People hate Bison because he’s an entry level character like Guile, Balrog and Zangief. It’s easier to win with them against average skilled players.
Not 2nd most hated, but definitely on my top 5. I kinda enjoy the matchup (I play Vega), but whenever I see a Bison pick on a stream, I know the next match is gonna be hella lame to watch. Because Bison is fucking boring.
I like how all these people say he’s easy to win with and stuff.
Against people who press buttons, dont know about crossup psychocrusher, or that reverse and stomp is block high- sure he’s easy.
But he’s hard to use at higher levels. Lower damage + not the best mixup game starts to expose him…
Had someone at the local scene yesterday amazed that people still don’t know how to block crossup crusher. Yeah people still try and mash dp on wakeup to try and beat that most of the time which usually doesn’t work.
Low damage and predictable as all hell is likely most of the problem at high level.
I hated him in Super, most of that was because I wasn’t proficient in the matchup. As of right now the only character I hate is Blanka. Although Yun is obviously godlike you do have to be a solid player to make him work.
fix’d. Yun is easymode lol
elaborate on how much harder yang is than yun. i do agree with you to an extent but to say that yang requires solid play and yun is easymode makes absolutely no sense to me. you could prolly flowchart either twin and play at mid level fairly quickly (if you have an elementary knowledge of how the game is played) but if you don’t learn anything about the characters i doubt you could go much further.
to be fair, bison is a very strong character
i try to talk as little as possible about him in fear of the capcom nerf train.
but yea blanka is probably the most hated thanks to him growing stronger with every lag spike
Bison has to grind for his wins, all serious Dictator mainers have my respect.
Nothing flashy or cheap about him, hatred is unwarranted.
easier to use, less technical, his super, safe as hell, dope meter gain + broken super, GET IN FOR FREE moves <— biggest one
the lunge punch is really what makes him braindead. Did you just see Marn vs Jakob bipson on Ark stream?
At least he got 4th… still (ノ °益°)ノ
this. He’s heavy on fundamentals and patience. Why you would be a hater is beyond me.
yangs divekicks are safer and saying easier to use and less technical is definitely not an elaboration. meter gain is a benefit to how strong both characters are but if you do not know how to use the meter wisely then it means nothing. both characters have get in for free moves.
goes back off the srk boards after seeing how much the average SRKer knows about the game
and yours is? I dislike arguing, but I’m calling you out. Don’t just act elitist without justifying your side of the argument. So sorry, but it’s pretty much universally agreed Yun is easier to use than Yang. I have an important exam to study for concerning my job so I don’t have time for a write up. But a pro like you shouldn’t need one, right?
Back in the day when I was playing SF2 turbo on my Sega Genesis I used to think Bison was broken because I didn’t know that you had to crouch block slide. But then again how do you crouch block on a Genesis pad? I remember having to use start and select as attack buttons LOL
I believe if you block correctly and output more damage than you recieve you shut down any character ^^
Yang’s dive kicks are safer on block but he has a greater height restriction as well. This is the difference that means I have a small chance to at least trade with his lowest height dive kicks. Yun’s I can not if he’s close which he will be sooner or later and has the slightest idea how to aim them. Yang also doesn’t usually do anywhere near the damage Yun does, Yang also doesn’t have the free in’s.
yeah, another thing. His spacing is stricter.
Blanka is the most hated

I played Dictator like 99/100 games I’d ever play (back when I mained him in Super) and I never got any hate or salt over wins.
I get salty over fighting against him though, lol. The headstomp is almost like a taunt in itself. He has like this smug fucking chuckle when he bounces on your head like a god damn trampoline, he even does a back flip.
He’s not the 2nd most hated character, but EX Headstomp has to be up there with the Blanka rainbow ball for one of the most hated moves in the game, along with Oni’s cross-up slash.
he calls your a scrub in japanese, and calls you weak in english when he does ex headstomp, lol
