"BEST BIPSON!" - Dictator Match-Ups

This might sound crazy, but I think Hugo is one of those characters :smiley:

Still having trouble against good elenas. Nobody in my scene plays her even a little bit and I only run into one in a blue moon online but there’s one french guy who plays her really well and I’m all at sea when he gets his mixups going.

Any advice from anyone who plays a good one on the regs?

Chun-Li is like the bane of my existence. I can block hazanshu and shit but it’s so fucking uphill for me mentally. I don’t have any match footage of my terrible play but can someone tell me how it is that Bison should play to the match-up and what buttons can beat her pokes (especially st.mp and st.hp). I get outfootsied so hard by her and I have a really hard time getting anything started. Also who do you guys think wins the match-up theoretically?

I’m still having a horrible time against Poisons - she’s just Guile with a bigger schlong

I’ve heard some people say that it’s in Chun’s favour but I always thought it was even. She may be able to outzone/outpoke you (which some good focus dashes will nullify) but your pressure outweighs hers. EX PSYCHO CRUSHER MUAHAHAHA. It is hard to whiff punish her, cause she can just throw out her godlike sweep at any moment, but some bs scissor kick pressure will destroy her. I hate how her EX spinning vagoo beats my EX headstomp…

Okay thanks I’ll work on my focus dashing then, but I’ve noticed that st.mp only has about 10 frames of recovery and that Bison’s forward dash is 17 frames which means she’s at pseudo frame advantage. this will probably help with my ailments with st.hp and st.hk though. maybe my own st.mp can beat it out if I time it right or some shit at the right range

Guys I have a tournament coming up in three weeks which is a pretty major deal round my way. I was beaten in grand finals last year from winners by a vega who is coming again to this one. I’m scared shitless of Vega as he out pokes bison badly and I like to play footsies and dominate the neutral game if I can.

Can you guys please let me know what the optimal game plan is against Vega please? What should I be looking out for? This guys defense is brilliant and his spacing is gdlk. I hate him!!

Should I be playing a really dry game against Vega and not pressing too many buttons or go balls to the wall rushdown? Just have never been able to figure this matchup out at all.

Cheers for any help.

Try slowly walking him down to the corner. It is importsnt to know your range against vega, then its easy to whiffpunish him. Bison wins the pressure game.

Vega has trouble with frame traps. Poke him and lame him out. If you get a chance to get in, frame traps all day.

here are some on-block punishes against rolento:

ground pogo: can’t punish because it’s -2 on block, but a cr.LK in return is still in your favor. Must be blocked high

air pogo: can be blocked low. After dropping down with his pogo stick, rolento will ricochet back up and forward in the air to do any following jump attack. Mash cl.HP after blocking the pogo. The cl.HP will either hit, or whiff but allowing you to recovery fast enough to grab him when lands his jump attack

EX overhead: cr.LK

1st rekka: cr.LK

2nd rekka: far.MP (cl.MP is too slow). If he’s too close to punish with far.MP, do cr.MK instead

3rd rekka: ultra

EX rekka: cl.MP

roll (including EX): s.MK or LK.super. Can be grabbed before it hits you but timing is strict

far fierce: s.HK or LK.super. You must be close enough otherwise these punishes will whiff

punishing the EX overhead and 1st rekka is extremely strict because cr.LK must be plinked earlier than what the animation suggests

Does Bison have any good matchups besides Rose? Even after getting buffed it feels like every match is either neutral or a struggle in terms of matchup

Cheers gents for the vega info.

Bison has loads of 6-4 matchups but nothing much better than that.

how…the fuck…do you punish decapre’s slashes why the fuck is she safe after everything online but dp

Because lp and ex daggers are just safe?

Are you M. Bison? …Nevermind…why the fuck do people answer a question with a question…if i knew the answer I wouldn’t of asked…now go suck a fuck and learn how to not be a half way ass about shit

if you responded to me showing m frustration in the original question…you can still go suck a fuck

anyway

Seems like for online play the simplest punish would be any light into SK/Super. I didn’t spend time long enough to see if I can get a crMK into a Heavy Scissor Kick which would probably allow some fadc combos…

I’m only a 2 day bison…2 month Ultra player so I’m learnin’

No rapid daggers are safe. The lp can be punished by short into scissors but it’s a 1 frame punish and situational as it doesn’t work if she starts them up from far away.

Cr short to whatever is your go to punish though.

Also: I know the advice wasn’t particularly helpful but you should maybe be a bit nicer to people as we’re all here to try and help each other out. Name calling and shit slinging helps no one.

Just because someone doesn’t use curse words, doesn’t mean they aren’t being an ass.

Thank you for the advice.

ellipsis abuse man.

anyways sorry for telling you why, next time I’ll just tell you to eat a dick.

Actually I am M. Bison, yes! I am THE dictator himself. I merely hide under this screen name to keep my shadowloo activities hidden so I can watch my minions and see how they are messing up when I am around.

If you cannot punish Decapre, then you have no yet mastered the Tao of Bison!

j/k

Decapre’s lp version of her rappid dagger move is -3 on block and -5 on block for her mp version, and -7 for the hp version. EX is 100% safe.

If you are going to punish her, she can’t be using the lp or EX versions. preferably I would use c.lk, but I have not tested this. c.lk has 3 frame startup.

C.mk is a 5 frame startup move, so you would need to use that only on the HP version of daggers. Do you think players will give you that option on a block string if they know frame date?

Yummy xD

Been having a hard time against Balrog recently. Is the advice still get the life lead then sit on down back all day?

Got a guy in my scene who punishes EVERYTHING for 300 damage so I have to play perfectly to beat him.
