I dont know if this as been asked already but I really dont want to go through 25 pages. I just got into Bison about 2 weeks ago and I feel that I finally found my main character. I was wondering if its better to negative edge c.lk>sk or anything that is a kick going into a SK? Also what else can be alternated in the BnB combo c.lp>s.lp>c.mk>Sk? Like I seen some people do c.mp instead of c.mk.
Welcome to the forum. To answer your questions:
-There is no real benefit to negative edging the scissor kick after a crouching lk. Whatever you are more comfortable with. You should know that if you are confirming into the scissor kick, or punishing something, it’s better to go for mk scissors. By doing the lk version you’re giving up (potentially) 20 damage, and with bison every bit counts.
-The biggest change people make with the cr lp, st lp, cr mk xx scissors bnb is replacing the st lp with st lk. This is done because far st lp to cr mk is a much tighter link than close st lp, so if your spacing is just a little off (like after a crossup), you can get the wrong lp and could wind up missing the link as a result. St lk is the same regardless of distance, and linking cr mk afterwards isn’t that much harder. I pretty much just do that link instead.
FYI, there are dedicated combo threads stickied in the forum, as well as a welcome guide. If you have general bison questions, you can find a lot of answers there.
Ah thanks for your help. I got so used to using lk SK on block that I just started using it normally cause I heard it was safe.
Cody is serious business
Cody is serious bizznit only when hes is " I DGAF mode, straight up hella-poke-string-mix up-block-combo mode. Niggeh is hella in for it when u backdash/teleport and hk and Mk him. (i play US codys, japans codys may be way more sik wid it)
Hey Kim, can you check if cr strong x2 combos in AE? I’ve seen it, but am unsure of the circumstances.
You need to post more often!
If you aren’t extremely accurate with your cr. lk, cr. lk, cr. lk xx sk, use lk scissors. If you are 100% with your combos, yeah 20 damage adds up over time. However, 20 damage is nothing compared to the huge punish you’ll get if you miss the link and get a blocked mk scissors.
Did they change his frame data in AE? c. mp is +6 on hit and has 7 frame startup, so in super it only combos on counter hit!
Counter hit only combo
Yeah Im not very consistent with it yet but I do like negative edging the lk.SK. I feel like its going to be a bad habit when I want to start leading up with mk.SK.
What’s a good way to start out a match? I usually start going in and out playing footies with st.mk, punishing jump-ins with st.hk/cr.hp. What I’m having trouble against are people who are playing turtles, and I only find myself and option to only grab after a blockstring, but it get usually gets teched.
Hey Kim, you actually LOOK like the great Bison in youth himself haha!

Noob question to anyone from that vid -> Is that jump-in teleport on opponent’s EX PC an OS? Did it 2 times correctly so it probably is? If so, how?
Typical bison mirror between two great players…A FUCKIN’ CHESS MATCH!:lovin:
That is definitely an OS. It will only lose to Bison’s backdash and probably EX-DR. The input timing should be the same as Ryu’s dp OS.
Hey Kim just watched that mirror you played with TUC.
Did you know after landing LK scissors, you can jump forward HK and use an OS backthrow to throw him out of EX Psycho Crusher’s throwable frames? (If he quickstands, that is)
Thats awesome Mariodood. I had that happen to me once. Good to know the set up.
Any videos of this?
Just set up a recording of Bison doing cr. LK -> LK scissors, hold up, j. HK -> OS back throw as you land.
Its not hard. This is my secret tech for mirrors against Andre Bison back in vanilla. Dunno if it still works in AE.
Doesn’t work vs delay quick standing and reversal ex headstomp/ex scissor kick
