vs Adon: 4.5 - 5.5
Pros: Below-average stamina
Cons: Strong pressure game, fast speed, damaging combos

Move List:
Jaguar Crunch - Overhead, links into cr.LP.
st.HK – Good ranged poke, hits 2x to AB at mid-range.
njp.HK - Can hit you early on in his neutral jump.
njp.MK - On hit canceleable to Air JK.
jp.lk - Reduces his hit-box, long active frames.

Rising Jaguar (RJ) - AA special. EX has longer invul frames.
Jaguar Tooth (JT) - Range varies depending on attack. EX juggles, full screen.
Jaguar Kick (JK) – Pressure tool, ABs. EX is an overhead, armor breaks. Air JK has good recovery but no armor break.

Jaguar Varied Assault (S) - Rush attack with variable endings.
Jaguar Revolver (U1) – Goes through fireballs. Range varies.
Jaguar Avalanche (U2) – AA/Rush ultra. Can be FADCed from RJ.

Preferred Ultra: Soulless
Breathless seems bad in this match-up cause Adon has many AB moves (JT, JK, st.HK). Using it as an anti-jump in doesn't work either cause he can change his direction in the air with JK. Soulless on the other hand beats JK if timed right and JT too.

Strategy:
Fighting Adon really looks like an uphill battle on paper. He's really fast, getting his stuff up in your face pretty quick. He absolutely dominates the footsie and pressure game on the ground with st.HK, cr.MP, JK and air JKs. He has a godly semi-vortex of ambiguous cross-ups and a great throw range. Be on the ball when he's pressuring and just block those hits. Watch for an out and just EX TT or EX roll away.

Don't try to play this match by rushing at him. Adon is nimbler and speedier than Abel; he'll dance around you all day. Take the match at your pace and let him take the fight to you. What you really want to do is fish for opportunities here with the usual stuff, fwd.MK, tick throws, cross-ups, whatever. Adon's defense is not absolutely airtight as well and that, coupled with his below-average stamina, gives you a chance to end the fight quickly and on your terms.

Flipside:
- Keep Abel away and bait him towards you to attempt to knock him
- If he blocks do the basic bnb but rather do a weak JT to get out of harms way
- If Abel has Breathless you can just armor break it with a rh.JT
- Souless isn't as easy so be careful if Abel is using that Ultra
- Also keep a look out for Sky Fall since it can really wreck Adon
- Neutral fierce seems to work as a better poke in this match up

Notes:
- Adon's dash keeps him very low to the ground, giving him the ability to dash under you if you try to jump in on him.
- Jaguar Tooth is safe on block (-2f) vs. Abel. EX TT can be used to counter Jaguar Tooth but you need to be very attentive and watch for it coming. Execute EX-TT just as he is about to connect as it will whiff otherwise.
- At max range back jp.MK is a good way to punish HK JT. At mid range njp.LK is the better option.
- Adon has a long throw range (as long or slightly shorter than Chun-Lis); be careful of tick throws.
