Overview:

Abigail is a massive, powerful brawler with huge reach and armored attacks. He deals immense damage and can be difficult to approach due to his size and aggressive nature.

Strategy:

  • Maintain Distance & Poke: Stay out of his immediate range. Use your longest-reaching normals and projectiles to chip away at his health.
  • Punish Slow Recovery: Many of Abigail's attacks, while powerful, have significant recovery frames. Block his attacks and then punish with your fastest combos.
  • Drive Impact His Armor: His 'Abigail Punch' and other heavy attacks are armored. Use Drive Impact to break through and get a free combo. This is crucial.
  • Jump Over Him: Due to his size, jumping over Abigail can be an effective way to get behind him and land a few hits, especially if he's committed to a forward-moving attack.
  • Patience: This is a battle of attrition. Don't rush in. Wait for openings and play defensively.

Weaknesses:

Slow movement, large hitbox makes him easy to hit, predictable armored attacks can be Drive Impacted.

Rewards:

  • Zenny
  • XP
  • Abigail's Gloves (Cosmetic)
