Avdol is an "all-rounder" archetype of character and his arsenal of moves allow him to take any strategy the player sees fit to play, rather than be constricted to a specific, roughly 'optimal' gameplan for him by-design. This also means he possesses no major weaknesses as well. With his three different projectiles, he has more options than the average character for battling at range, allowing him to force his opponent into approaching. All the while, he possesses a command grab, two different reversal attacks, and a damaging melee skill with modular timing, granting him no shortage of methods to battle up close effectively.

An obscure strength of Avdol is his relative safety against a guarding opponent; both Crossfire Hurricane and the Light ({{ASBInput|L}}) version of "HELL 2U!" execute and end rather quickly. This means that he rarely leaves himself open to retaliation for his aggression, even as his attacks are properly blocked, so long as he finishes his offense with either of those two.

This means that he rarely leaves himself open to retaliation for his aggression, even as his attacks are properly blocked, so long as he finishes his offense with either of those two.


Noted drawbacks of Avdol include a somewhat exploitable defense and low damage. Both of his reversal moves are easily overcome and must be applied according to their situational strengths to use effectively. Some of his other moves can also be consistently outmaneuvered with some foresight, and he tends to have certain holes in his offense that can be easily exploited. Avdol's combos tend to deal less-than-average damage as well.
Noted drawbacks of Avdol include his HHA being oddly difficult to land against an aerial or juggled opponent, and quick mid-ranged attacks such as punch barrages overwhelming much of his moves. However, both of these are relatively minor weaknesses.


Ultimately, Avdol is a solid character and can be considered beginner-friendly if for some of his easy-to-use abilities. Knowing when and where to apply his special skills, from his various projectiles to his melee abilities, draws out his true strength. When played at his best, he can readily adapt to nearly any opponent and challenge them on their own terms time and again.
