That was delicious.

Xbox Live is funny at times (great video, music was lulz-inducing), esp. when you meet such scrubs. I was playing good ol’ Xbox Live and meet this Sagat, and I’ve already picked Sagat since when shit lags it’s best to play a zoning character. Dude has as much BP as my sagat (9.5k) so I think damn some competition. After some zoning from my Sagat dude gets so mindfucked he gives up and starts taunting at the end and I keep kara shotting. Then I get a msg ‘tiger tiger tiger tiger LOSER!’. Yeah sorry I’m supposed to use TK at the tip to zone, and walk up to you with my akuma like walk speed right? Retard.

Bison is retired from my hands in AE, Psycho Punisher now charge makes me really miss it in some situations (I compare it to Sagat losing his tiger shot juggles, which was the sex) and nerfed cr.lk. Bring on Yun/Evil Ryu!

1603

Aw sorry to hear your leaving the Bison army :[

Speaking of retiring my Bison is done with ranked. Today I finally got him back to 5 K. Timing absolutely couldn’t of been better because I’m starting my human resources certification tonight. Most I had with him was 5042 and then I get d/c 3 times in a row (i had wireless) and got knocked down to 4770. My short journy into rising back to 5 K had all atrocious connections and I took a big gamble but I had to get my Dic back up-

… wow that sounded wrong. I mean, I don’t even have one so- eeeeeeee o_O

but yeha, it’s not a big deal to get 5 k by any means, but for me it was victory (actually more like revenge because you know how salty i am over that shit) against lag and the random d/cing.

Now watch AE get released for console within the next 5 mins, I turn on my Xbawks and they reset everyone’s bp back to zero lmao. IDC I’m a fucking stubborn chick, it felt really nice getting my favorite character back to 5 k. If it doesn’t get reset when AE comes out and I get my connection sorted out (going to get a more powerful router but at this point i’ve given up hope lol.) my Bison will return to ranked and I’m going to try to get exactly 7777 bp on him. I hit 1337 pp on purpose 3 times, I don’t see why I can’t do something similar with bp lol. I noticed when you are 1337 people on endless taunt you more haha.

so yeah let it be known
my Bison>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> my router

I’ll return…when Bison has some new fun factor/technology. Congrats on 5k BP, hard to grind on laggy connections, my Bison is stuck at 12k, can barely level him up, I want A dammit.

1605

Thanks. It felt like I hit 10 K when I got him back to 5 k haha. It wasn’t without causalties though. When I was at 4900, I used my poor Juri to do some connection scouting to see if it was like, freezing lag/ 100% unplayable and she lost a few matches getting caught in a few of them. She isn’t harmed as bad in lag as Bison (it still hurts her though) so if she can’t adapt in the connection then that means my Bison will get steamrolled in the same one lol.

Wow 12k nice! You sure you’re going to just leave him like that? He’s still really good from what I’m hearing and seeing, but I totally understand him losing the fun factor with more pushback on lk. See with me I’m more of a poking, turtling, baiting and punishing Dictator so the changes will compliment my playstyle perfectly. However I can see Bison getting a little boring for those who loved all that pressuring.

Just don’t let Bison himself catch you saying he isn’t fun because
[media=youtube]2qiKhLs0jQw[/media] For real. :wow:

1606

Yep I think I’m bout to get online and play for a while, I agree with Laud about AE steeling the hype though. I mean wtf is the point of practicing a game that there are two different versions of? And especially if I go to devestation and evo… Well yeah the game is different and there are new strategies and what not that im not about to drive three hours to go learn. HAHA I can barely make it to my local scene anymore, seems like I always have plans. Between school, my girl, and 2-3 hour work outs I have almost no time to play, and when I do I just can’t bring myself to give a shit at all since AE is out there. How can you win when you don’t give a shit?! its just pointless.

On anther yet the same subject I really am gonna try hard to make it out to Fight Club this weekend, and see all those guys. Seems like its been too long.

Oh and props to all you Bison players who still care enough to try, you have more will power than I do haha.

1607

I’m pretty sure black people don’t know how to resurrect themselves from the dead :rofl:

1608

What are you talking about I know at least two black dudes that have come back from the dead!

1609

Bison in Super is still fun as hell. Psycho Punisher (esp. after LK scissor kick on hit, you do a psycho crusher, they don’t tech to avoid the cross up, and you do immediate Psych Punisher. This can hit either normal or cross WITHOUT direction, and nearly all reversals will whiff. Can’t be done in AE, extreme mindfuck) and no pushback on scissor (I love stuff that are like loops, scissor kick>cr.lk x 3 etc.) and helps his cr.lk is boss to continue the pressure. So no he’ll get to A when my connection is better. But when AE DLC drops it’s over, supposedly Makoto has Focus Attack Level 2 > Dash > Focus Attack Level 2 > Dash as a loop, very yummy!

1610

I wasn’t boring last night when I visited your Mother!

I think the reason they put pushback on the lk sk was because some characters really couldn’t do much about the loops if they lacked a move hitting on frame 3, and even if they did they still could get hit lol.

For MvC3, i’m going to wait for a price drop, see what DLC come in, reviews ect. If mashing is out that alone might warrant a purchase though… i heard the netcode is suppose to be better too

1611

Exactly, some characters had to eat 3 scissor kicks in a row if no meter, or even with meter it’s risky (Makoto). Lots of chip + really feels boss. You can add more scissors if you mind-fucked them and perform scissor > scissor.

Day One Purchase for MvC3. If you love Bison, Wesker should be automatically included. And he has unblockable shenanigans.

1612

THIS IS DELICIOUS:

Bastien Vives : Street Fighters

1613

That first picture scares me…

The rest of them are going to give me nightmares tonight.

1614

welp, i know what im going to spam all over smashboards now

Bison in a polo outfit… i nearly choked on the food i was eating was NOT expecting that

1615

reading the comments about justifications of why sk loop was nerfed is making me sad, im gonna go own some noobs on ranked now

1616

Haha well the link to my blogspot is in my signature =) just scroll down a bit until you see the title “Dancing with the claw for beginners - Part I”

It first goes over “DO NOT DO THIS!” with him and then the next few articles cover other things. In the middle of doing an Okizeme article because his Okizeme can be hilariously fun.

1617

How do you block that stupid ex wall dive where he goes through you and then hits you in the back? I always get confused even though I play a Vega main quite a bit. I don’t really pay attention to Vega’s moves. Is that the only move Vega has that goes through you like that?

[bitching and moaning]
Also, I’d like to let out a lot of frustration and say that Bison’s special moves have some of the worst priority in the entire game. I mean, seriously. If the move doesn’t have invincibility, it has a huge chance of getting stuffed outright- not to mention the fact that most moves don’t work the way they’re supposed to.
HS: Uh yeah, it’d be a great anti-air if it had a LITTLE bit of pursuit property. Hell, moving slightly in the air (or even being stuck in a 20-30 frame focus attack animation that slightly shifts the body over) causes the move to whiff.
DR: Yeah, great 80 frame overhead that doesn’t even reach all the way to the floor. So someone who’s in crouch block just has to get lower to the ground to avoid even blocking the move.
SK: Yeah it’s a great low-crusher except for the fact that it gets stuffed by a ton of low moves.
PC: What good is an armor breaker if it’s too slow to function as one?
Ex-PC: What good is an anti-fireball move if it flat out loses to a normal high tiger shot? Similarly, what good is a great wall of fire / horizontal DP if it gets stuffed by a feather touching the top of it? Like seriously?
[/bitching and moaning]

Meh, I know. Bison’s pretty much top tier and he has great normals. I just feel that all the great Bison players aren’t playing Bison to his full potential like say Tokido does with Akuma. I feel like they’re just compensating for all of Bison’s weaknesses. I don’t know. I don’t think “great pressure” is a legitimate strength just like “low health” isn’t a legitimate weakness. I mean sure, Bison’s pressure will win games, just like Seth’s low health will lose them. But in the long run, isn’t that just against new and unexperienced players? On a consistent basis, I mean. Yeah Andre can beat Daigo and Kim1234 can beat Justin Wong. And yeah they did it using Bison to the best of their abilities. But doesn’t it say something that it’s so shocking when stuff like that happens? I dunno. I’ve hit a rut lately that I’m having trouble getting out of.

Also, I’d like to let out a lot of frustration and say that Bison’s special moves have some of the worst priority in the entire game.

Nononononono. You want to know what bad priority is go try out Juri’s pinwheel. It gets stuffed dope easy, even ex.

HS: Uh yeah, it’d be a great anti-air if it had a LITTLE bit of pursuit property. Hell, moving slightly in the air (or even being stuck in a 20-30 frame focus attack animation that slightly shifts the body over) causes the move to whiff.

yeah headstomp sucks if you don’t know the right situations to use it. For me it’s about reads and intuition.

*DR: Yeah, great 80 frame overhead that doesn’t even reach all the way to the floor. So someone who’s in crouch block just has to get lower to the ground to avoid even blocking the move. *

I just use this to build meter,wakeup mix up or do empty ones to get in my opponent’s face. I might use it when I have the lead and im turtiling, if i got in my opponents head they may start to get desperate and do risky stuff trying to get in, only to mispace and eat a fist of purple shit.

SK: Yeah it’s a great low-crusher except for the fact that it gets stuffed by a ton of low moves.

it wont get stuffed if you space it right, or hit confirm into it obsly. If u dont want to hit confirm then make sure u stay the hell out of your opponent’s attack ranges. SK launches you forward so again space it.*

PC: What good is an armor breaker if it’s too slow to function as one? *

agreed, most of the psycho crusher variants have limited uses

Ex-PC: What good is an anti-fireball move if it flat out loses to a normal high tiger shot? Similarly, what good is a great wall of fire / horizontal DP if it gets stuffed by a feather touching the top of it? Like seriously?

more like how does chun li’s jab stuff it lol

1619

I like how people want their special move to be perfect
gdlk priority + fast + safe

Learning to play means you must understand your flaws and avoid them.

Just an example
Psycho Crusher’s Armor Break prevents people from Focusing/Countering crossup Psychos

1620

Crossup walldive. It’s a perfectly timed EX walldive that crosses up.
