The Bison Thread

The only I don’t worry about is punishing.
Cross up tech roll can be punished with S.MK > S.HK > Juggle.
Bison’s good walkspeed and great poking range seals the deal.

But what if you don’t want to switch characters on the punish? e.g. if your other character has low life, or a lot of recoverable life, which he will lose if you tag him in.

I don’t think he will lose life if you tag in, or am I mistaken?

I understand it works just like marvel, where the incoming character (not Bison in my example) loses any recoverable life when they are tagged in.

From my point of view, Bison is not the damage dealer. It seems to me that he works as a partner for a mixup character.
Bison has no trouble getting in and dealing a knockdown overall. He’s mobile, has excellent range, no trouble with fireballs, punishes easily and everything KDs.
Make him knock the opponent down and change to Hugo, Zangief or a Tekken guy to take advantage of it.

You just need to gem Bison up hahaha

in that case use sMK>cHK

It looked like PC crossed up in the first supernovax vid, rufus landed on the tail and got knocked away from bison. Can we confirm it definitely doesn’t cross up? Cheers guys.

I can tell the crossup hit is different. In SF4, the opponent is pushed away from the landing point. In SFxTK, he’s sent to the landing point.

Haven’t had it cross up yet. I’m inclined to believe it doesn’t

Sorry yeah, reviewing the vid it’s obvious, rufus is knocked towards the pc trajectory so it’s pretty clear it’s a same side hit.

so what gems are y’all using for Bison?

I’m not sure how well he can be on point or anchor but if I have him out first I’m using meter, defense, and speed.

Am I the only one who think its hard to cancel bisons cr.lk to knee press?
The motion is kinda weird. Like, you charge downback, then you gotta move the stick back and the forward.

I use meter, speed and defense with Bison as point character.

You have to do it a little slower. I had this problem because I kept trying to recharge asap. There’s a lot of adjustments to make.

how do you tag out for a juggle combo with Bison? I need every tip I can for a mini tournament tomorrow I’m gonna go with Guile/Bison I think

This is also how I see it. I’m going to run Bison/Hugo for this reason.

Tag cancels are done by hitting MP+MK

thanks Bison’s combo sure looks fun to try out!
