SFV Lounge: Ken is high mid. Kage is barely mid. F2P still coming

Don’t worry, even tokido couldn’t deal with that move.

EX DR is basically Bison’s neutral DP. He doesn’t have walk speed or a real DP and relies on holding onto his v gauge to get his trigger shit going, so its like his way to reset neutral with a character that would have a hard time doing it otherwise. Nash is basically a lesser version of that where his VT1 teleport is essentially his reversal to place himself back into neutral or start an attack despite having no nuanced ground movement, 3 frame or EX DP.

Sometimes EX DR is just about dealing with it and even if you deal with it you still gotta deal with EX stomp to skull crusher stuff later on if he wants to mix it up with that. You saw Tokido at Evo, even he sometimes just had to bare it. It’s made to be a powerful neutral resetting move that only a few characters have legit true answers for.

I imagine Kolin and Abigail players don’t mind fighting Bipson as they have dangerous parry/counter moves that can meterlessly shut down EX DR abuse.

I figured as much, I am in no position to give SFV advice to everyone. I’ve got 3 years of catchup to do and I’m not that far along.

EX DR is stupid there’s your answer.

Anyone?

Note: only got 2 hours left

Pretty much. You know a move is too good when the people that main the character can’t really give you any grand advice for dealing with it. I personally think the best thing to know is to just know a move that can get behind the hit box, but even that is no guarantee.

do you wanna play me again or do you want a break for someone else?

Actually it crosses up the counter input (only whe. He wants) and he can punish v skill (or words)

We can go again, I have SRK open on my laptop so if @FlyingVe manages to get home safely in time I can break for that

Yeah realistically you’re looking at hard reads at best to deal with which way he’s moving with it. Abigail and Gief would be 2 of the strongest real examples that I know then. Both of those characters actually do a good job slowing down his air approach. Of course we’re too weeb to play those slow, burly characters that slow Bipson down.

I wanted to play, but I moved too slow.

Mhike2stronk Gief’s is so fun to watch.
He is in top 8 at Frosty Faustings now.

Of course I tried to search up Gief vs Bison and the first thing that comes up is from S2 LOL. No wonder Bison ran S3. They blew up one of the only guys that could slow him down.

Funny thing, Mhike trashed a Bipson player on stream to get to top 8.

Chris G using VT1 Sak. Figured he was gonna bust her out.

Skarlet has a skimpy outfit but it looks cooler than the old one.

Chris G sticking it out with Sak I respect it. This is rough match for her but probably more doable than before.

Nerf Sim.
NERF HIM!
