Well are you trying to burn meter after the d2 or not?
I'm fine with that, although is it worth it unless for closing matches? D2s scale the hardest.
Lol, dude, The only option Black adam has to get out of pressure is to pretty much poke cancel into a special. If the opponents strings have ANY sort of pushback, Black adam can do shit to either punish or stop them from doing an advancing attack. His normals have SHORT range. Play superman. How does Adam deal with F23 spam?
I'm not sure how much damage you can get tbh, I'm pretty sure you could combo into ex black magic out of something to get a decent combo. I actually forgot idk any uppercut combos for the most part. I would just wing it hahaha.
If you hit them out of the air you can get a B23 in.
1) Nothing is wrong with poke cancelling into a special, that's probably the best option for getting out of pressure in the first place. What normals are you talking about man? The range on almost everything except for maybe standing 1 are pretty good. As far as the Superman comment goes, I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that you have to either poke out or use armor to get out of f23 ice breath at all with anyone. (Because Ice Breath is +1 on block I think) So you are kind of just trying to make it sound like Black Adam is bad when really Supes is busted.Lol, dude, The only option Black adam has to get out of pressure is to pretty much poke cancel into a special.

6frames is great, but it's a 6 frame T-rex arm bitch slap which is covered by the universal action of crouching and poking. Almost all of his options are beat by that.
If I am playing a black adam, my strategy is going to be jump from full screen cause there is pretty much nothing he can do but dive kick and I can potentially win that air to air and if I don't, BA is still closer to me than I started. Once I get in, I can poke him to death, and there is virtually nothing he can do but try to d1 special me. Even if he backdashes, I just get to jump again. Once that D2 gets stuffed a few times and full combo punished, it's hard to warrant throwing it out
Maybe land a Black Magic after grounded d2.
After B23 2 will whiff.
What about f2? I haven't tried that yet. I don't think you can combo off of it, but you can hit f23 and put the opponent full screen at least.
I am not talking about F23~breathe which is +1 I am just talking about F23.
22 is only 1 frame slower, can be poked just like 22 but its 8F now.
What does he punish with?
Most D1's are +10 or so on hit. Some are + on block and some are -1.
That's the thing, they aren't gigantic flaws. The only thing you can tell me about standing one that is bad is that people low poke it and it's range. There are simple ways to deal with both, learn the range and stop getting predictable with it. People don't crouch 6 frame jabs on reaction. As for pressure, again this isn't the Flash, and he isn't a rushdown character so if you are looking to keep pressure going all match find another character.
STANDING 1!!!! Omg the nerve lol. Really you have this great tool, and because it has one flaw that doesn't even apply to punishes you freak out and call the move garbage.
The effective range of the jab is RIGHT NEXT TO THE PERSON. They will be crouching. If a poke beats all of his strings, why the hell wouldn't they poke? There is no range to learn. The range of the move is in their face. It has NO range. There is no reason to do it "on reaction" when the poke covers every one of his starting strings not set off a frame trap (where a poke would beat their poke).
You are downplaying stand jab so hard right now. The range isn't right in your face, it's like a bit less than sweep range. I really think you just have no idea how to play footsies at this point.
if you whiff such a string you deserve to get whiff punishedWhat does he punish with?
Also, B23 is a really good string and is advantageous on block, but it is REALLY whiff punishable. In it's effective range, Black Adam is actually at his most vulnerable. As you said above, 22 can be poked, 1 is useless as it can be poked too, B23 has 10 frames start up so it to can be poked.
Midrange you have to make sure that the b2 is going to connect. If the opponent jumps, your getting blown up, if the opponent back dashes because the first b2 whiffed, your getting hit.
If he is truly a bait and punish character, what does he bait with, and how does he punish?
I honestly think Black adam is going to be a trap character. I think it will revolve around his +100 on block lightning traps. Throw mixups and general being annoying. We just got to unlock that aspect of the character
