Abel/Guile matchup question.

As Abel, what exactly are my options against a Guile who just sits back and lobs Sonic Booms all day and just keep me out? Roll hasn't been working because Guile will usually either jump away or throw me. I've tried backing him into the corner to try to get in to hit him, but that doesn't seem to work either.

As a Guile main who's been maining him since vanilla, zoning Abel is usually my best option, since once he gets in, it's hard to fight him, as he can do a good job at neutralizing Guile's options.  FADCing the Sonic Booms is a good way to get in, as well as a well-timed Wheel kick.  Jumping works at close range too, as Abel has a good Crossup (Med. Kick).  If you need practice against a decent-good Guile, and if you play on the 360, add me.  My GT is Calcos323.

This matchup is a classic of example of Abel ( Offense) and Guile (Defense) Abel can have a hard time, but if abel gets in, so can guile.

Excellent. I'm looking forward to seeing whether I suck or not.

Thank you for the help. When I get a chance, I'll add you and we'll have to play some.
