Bison needs higher stun combos.

Bison needs better dmg on the combo’s he already has IMO

Everyone needs higher damage.

Not everyone, Viper most certainly does not for example

I’m perfectly fine with these buffs instead of old U2. Bison is top tier, don’t give a fuck what anyone says.

Still miss the old command for U2. It’s a troll tactic now in my game :lol:

First hit of scissor was given an extra frame of hitstun, so you have one extra frame off an FADC.

Also, I keep seeing Ono tweet about issues with the AE’12 patch but it’s not really clear what’s going on… and I’m out of town so I’m not really keeping up with things at the moment. Have there been problems with it?

Knee press stun buff = meh imo

This does not really help in his bad match ups, ( you’re never going to stun Guile or Ryu ). This just makes it so that people who have problems with knee press pressure have even more problems with Bison, I ran some sets yesterday with probably one of my personal favorite match ups, Juri, and I definitely saw that she got stunned more when I had her in the corner, but this did not really change alot since Juri is already kind of dead when he’s cornered against Dictator.

The increased hitstun off the first hit of scissors kick definitely makes it easier to FADC link into another combo. That’s if you want to waste the bar going into another combo. I would only do that if I think i’m on the verge of stunning the opponent, or killing them completely. It’s probably easier to frame trap characters using a S.FP after an FADC too. Usually with balrog, this is very hard, but it’s probably easier now. I’ll have to test it.

Bison doesn’t need higher stun combos lol. Now that his sRH is back to 10+ dmg, his damage is fine too.

I don’t think this is useful but CH scissors FADC st.fierce works as a combo… It’s tight though, prob 1 frame… Very useless but I can confirm it works lol…

CH scissors? You mean RH scissors right?

No i mean CH meaning Counterhit scissors… RH scissor FADC doesn’t give u enough frame advantage to link the st. fierce… Like I said its very impractical, but it’s there…

Edit: What a useless “buff” they gave him… They should’ve made it +7 so he could at least link cr.mp to cr.mk etc…

Used U2 today on a plasma shooter today. . . . AWESOME!

Lies!!!

lol

Took a while for the matchvids to get uploaded. Choked horribly in grand finals, lots of execution errors and incredibly bad decision making at times (those slides and terribly spaced scissors). Last round in grand finals is really ridiculous, looks like both me and my opponent didn’t even wanted to win because we fucked up so much:

Here is also the grand final of the ranking battle the month before:

Still good shit! lol @ hiim wearing ryu headband

So I’m seeing more Bison’s use U2 in AE 2012 replays. Is there a reason for this? I think that U2 can be pretty useless, but that’s probably because I never have success with it.

Get life lead and hold back. They’ll come.

How does it help get the life lead?

^play a solid ground game and dont jump in unless it’s safe.

Last night i ran some casuals with the best ryu out here in Chicago, I didn’t jump in unless it was a safe jump. I kept him in check with mk and solid spacing for AA roundhouse.

EDIT:: Jakob002, how hyped are these tournies you attend? do you have ppl yelling right in your ear? Ive actually gotten good at blocking all that out when I play in tournament. Some people let it affect their play but I just use it to my advantage.
