Wanted to start off a thread to share guides and tips on how to play 2.0 ABA. I hope ABA players who are better at the game/have better time management can fill this thread with good info.
Here's a combo guide recently posted by Nightshifter.
If I'm being honest I'm new to Strive ABA (I played her quite a bit in +R) and as of right now I'm focusing on combos that prioritize oki, JR meter, and ofc consistency. This video has essential BNBs, bigger conversions, and some cool back hit super combos.
Primarily thanks to 2.0's hitbox changes, Ky's shockstate charged stun edge (SS CSE) high/low oki is now universally enforceable and rewarding! This can be setup anytime you can get a half-way decent meaty SS CSE including corner DE knockdowns - these examples show off a way to auto-time the high, and a silly way to get into the situation from throw. With the 2.0 meter penalty/positive bonus & hitbox changes it's viable more often than before (imo) to keep corner with Dire Eclat knockdown, which sets you up for the SS CSE mix easily! Did I mention its a true string, no gaps?
Auto-timed high (if you do it manually you can get it just a tiny bit lower)
