~Let's See What You're Made Of!~
Kabal is a fast-paced, offensive fighter capable of countering most attacks people consider "cheap" or "overpowered". In this thread, I will go over just about everything when it comes to Kabal. From combos to costumes, this is where you will find it. Kabal may seem hard to use when you first get a hold of him, but if you master his moves and combos you are bound to be the best in the arena.First, let's go over the button log I will be using throughout this thread:
Spoiler:
1 = Front Punch
2 = Back Punch
3 = Front Kick
4 = Back Kick
DC = Dash Cancel
EX. = Enhanced Version
J. = Jump/While in the Air
NJ. = Neutral Jump - Jump up
-x? = Do Attack ? number of times
2 = Back Punch
3 = Front Kick
4 = Back Kick
DC = Dash Cancel
EX. = Enhanced Version

Now that the button log is taken care of, here is an overview of Kabal's Specials:
Spoiler:
Gas Blast B,B,1
Nomad Dash B,F,4
Buzzsaw B,B,3
Tornado Slam D,B,2
Nomad Dash B,F,4
Buzzsaw B,B,3
Tornado Slam D,B,2

Gas Blast In this attack Kabal shoots a large purple projectile out of Kabal's respirator. I personally find this move only moderately useful because of the superior buzzsaw. This is also usable in mid-air. One great strategy is to get an enemy once with the buzzsaw then shoot this projectile while they are getting up, netting you some more damage. ou can also use it to avoid being punished in the air.
Nomad Dash In this special attack Kabal dashes in the direction of the enemy at astonishing speed, causing the opponent to spin around for a short time. This is the root of nearly all of my attacks. You can use this to guarentee an Xray attack, or to begin a combo. I usually use this to start all of my attacks so the opponent cannot block. As a note, you can cancel the dash at any time by activating a special during the dash. You can also cancel by holding back and block during the dash to block.
Buzzsaw In this special move Kabal summons a big buzzsaw accross the battlefield, damaging and making the opponent fall to the ground. This is one of Kabal's best special moves, as it can hit enemies that are blocking. Perfect against turtles. Also a great panic move for when you are getting owned, just use this and stop their streak.
Tornado Slam In this attack Kabal grabs your opponent with his signature hookswords and spins them around until finally slaming them to the ground causing massive damage. I don't use this move much because it is nearly identical to his grab. I like to use this attack solely to trick the other player into thinking I'm doing something else then using it as a makeshit grab move.

So now that you know about Kabal's specials, here are some combo videos. I would do some more detailed text guide to combos, but I'm afraid they may be innacurate.
