Omega Bison

Classic Fighting Games Ultra Street Fighter IV
81

Still haven’t played much but from what I’ve seen and notes I’ve read Bison is very explosive. Evil ryu explosive but, they took away the good tools which made bison who he is.

The fact c.lk doesn’t link into each other anymore throws me off so much

The weird angle I get from DR confuses me and I end up losing charge

One thing I do like is that I can cancel head stomp from DR that’s dope

EX doesn’t go through projectiles but can combo

His combo ability is great now and the damage is very much needed I guess it takes getting used to like I’ve said before.
Idk if it’s me but I’ve been playing more 2012/AE characters than omega and been going to work

82

Has the change time for SK been increased? I notice it is harder to do SK than it is for Ultra version. I end up getting dropped SK’s using Omega, whereas if I switch to Ultra version, I don’t. I tried making sure I had charge earlier when I was using Omega and it seemed to fix the problem.

Any idea why they changed that?

83

Probably ST inspiration.
Psycho crusher required less charge back then.
Also, in Omega, there’s not much reason to pick Scissors instead of Psycho, anyway. Both push the enemy to the corner, but Psycho has faster startup and much more damage.

84

But is PC still safe? Can you pressure with it in block strings?

85

No, unsafe as hell. 170 damage comes with a price

86

I was messing with it in training. Is it just me or are his MP combos easier now?

87

They feel easier for sure, they definitely adjusted some frames, close mk can combo into far mp for example. It feels very easy to make high damage combos on the flyy when you have ex for scissors.

88

MP is def WAY easier but is that only for omega or did it carry over into ultra as well

89

I think there’s a lot of characters with easier links in Omega. It’s not limited to only Bison.

90

so far the most damage for one bar ive gotten is 443 off of cl.hp xx qcb.mk
cl.hpxx qcb.mk > cr.mk xx qcb.lk > cr.lp > st.mp xx ex sk > cr.mp > st.mpxx hp.pc.
ive only tested on abel.

universal(afaik) and much easier is
cl.hpxxqcb.mk >st.lp > st.mp xx ex.scissors > st.mp xx hp.pc 426/440 damage depends on whether the first st.mp hits as close or far.

if anything good came out of omega its that its fun to do these combos

91

I actually find it sad that Omega Bison is not what they went with. This would have been a lot better to play with for the past 6 years

92

I disagree, I really don’t like the new DR. You have very little control over it :frowning:

I just use cLPx3,cLK/MK combos now, mix it up occasionally with sLK/LP and all that nonsense. Who the fuck cares when you can teleport stomp and ex PC is gdlk and ex SK leaves them standing for more rape?!?! His normal PC seems faster now, unless I’ve just been away from SFIV for that long. I was a little disappointed they didn’t seem to do much with his headstomp followup, tho

93

I don’t like the new DR either, or the flutter stomp, or the EX stomp. EX PC is just broken lol

What I do like is diagonal forward + HK (super turbo HK), diagonal df HP, and of course his new axe kick. That stuff he should have had. If they just gave us that stuff on Ultra Bison, that would make him really fun.
