Bit off: In my eyes, HOS is now a viable and completely new character because of a working level-system, increased range on some attacks and the godly Fafnir, I've yet to meet a good ABA either so can't contribute much to this thread although I'm interested in learning ABA
HOS's basic attack system is to lock the enemy down with safe attacks, if ABA is too overly offensive (which she has to be I guess) she'll get punished by his semicounter 5S. Since what I've seen from ABA her attacks isn't that fast and safe, you could get that alot..
I spose he's trouble for pretty much anyone these days, 'cept Eddie then. Gah.
