this might be the most volatile character in any fg ive played i think she's really damn cool despite fighting her making me feel like I'm being drowned in milk
She's what brought me to guilty gear. I bought strive when she dropped them bought accent core when I heard she's crazier there 😂. And everything broken that she has no matter what. SHE NEEDS IT🤣
one thing i love is how normal mode you see aba struggle to swing paracelsus in her dash and normals(or straight up not use him in normals where caracters often use their weapon like her slashes) while in moroha it looks like the only one who feels paracelsus' weight is the person eating a danzai. close slash is metal as all hell since she swings him by the teeth.
3:00 Fun fact: key-grab is a grab for the first half of its active frames, and a strike for the second half. That's why opens people up as a grab when you tick throw into it, but combos as though it's a strike - the grab frames just whiff on your opponent in hitstun.
Ahh yes the OG feast or famine character. Only she has a 3rd state : Festival. Loved the vid. Looking forward to you breaking down more +R characters. Potemkin next maybe?!
I love Aba soooo much! She's what finally got me hooked on both +R and Strive, she's so damn cool to me. Love these vids of your's! It always has really helpful insight on characters while being very entertaining
@@LucidButtonMasher thats real tbh.. i had a character's gun but it recently broke, so i'm hoping this guy dosen't get damaged SPECIALLY since i want to make his head swappable and also sculpt a moroha mode one (for the coolness™️ factor)
You make characters seem so damn interesting man, I feel really inspired to give +r a genuine try after being a little hesitant to take the plunge for a while now
Highly recommend. Getting into robo ky rn and it's tough but i just remembered my own speech from this video. Take the plunge, don't be afraid to lose and get back up!
my joy has reached newfound limits seeing you enjoy both of my mains aba and answer, i love how she plays and despite her weaknesses and the game's many quirks i never get bored of what silly things that insane woman and her key can do
Voted for Anji. Anji tech: 632146H (FRC), (micro dash depending on distance), 632H for 75% meter unburstable combo ender into oki (236D if you have 100% and want an unblockable)
This style of video is really cool. I will say though that I wish you added the BnB combos. I did watvh this in bits and pieces though so you might have and I missed it. The jam one was crank. I go back to these a lot.
yesss, I've wanted to pick up this character since i started the game. I've been playing sol in the meantime but learning her overtime. Even just the idea of the two modes is so sick. 19:31 i think this is because she hops off the ground in the 2H animation but i'm not entirely sure
I once met a semi-established ABA player in the quick play lobby and had an interesting series of events: >he beats me up four or five games straight >I win one round and taunt afterwards, giving him 50 meter >he grabs my burst >I start playing the matchup half-competently (Faust) >he gets pissy enough to give up mid-game, holding down-back for over a minute across two games >I message him and ask why he did that >"I didn't want to keep playing" >"Then why'd you rematch?" >no answer Then he uploaded recordings of the replays on his TH-cam channel with a passive-aggressive title and a rant in the description about ABA's bad matchups and his refusal to learn them or consider changing characters. I have zero respect for ABA players (although it was really funny).
Hell yeah, +r content. Love this game, even if I suck at it lol. It has some of my favorite versions of a lot of the cast (like Anji, Pot, Slayer fot example), and a love of its own fun ones (Zappa, Kliff, Robo, etc) so I am very much looking forward to next mini main on it :] (also Answer, he's pretty cool)
18:00 I think this Testament was playing on keyboard, since you can't input an IK on it unless you've got like 20 cm fingers and if you do why are you even playing xx+kusoge and not I dunno basketball. Also you can't input RC on a keyboard too if the buttons are too close. Man, I wish rev2 had more players than xx...
Okay that little uplifting part was very unexpected and turns out very need, lol Trying to get into skullgirls for the millionth time and feeling like this could be it so this encouragement is verry appreciated, thank you, funny monke man 🙏♥🥹
This video definitely has a lot more information just for one character in +r which justifies how complex game can get. By the way, charge blitz(during stun), ex move and slashback feel more inspired by street fighter. Didn't know burst was actually bad in +r. I know xrd has bad burst except for burst throw, but I don't think about it that way. Looking at the video i just realized IK kind of feel better in xrd because i never understand why they add invulnerability.Since i heavily relied on may and aware sol IK kind of @$$ tho. Rn, mashing USF4 kind of noticed some stuff. A.B.A definitely has this game best install.
I'd really like to see how you try to execute I-no 6FRC6 cancels (if you haven't yet, I might have missed). My gameplan has always been to go bananas with 100 meter and CL loops, it's really satisfying
+R is insane. Turns out iterating on a game over a long period of time results in a polished end product who would have thought. This and CF2 were the peaks of arcsys. It's amazing how fun and unique the chars in this game can be, roboky, cliff and justice are insanely fun even if they get clapped by the toptiers. Its sad how the philosophy has shifted over the years, seeing for example the designated beginner char sol go from low skill floor but high hold this sidewinder loop ceiling to whatever the hell the clown cartoon spinoff game that is strive did with him so everyone can cook.
Hey man, long time fan! There's this new fighting game made by Valve called 'Deadlock', any chance you'll play it? Its got combos, you can parry, the movement is sick, it's basically the perfect fighting game. Anyways, love the vid, hope to see you on Deadlock soon!
@LucidButtonMasher I hope you like unblockables, eddie has like 5 in +r. Because little eddie can do overheads. And because you can rc drill then iad for a nasty setup. That's in addition to the normal ones you know from xrd A good eddie can just chain unblockables together
It's weird to me how much I love fighting Aba in +R and despise fighting her in Strive. It feels like the +R version of the character actually punishes the Aba player for messing up and mismanaging resources, whereas the worst thing that happens to Strive Aba is just not being in moroha for a little bit (which isn't even as bad given that regular mode Aba is way better in Strive than regular Aba in +R)
i clicked on this video to see how stupid u would b , but found a rly nice overview !! some misinfo tho AT can combo into keygrab or dash keygrab at many ranges air keysuper good callout option that feels like that use should’ve been mentioned Flipkick FRC isn’t niche ! it’s v v v v important , makes the UB DAA safe in a lot of instances (kinda depends on how ur hitting w the FB blood ball) and it’s GM only danzai FRC is also incredible and game changing Overall cool video :D

Very specific
She's what brought me to guilty gear. I bought strive when she dropped them bought accent core when I heard she's crazier there 😂. And everything broken that she has no matter what. SHE NEEDS IT🤣
I tried playing A.B.A. in +R once, got lamed out by a Justice and a Ky so I switched characters.. I just think she's neat 😢

nvm i got clipped twice (17:40, 27:40) so my day is actually worse now and it's all ur fault (jk)

my joy has reached newfound limits seeing you enjoy both of my mains aba and answer, i love how she plays and despite her weaknesses and the game's many quirks i never get bored of what silly things that insane woman and her key can do
Agreed. Was shown how much longer her combos can go by the aba discord yesterday and was blown away how much more there was to learn
I've never even played this game but you made it sound so interesting and fun... I think I wanna play aba now
There's so much to learn and enjoy. It really is a journey of discovery no open world game can offer me
hell yeah, more long form lucid gear content. gotta love it
Enjoy
There's two wolf inside me, a calculated tech manipulator or mashing time

Many thanks. Gonna use it again in a month
Can't wait to hear all those

LET'S GOOOOOOOO
Remake music will be decisive. Evo tracks sometimes don't hit right either
the council of anji (me) will be waiting for the anji video........
Hope it's more than just you lol
Voted for Anji.

This style of video is really cool. I will say though that I wish you added the BnB combos. I did watvh this in bits and pieces though so you might have and I missed it. The jam one was crank. I go back to these a lot.
Not a bad idea. Usually i show the combos with the buttons used but a dedicated bnb section isn't a bad idea
YESSSS FINALLY THE ABA VIDEO :DDDD (lol bit late to capitalize on her strive release tho haha)
Yeah life and perfection tends to get in the way of these
We’re so ABAck
I'm aballed at the pun
me when i add R to my Accent Core
Weirdly enough you tube doesn't have plus r as a game category only accent core and plus
@@LucidButtonMasheryoutube can’t add up to R
Peak video. Even though I’ve never played accent core it’s not too far from the funny aba starts in strive.
Give it a go when it's on sale for 3 bucks
yesss, I've wanted to pick up this character since i started the game. I've been playing sol in the meantime but learning her overtime. Even just the idea of the two modes is so sick.
19:31 i think this is because she hops off the ground in the 2H animation but i'm not entirely sure
Yeah most likely. Why not right?
I love how you dress up as the character you’re covering in each video.
I really need to play more Accent Core.
Manny thanks and you should. Good game
best +R videos period
Many thanks bud
odah sol for the mini main
Come my fellow soldiers.
Robo ky in the lead so far
I once met a semi-established ABA player in the quick play lobby and had an interesting series of events:
>he beats me up four or five games straight
>I win one round and taunt afterwards, giving him 50 meter
>he grabs my burst
>I start playing the matchup half-competently (Faust)
>he gets pissy enough to give up mid-game, holding down-back for over a minute across two games
>I message him and ask why he did that
>"I didn't want to keep playing"
>"Then why'd you rematch?"
>no answer
Then he uploaded recordings of the replays on his TH-cam channel with a passive-aggressive title and a rant in the description about ABA's bad matchups and his refusal to learn them or consider changing characters. I have zero respect for ABA players (although it was really funny).
One interaction isn't all of us luckily
Made my day
Glad to do so
Can't help but read your name as Ludd in your +R footages lol
Lol it is a bit hard to see up there
That goku scream was cool
I think i got it pretty right on
Hell yeah, +r content. Love this game, even if I suck at it lol. It has some of my favorite versions of a lot of the cast (like Anji, Pot, Slayer fot example), and a love of its own fun ones (Zappa, Kliff, Robo, etc) so I am very much looking forward to next mini main on it :] (also Answer, he's pretty cool)
Hell yeah he is
18:00 I think this Testament was playing on keyboard, since you can't input an IK on it unless you've got like 20 cm fingers and if you do why are you even playing xx+kusoge and not I dunno basketball.
Also you can't input RC on a keyboard too if the buttons are too close. Man, I wish rev2 had more players than xx...
Not sure about the keyboard meta but I'm sure it's similar to hitbox and those guys have no issues
Finally someone can tell me how to play my main
"uhh hit funny buttons"

My poor ass wasnt know aba have armour moves when i was new in +r. I WAS LIKE I BLOCKED THAT ARMOUR MOVE WHY CANT I TAKE TURN
Gotta hit through it

Sf4 definitely influenced gg
I could understand for Strive. As an outside perspective Strive reminds me of Nrs game Gatling more than USF4.
No for sure. That's the exact comparison i tell people about strive. It's a weird juggle system. Not a fan of it myself
oh boy i cant wait to watch an aba gear video :steamhappy:
Enjoy, gamer
I remember when Plussy first got rollback and SkeletalMinion was dominating EVERY online bracket for like 4 months as ABA... good times.
Matchup knowledge very important
You handsome, Chad 🧐
Right back atcha good patron
I never got to play +R and after maining strive aba I now understand why people say she was robbed
Strive do be that way
Best content
I tried my best
ruining my friends lives with goku moroha mode will forever be my favorite thing in fighting games

THEYRE CALLED BUTTLOOPS BECAUSE ITS A HEADBUTT WITH PARACELSUS BECAUSE THE HITBOX IS ON HIS HEAD i think
Headbutt loops true

Are the +R mini main vids gonna go over +R ver of char you mini mained in Xrd?
Nah just anyone in plus r i haven't done yet (aba is first, Slayer doesn't count since he's my main)
2:36 Ho shit !!! This keyblade is better than the Ultima one !!!!!
