From my handful of experience I don’t think it’s that far off. Dudley can mix Bison up pretty good. That new EX-Ducking adds like a bit more damage to some combos and Dudley trading j.HK is not in Bison’s favor anymore since his s.HK does less damage at the tip and Dudley’s j.HK knocks down like Cody’s nj.HP. I think it’s 5.5-4.5 Bison over Dudley for the fact that Bison can still turtle and time this out safely.
What Suparnovax said is right. Dudley gets outfootsied. Most of his normals that whiff gets punished by standing forward or RH depending. scissor kicks are annoying to him and when Dudley starts getting jump happy you can just walk out of his range and set up scissor kicks. Eventually they’ll start using fwrd fierce to get in and focus handles that. AA’s are situational and RH and crouch fierce work at different ranges cr fierce is more reliable at times though. Jump rh at fwrd range should just be blocked as annoying as that is.
5.5 in Dictators favor still yes!
