The SSF4 Dictator Request Thread

Really hope I get a reason to keep maining Bison in super. He’s got tools, but dashing into throw and standing MK and Roundhouse are getting stale to me.
That said at worst he will be an alt as I pick up Juri and a third striker. Really hope it doesn’t come to that though please capcom just fix his specials and let his new ultra punish fireballs on reaction and I’ll be happy.

That’s exactly what I’m talking about. Giving him psycho banish and making it an overhead would just add a little flavor to him. It’d be useful and not overpowered.

No, you must believe!!!

say it. I BELIEVE!

it makes sense capcom is catering to the mindless masses my improving the popular Sagat with new tools and fixing what was wrong with him.

M,Bisons target combo from CvsS1 would also do him some good.

And Dan got a new punch(probably mid,remind Ryu’s jump+MP) on jump,is a normal but is still something new… let’s hope :smiley:

-pray for psycho banish-

i don’t remember,it was possible do in combo

near standing HP -> HP Banish ?

Please, a decent (reliable) anti-air. that’s ALL I would wish for, anything else would just be icing on the cake. Standing HK SHOULD work, but it friggin trades with everything (or worse yet loses).

If all of these other characters are getting these adjustments then Bison will be fine. I just want to see the third costume.

So all the other characters got their news on whats going on yet we bison mains are still left in the dirt.

:crybaby:

I think dictator just needs to be scary again. I tinkered with sagat yesterday and was like, wow, look at all this cool stuff he has! Kara knees and TU FADCs and ultras, oh my! Then I went back to dictator and was like…I have solid footsies. Yay. I’m excited.

The best thing he has is c.lk to scissors, and that’s honestly not even that good. it’s not like dic gets advantage after it, he’s at zero. This is how stale dictator is, that we’re ecstatic to have a special that’s NEUTRAL on block.

I want him to get something CRAZY in SSF4. Rufus has crazy stuff (EX messiah, EX snakestrike, lolj.HK), akuma has crazy stuff (Vortex), and that’s what makes them fun. Give bison something crazy.

man in the corner, bison IS excitement. Other than that, and its you doing 70 fake moves, sliding around, teleporting backwards, pressing mk or hk, and getting as many SKs as you can before you get countered/thrown out of em.

I miss the old days when all we wanted was a faster cHP and a non shitty PC

Believe and you shall receive!!

Bison will be top tier when ssf4 drops. (at least for the few weeks the game is fresh lol then its back to the rat race again.0_0)

dan’s neutral jump mp is nothing new

<–Scarf 'em down.
I main Rose, Sir. I got problems of my own very similar to yours. I mean you have a way to combo into Ultra! I could consider Guile a secondary of mine, so I’m not clueless to the “charge characters suck” dilemma… I’ve also played many Bisons, so I’m well aware that he has certain problems.

If I could be charitable to your character, and make a couple wishes in how he plays: It’d be sweet if Dictator could air teleport during devil’s reverse right before inputting the punch to create some uncertainty against your opponent.

If not that, then something similar would be to really bring back SF2 Bison by allowing the follow-up to headstomp to land on either side of the opponent so they either have to well time a possible reversal as to not whiff, or when blocking, backdashing or focusing, have to engagingly think their actions through and not just know for sure that they only have to block on one side or otherwise avoid it.

Another possible thing to bring back from SF2 is making psycho crusher safe on block, as in 3 chips of block stun and going full screen. They probably wouldn’t bring back the full effect, but I’d love to see a compromise.** I want Bison to be scary to play AGAINST***. Even if they nerf psycho crusher damage to be 50 on hit, or at least not 100 on hit, but made it safe on block, that’d be quite an improvement.

  • I have played scary Bison’s, but what makes him scary is corner pressure which depends on c.lk xx Knee Press, devil reverse fake/head stomp, throw game (which isn’t unique to Bison), s.HK, fake cross-up etc… In that, he doesn’t have any other tricks (Especially mid range, save teleport and slide) to get a win; meaning he’s rather linear.

I’d rather have SSF4 test my reaction rather than my patience.

Don’t forget why. His scissor kicks were unsafe, all of them. His normals were shit, head stomp follow up and devil’s reverse were worst than sf4 dictator’s due to the dumb angle dive he does. His head stomp was usable but that was about it, he wasn’t even an offensive character, just a turtle, runaway bloated ******. This is alpha 3 dictator, btw.

Rose? Ouch, I feel for you.
I don’t think the pyscho banish is necessary if he gets an instant overhead. It will help but it’s not a requirement. Anything so that he can keep the pressure on and be scary if you guess wrong would be great, so a bit more classic bison shenanigans to keep the mind games and offence going and damage that would make him a bit scarier would be nice. The new ultra also looks great both visually and in terms of how this can open up dictator’s strategy for attack. I wonder if it’s considered a throw or more like abel’s rekkas… actually, any new info would be nice.

I like dictator too much to quit playing him altogether but like most people here I’ll probably consider maining of the 3S guys otherwise.

At this point I willing to take anything capcom will give Bison, New moves along with the stuff Bison has now wont hurt him Nuff said.

Capcom unveil the beast alraedy!

Because of the startup animation I can say with certainty that it is not a throw, but an overhead “headstomp” hit. Looks like it’s easy to punish fireballs and laggy moves with this, but comboing into it seems unlikely, just like you can’t combo into headstomp.

Hopefully they give one or even two more options for Dictator to land Nightmare Booster, so that there’s a clear difference between the two and makes Bison more dangerous against specific characters. Say goodbye to your fireball games motherfuckers.

Make cr. Hp put them into a juggleable state from an air hit and you got yourself a viable ultra.

touche.

Bison is excitement in the corner, along with an overwhelming majority of the game. Who isn’t?

I’m not saying I want more than c.HP buff and PC buff. But one of those buffs should be terrifying.

c.HP launch on counter hit, or beta PC with easier crossups and 300+ stun. make it happen capcom.
