Today is M. Bison day! As you would expect I was up early and dumped some hours into the lad, and now with that combined with my time from the Summer Game Fest I have a much more complete idea of the character and he's even stronger than my initial impressions! I don't think he's top tier or nothing, but he has a clearly defined gameplan (AGGRESSION) great walkspeed, huge buttons, does what Honda got nerfed, better than Honda did it before it got nerfed and just tons of stuff! Lots in the vid so give it a good explore, like if ya liked it and let me know what you think!
I do think some of the Honda differences are type of gameplan. Bison needs to be close enough to get his setup in place. Honda's headbutt knocking down gives him time to setup spirit. And it really does seem like the downsides to Bison's scissors on block are that, if you're spacing it right, sure you're mostly safe, but he still has to reset his pressure game. And anything that breaks up his pressure is really bad for him. Like you said, his defense isn't terrible, but based on normals and tools, once he's out of his pressure game, he has to get even more defensive than Honda. But we'll see how it pans out over time. I was immediately joking around about how his gameplan feels like a weird mix of Honda and Marisa!
Bison literally spared your World Tour character because the horse took a liking to you. He clearly values that horse enough to braid its hair himself.
(read as overly dramatic as possible) Us grappler mains are a truly abused people. Bullied in the corner and at distance by zoners in game, then bullied by the devs in the patch notes and complainers online irl. Roofle is our only friend!
This week on the channel is basically gonna be Bison week, so expect a LOT MORE! Stay tuned over the next few days, cause not only are we gonna do stuff like combos and a big guide like you'd expect, but also dig into the lore and the story of whats going on cause there's a fair bit!
I’m just constantly in shock at the damage levels in sf6. Am I crazy to think it should be nerfed again across the board? Wouldn’t more interactions in a round reveal the better player in general…..I know time played increases but is that so bad, not like we are pumping quarters at the arcade lol.
Akuma's 5HK is -13 if blocked by a crouching opponent, and a free counter hit punish into imagination. It can also be called out with a Drive Impact. The move has more total frames than a complete Drive Impact. Seems like a pretty fair trade for being +3.
rooflemonger,...or IrishOrangutan apparently,...was always fast, now he's just outrunning himself. We get the Elena video before Capcom releases the trailer, I tell you... ^^
His Devil's Rise is everything I was hoping it would be. It's easy to get plus frames off of it, even full screen (no OD needed) it's easy to get left/right mix, and the OD knee is so satisfying to land
@@KingJinzo2125 Right? I play a ton of characters and I'll tell you going from playing Bison to playing Juri or Jamie is a wild experience. It's like easy mode neutral vs hard mode neutral. Same with footsies really. Because it's Juri "I need to carefully choose my buttons" vs Bison "scissor kicks go brrr" But I really hope they don't nerf it because I'm having a blast.
The thing about the kick is checking the bisons spacing it still has to be positioned for safe spacing in a way like they’re going for the charge or at mid spacing. So when they’re walking back you could still see they’re setting up a safe spaced scissor kick
Dude the Zangief nerf was uncalled for. Its also way too early to even know if zangief is a problem. This reeks of the devs needing to get off of twitter. Twitter skews too negative to take good feedback from there nowadays.
@@ultraheaven8968 one veteran player did well at one tournament and people whined and they nerfed it less then a month after they buffed it meanwhile Akuma sthp is one of the biggest bullshit normals ive ever seen in a modern SF game can rock all day, Lukes CMP terrorized the entire game for an entire year without nerfs and they barely touched it in the patches
Thank you for flying the Honda flag 😭. I am trying to spread Sumo across all local tournaments to give him some representation among a sea of shotos. Doskoi!
4:23 So not only is s-HP +1 on block up close, but if you notice here HE'S +2 DEPENDING ON WHERE IT HITS. That's some plus frame privilege right there. Us Ed mains could only wish for a plus-on-block normal. (s-HK doesn't count and we all know it)
Bison's EX crusher can destroy EVERY PROJECTILE SUPER IN THE GAME, including Ed's and Rashid's Level 2. I fkd around and found out apparently. Never randomly throw those out against a Bison with some meter left, trust me!
really surprised that they didn't make scissors way more negative on block and giving it a different use in gameplay strategy after changing it to be a motion. now it's a move designed around being a charge that isn't gated behind a charge and you can just throw out instantly, kinda crazy.
Thank you for standing up for the Honda mains. It's looking kinda bleak for us this season. Does Psycho Crusher stop when it's jumped over by the opposing character? Like the way they changed headbut to do? That would be the nail in the coffin for me.
Luke, Ken, JP, Cammy, Guile, and DJ get 365 days of top tier tools and poor Gief gets a buffed from bottom middle tier to top middle tier for only 35 days then nerf SPD comes out of nowhere...Why are grapplers so disliked? I think it because people hate making one mistake and boom 30%+ goes their life bar. They never consider what it takes for the grappler to get in, to even do that.
I'll stick with the character only because of the animations and design. He's like a creepy Magneto, the horse stance looks sick, and the throw game, when you throw back and he does like a swipe kick into a chest kick that then throws you away is soooooooo cool.
I hope that this is man is a martial artist than the final boss dictator because I don’t want JP to be wasted. Plus I was expecting that bison will lose his memory for the entire game but I guess that he has his memory back
Well jp was shown as a subordinate of bison in bison’s world tour cutscene so I think it’s too late for him to be saved. I wish they would’ve kept the two somewhat separate from one another but still being aware of each other’s presence
@@KingJinzo2125 the separate part sounds like bison and Seth scenario, we need something new in my opinion. Plus JP becoming a financial for shadaloo again instead of a new dictator sounds like we went to cycle and it would’ve been better to have a better story like Luke Jamie and Kim are making a new generation
I'm pleasantly surprised how much I like Bison just from training and running through arcade mode. I was going to play him for a while anyway because he's cool, but I wasn't sure if he'd be a character I'd want to stick with long-term. Sometimes you get the initial badass character/hot waifu hype and you end up not vibing with how they play. Fortunately, Bison's got the kind of belligerent stuff I can dig.
2 hours after bison is released almost everyone I played knew how to his combos. It extremely frustrating playing game knowing that you can go to master in one try.
I played with him for an hour with my rental and I was able to place as Diamond 5 after my 10 matches. He can bait DPs... he is strong, but few really understand what to do with him. All the players I played were having no clues and that is including all skill levels.
I have the vid a 👍🏽 because I appreciate the channel but I hate these technical vids of Street Fighter coming from everywhere. They are informative and great for all the online competitors but breaking the game down to science and the jargon in the analysis just kills the fun for me but I'm old and will always prefer the old school way we're we just learned by playing blissfully ignorant to knowing about frames plus and negative on block reversal nerfed and buffed big buttons and hurt boxes etc just hey tried this it works doesn't work here or against this character so good don't do that here coz you could take lots of damage this move could get me out of a tight spot. Ahh. . back in the day, a more innocent time 😊 however you do it enjoy the fight guys 👍🏽
Its crazy to think Bison and Balrogs names got swapped all because of a lawsuit from Mike Tyson. Now we'd never be able to accept him having any other name 😅
I hate to say it, but I don't think his fancy classic outfit translated well into this art style. It looks kind of silly. That being said, he looks like he'll be a fun character to have in the game.
I'll wait to see how the meta shakes out more, but I don't get why Akuma and Bison have so much + frames. Most characters pre-dlc had like, 1 or 2 barely plus moves. I think without DR the only plus move juri has is stMP and Cammy has like, crHP. And they're both great characters with only +1. The new characters are getting crazy plus frames off normals?? I dont get it!
I'm shocked that Capcom would release the first character of the Season 2 as automatic top tier. More late stage capitalist BS. Fighting games are just gonna get worse like this. Hey kids buy Premium Honda!! get that dopamine hit before we nerf him!
This makes sense. Who should be stronger: a ridiculous fat guy that nobody plays or the badass main villain of the series? Sorry but it's a no-brainer.
@@cosmic5665you must need some attention if you watched the video he was talking about nerfs that Honda had got that bison has that are like buffed Honda moves
