	On Hit	On Block
632XX	13680/14280	32	-	-	H/L or L, L, L	Into	KD	-
This super possesses a number of unique properties. At point blank range, it functions as an AOE sphere that hits around Abobo, but from further away it produces a fullscreen hitbox that must be blocked low and deals no chip damage. It is also the only non-standard pursuit attack in the game, dealing immense OTG damage that is impossible to mash out of.

Pressure Bomb
41236XX/63214XX

Input	Damage	Startup	Active	Recovery	Guard	Cancel	On Hit	On Block
41236XX/63124XX	14820	1	-	0	N/A	Into	KD	N/A
The strongest attack in Abobo's entire movelist. An immensely powerful command grab that leaves the opponent close to Abobo, and gives him excellent okizeme.

The Basics

cr.D and Triple Jackhammer super appear to be his only lows (cr.B does not hit low!)

Overheads: ffB, close D, and Hammer Blow special hit overhead

j.C can crossup

Triple Jackhammer super can OTG, so if an opponent becomes ground dizzied, the super will hit from fullscreen for better damage than pursuit.

Abobo can kara-cancel dashes into normal moves, for example backdash~cr.B, or forward dash~cr.A. Timing is quite strict.

Combos

Overheads:

ffB, cr.A, cr.B xx Hammer Blow

ffB, cr.A, cr.C xx Hyper Bomb

close D, cr.A xx Hammer Blow

Crossup:

j.C, close C, A, B,B xx Hammer Blow

j.C, close C, A xx C Giant Swing/Hammer Blow
