The one thing I really dislike about this Bison - aside from Scissors being motion which screws with years of muscle memory - is that his Head Press doesn't work properly. Horizontal range is too low, the jump is slow, and being force to dive straight down before attacking makes it even slower. I used to use Head Press as part of my mid-range pressure but now it just gets me killed because it has no horizontal reach. Pretty much just use Devil Reverse only.
That was weird to me too, but stomp is designed to be more of an oki tool than a neutral one in this game. It would be busted otherwise with how you can get crossups with it too.
Bison is good but people are reaching with top tier because of bicycle kick. He can be mauled by quite a few characters and has no way out of the corner. I definitely put him in high A tier. The point is thank god he's strong because it changes the meta of seeing just Ken's and Luke. That was really pathetic to see for a whole year straight.
All I can say is that, as a Ryu main, everytime I face a Bison it feels I gotta be 3 times as good just to win. Bison has like 4 moves that allow him to skip neutral in the most bull**** of ways...
Then you arent playing Ryu correctly if you trying 3 times as hard. Work on your neutral, and know your frame data. There is a lot of opportunities for Ryu in that match, and its Bison who is trying hard because everything Bison can initiate with can easily get shut down by a Ryu thats ready. Stop letting Bisons steal turns, become more aggressive.
Bison feels like the team testing "what if we make someone without reversal super strong" especially since they have a boss character to ease the news of broken dlc character and being a 2step.
Old school costume is sick dude. I hope costume 3 has elements of both of the costumes. Like parts of his sleeve is blown off so you can see his arm and face light up with psycho power better than you can in the old school version.
Scissors not being charge has to be thanks to modern schemes, since he has crusher, can't have 2 charges on the same direction, but different punch\kick.
I don't know why people continue to care so much about tiers to argue with people. Clearly nobody has a definitive answer. Top players were saying Ryu was top 5 and we all know objectively that's not true. There are too many variables at play-- online/offline, tournament viable, modern/classic, online stats, tournament stats, evolving meta. There is no definitive answer and also some of these pro players really don't know what they're talking about. No reason to argue over this, healthy discussions are where it's at.
@@plannedtuna8293 There was a tier list talk video recently and a couple of players mentioned him being there. Either big bird or angry bird I forget which one but it was more than one. Mc mura even made a tier list effectively putting him there or close to it.

1,000,000% agree with Brian. He was my fastest road to Master character so far, and his offense and rush down and set play is probably top 5 but his defense is bottom 5. He gets completely mauled lol
Top 5 are Rashid, Cammy, Ed, Ken, Akuma. Because they have fast buttons that can interrupt, dp, and fast walk speed to pressure/shimmy. They also all have a gimmick they can use to mix
@@lordanzu8763Gief gets buffed and people pretend he's top 5 lol, they clearly didn't watch Itazan fight that Jamie at Evo or see Oil King do nothing but backdash fireball to beat him. His matchup spread is still just as bad as it was before the patch it's just that they overtuned his drive chip damage so people wanna focus on Gief and pretend like other characters (M.Bison and Ken) aren't doing the same thing except they have a lot more tools than Gief. Also yeah trying to say Ken and Akuma should be bumped out of top 5 for GIEF is outrageous lol, Bison Ken and Akuma are everywhere. People are just pretending Gief is top tier so he gets gutted, Japan always had Gief in top 5 throughout the entirety of SFV even though nobody played him and he was obviously very weak.
I’m a diamond with ryu and akuma, and I run into bison time to time and he’s not to hard to deal with if you understand how he works. Once he gets knocked down he’s at a big disadvantage, and if he doesn’t have mine planted he’s cautious as hell. Once he gets the kind it’s a different game, but with the downsides to him I feel he’s fair overall. Like Aki is strong before the poison and just becomes scarier, bison has to get that line to get scary
When Bison’s on a roll, he is snowballing. He’a super strong with a simple two-step game plan and plus frames. But his simplicity and slower anti-air can make him inconsistent in some MUs.
This bison is a mix of sf4, sf5, and CVS2. Having an overhead really made his mix-up game dangerous. In my opinion, this is the second best version after CVS2
Bison's been my main in every game he's been in since SF2:CE. He's my boy, good or bad. I even played him in Alpha 3 and the VS games including SVC where he's really not that good. I'm glad he's back, I'm glad he's fun and looks cool. I honestly don't mind the Costume 2 cos I love the goofy villain look, that's why I liked him to start with tbh.
As someone who mained him in V, that cHP is **SO** much better as an anti-air that I'm feeling invincible. lmao I'm honestly having less sucess with Psycho Crusher as an anti-air than just using that button or Drive Rush cHP to beat neutral jumps. PC gets stuffed all the time.
Honestly, I finally got to gold 2 because of Bison. I understand his weaknesses, but any character that can shut down the fireball drive rush meta is good in my opinion.
We all admitted and discussed the fact that Luke at the end of SFV was intentionally busted to sell something. The case is the same here, (though less egregiously) but so few people can admit it. Bison is intentionally overtuned to sell a character pack of which he is the only character available, and half the pack comes out next year. There has to be a reward for buying the character pack now. That reward is an overturned fan favorite, with a horse and movie references. The dude is a mishmash of nerfed things or tools from nerfed characters. He has Deejay's drive rush, Honda's headbutt, Zangief's nerfed medium kick, and on and on. Mine > Psycho Crusher is literally Condor Wind > Condor Spire, but with less investment required in the neutral, and more reward on hit.
I'm around diamond ranked but i try to play sets rather than ranked. Bison I don't think is every other match as much as when he was released but I think in higher ranks you may see him more. Super strong character , I try not to play tilted against him because he's very obnoxious but he's got a really strong kit
@@WindyCityNick i agree i wasnt playing to many kens at the time now that they coming back ken is hella broken i think ed might be top 5 as well hes so cheap
I learnt to stop trusting Brian F a year ago, when he used to say; and to paraphrase, 'people are going in on JP, but people are REALLY silent about Guile'. Not only was he deflecting attacks regarding his main, but attacking Guile, who's worst matchup is/was, JP.
I don't hate the guy or anything he seems cool but he is wild when it comes to downplaying his main. Probably the worst I've seen from any of the more known SF content creators. Back when every tourney had a million JPs he was trying to convince us all JP wasn't OD lmao.
Lol today i put the controller down in the 3rd match. I just got bored of trying to get out of it. If i get plus to death or have to chase Luke across the screen or have to play is Ken gonna high or low. Controller down 😂
This comment is not about game balance, but I just find it lame that we got Bison this early. If they wanted to bring him back that's cool but at least wait some more. We're also getting 2 SNK characters this year lol. There's some far cooler characters that could've came back instead. I want the real big bad, Gill, back again. Isn't SF6 supposed to be a continuation of SF3?
Bison/Akuma make me wonder why Season 2 implemented damage scalling on the vanilla cast (except the likes of Marissa or Gief). When the guest final boss is more cringe than the current final boss... Houston, we have a problem.
Guess the topic of top one is still debatable but a character with no bad match ups, safe reads, anti zoning, one of the best offense and neutral, drains the opponent's meter like a vacuum and the highest damage is a top 5 characteristic. The simple fact that he has no bad match ups is so huge and his safe and high damage gameplay with strong buttons is literally a quality that made Luke top 1 last season. Sure his defence is lacking which does indeed blurrs his position in top 1 but top 5 is in the bag.
The 5 most represented characters in evo top 48 are: Ed M. Bison Cammy Rashid Ken Most people would agree on most of these being top 5. Guile, Zangief, and Akuma are few and far between despite what people think of them
LOL Everyone is shocked that the character that is meant to sell Season 2 passes is strong. Why won't anyone talk about the capitalist balancing of the game? ED and AKI were magically buffed to high tier when Capcom really need to sell Season 1 passes along with Akuma. It's so blatantly obvious. Fuck these new fighting games. Its like when First person shooters turned fully into capitalist shit when when PUBG and Fortnite came out.
People starting to realize that Zangief is the most fun character to play. The problem with Bison is the fucking spammers. No One pays attention to the defense and plays carefully.
6 Bipson is nothing like 5 tbf. I'm a Bison main since forever but 5 bison was so ezbake oven to play with it made me not even want to play him for more than an hr. Most boring incarnation
Bison got top 5 at evo on a malfunctioning controller. He's easy top 3 and since he requires the IQ of curdled cheese to play he's functionally top 1 for the vast majority of the player base.
There is nobody in SF6 that requires a high iq to play at the highest level. No character is winning at the highest level of play because of their difficulty the only thing that matters for a character's results is the overall strength of the character.
@@Gleapgoogleplusisgone Literally unless you are doing momochi dream combos consistently with Ed you don't have a right to complain that anybody you're playing with is too hard lmao

What characters in this game have a gameplan that requires more IQ than other characters then?
@@ryojin7282 That's understandable. I also have MUs I consider annoying. It just irks me when that leads to people calling for nerfs when there are counterstrategies and system mechanics already in place to help them beat these characters. If they're fundamentally broken, then yes, nerf them. Otherwise, it's a skill issue. 😂
Scissors is good. But its not super safe. The reason pro players dont use it/spam it is because of how easy it is to punish, and the most used characters right now, Cammy, Akuma, Ed, can punish it for free and for a character with little to no defense, he cant afford to be getting punished for free.
Bison clearly broken. But obviously that was an intentional dlc decision. They'll release the real Bison that they've been saving since before launch when they release Terry. Then Terry will probably be the broken char. Gotta get those dlc sales.
Nah I think Terry safely lands in A tier if he plays like he always does. And I hope Akuma and Bison is the last of the busted DLC before Sagat. Cuz I know he bout to be busted.
@@PoojaMan64those two characters also needed time to develop, people were too quick to say they were bad! Aki got insane buffs, Ed pretty much stayed the same but Momochi helped everyone figure out the character at an optimal level, it was always very obvious that a lot of people didn't have Ed matchup experience at EVO lol. I hope they release more characters like Sim, Aki, Ed and Rashid... it's very satisfying actually having to learn so many things for different matchups instead of having the exact same game plan for everything.
The persepective from someone who is plainly "just not that bad" at the game (me), sitting in diamond... is that Bison is fucking unfair and boring to play against. Too many stuff from the game's main mechanics force you to play the way bison likes to play... and if you ever whiff his wombo combo takes simply too much life. He seems like a very low risk high reward character that wants to scramble (touch everything) in case he gets to be ahead you will lose at least a third of your life while he carries you half a screen in to the border to start betting what comes next. VERY BORING TO PLAY AGAINST and for that I only play Bo1s against Bisons. Now, you may call me "just bad" "get good" and It would be fair, but I reallllllly fucking hate Bison.
I don't think he's TOO strong, but definitely boring to play against, he's like a reverse guile, downbacks all game doing hard to punish things except he moves forwards instead of backwards, to me the problem is if he messes up his scissor kicks spacing, the best punish you can get is off a jab and he will be so far that it will be a jab into a special at best, you just have to keep waiting for him to mess up or to be in the corner before you're allowed to play against him, ex psycho crusher is also WAYYYY too good, now THAT is a broken move in my opinion.
Even if they did add the horse into the actual gameplay, there's no way it can compare to the likes of Johnny Joestar, Gyro Zeppeli and Diego Brando. JoJo horsies are GODLIKE.
Bison has the best offense of the game, but he has the worst defense as well, this is why he is not an S tier character. Its not possible to be consistent enough.
@@Gleapgoogleplusisgone no bro, his lvl 1 super is slow enough to be baited by meaty jab. His lvl 2 is the same. Only lvl 3 is true reversal. Marisa, Dhalsim and Zangief at least have a lvl 2 that its true reversal.
@@vini1249 his level 1 super is 8 frames faster than Zangiefs level 2 and Dhalsims level 2 loses to all meaty low attacks. It's not even close his defensive options are vastly better than multiple characters. It took me one day of play to get him to master and zero times was I meaningfully held back by his defensive options. Sure meaty jab can in theory bait it but again heavy sweep beats Dhalsims level 2 even lol and meaty mediums beat Giefs 2 on some characters. Marisa is just straight up worse bison. He can do everything she can do better other than if she blows twice his super bar her 2 is a frame faster than bisons 1.
@@Gleapgoogleplusisgone you are comparing with low tier characters, and this speak for its own. Get Master is not difficult with anyone if you know how to play fundamentals. In a competitive lvl, his defense is bad, he only has lvl 3 as a true reversal, so he is not comparable with top tier characters
Brian F is a Bison main so of course he is going to downplay him. Meanwhile he considers Chun Li S tier. Dude is a joke. I stopped taking that dude seriously a long time ago.

@@ryojin7282That's true. I know he isn't the worst matchup but he is annoying
He is really annoying tho
@@ryojin7282 That's understandable. I also have MUs I consider annoying. It just irks me when that leads to people calling for nerfs when there are counterstrategies and system mechanics already in place to help them beat these characters.
If they're fundamentally broken, then yes, nerf them. Otherwise, it's a skill issue. 😂
@@egocentricblack3278 He is sometimes. It's really annoying to get frame trapped by his Medium normals. 😅
Brain_F doesn't think he's top 5 because Ed has a winning matchup against him!
Scissors is good. But its not super safe. The reason pro players dont use it/spam it is because of how easy it is to punish, and the most used characters right now, Cammy, Akuma, Ed, can punish it for free and for a character with little to no defense, he cant afford to be getting punished for free.
The guy that downplayed JP and Ed is now downplaying Bison.
Seems about right.
Bison is s tier.
@BajanCreation Yes! Please, who are the 6 strongest characters in the first season for you??
So...? How does he knows? He is not even a top player to begin with. How he has a credible opinion?
Yea I hate the og costume 13:14
All I’m seeing is Lidias. Lidias everywhere
Bison clearly broken. But obviously that was an intentional dlc decision. They'll release the real Bison that they've been saving since before launch when they release Terry. Then Terry will probably be the broken char. Gotta get those dlc sales.
It's been happening for more than a decade, but people still act shocked whenever overturned DLC characters are released.
Aki and Ed were both mid tier on release
Nah I think Terry safely lands in A tier if he plays like he always does. And I hope Akuma and Bison is the last of the busted DLC before Sagat. Cuz I know he bout to be busted.
@@PoojaMan64those two characters also needed time to develop, people were too quick to say they were bad! Aki got insane buffs, Ed pretty much stayed the same but Momochi helped everyone figure out the character at an optimal level, it was always very obvious that a lot of people didn't have Ed matchup experience at EVO lol.
I hope they release more characters like Sim, Aki, Ed and Rashid... it's very satisfying actually having to learn so many things for different matchups instead of having the exact same game plan for everything.
He is top tier imo.
Bison is shit. What can he do. His heavy punch is slow. And he cant od out of pressure
The persepective from someone who is plainly "just not that bad" at the game (me), sitting in diamond... is that Bison is fucking unfair and boring to play against.
Too many stuff from the game's main mechanics force you to play the way bison likes to play... and if you ever whiff his wombo combo takes simply too much life.
He seems like a very low risk high reward character that wants to scramble (touch everything) in case he gets to be ahead you will lose at least a third of your life while he carries you half a screen in to the border to start betting what comes next.
VERY BORING TO PLAY AGAINST and for that I only play Bo1s against Bisons.
Now, you may call me "just bad" "get good" and It would be fair, but I reallllllly fucking hate Bison.
I don't think he's TOO strong, but definitely boring to play against, he's like a reverse guile, downbacks all game doing hard to punish things except he moves forwards instead of backwards, to me the problem is if he messes up his scissor kicks spacing, the best punish you can get is off a jab and he will be so far that it will be a jab into a special at best, you just have to keep waiting for him to mess up or to be in the corner before you're allowed to play against him, ex psycho crusher is also WAYYYY too good, now THAT is a broken move in my opinion.
I remember when Sajam said he was the best character in the game. He WILL denied this but there's video proof he said this.
Show me the clip. Pretty sure he said he is maybe the best. Maybe does not mean is.
Even if they did add the horse into the actual gameplay, there's no way it can compare to the likes of Johnny Joestar, Gyro Zeppeli and Diego Brando. JoJo horsies are GODLIKE.
Akuma bottom 5
di into sthp isnt great cause its super cancellable
Bison has the best offense of the game, but he has the worst defense as well, this is why he is not an S tier character.
Its not possible to be consistent enough.
But he doesn't have the worst defense his level 1 super alone gives him a better defensive option than Zangief Dhalsim Marisa etc
@@Gleapgoogleplusisgone no bro, his lvl 1 super is slow enough to be baited by meaty jab. His lvl 2 is the same. Only lvl 3 is true reversal.
Marisa, Dhalsim and Zangief at least have a lvl 2 that its true reversal.
@@vini1249 his level 1 super is 8 frames faster than Zangiefs level 2 and Dhalsims level 2 loses to all meaty low attacks.
It's not even close his defensive options are vastly better than multiple characters.
It took me one day of play to get him to master and zero times was I meaningfully held back by his defensive options. Sure meaty jab can in theory bait it but again heavy sweep beats Dhalsims level 2 even lol and meaty mediums beat Giefs 2 on some characters.
Marisa is just straight up worse bison. He can do everything she can do better other than if she blows twice his super bar her 2 is a frame faster than bisons 1.
@@Gleapgoogleplusisgone you are comparing with low tier characters, and this speak for its own.
Get Master is not difficult with anyone if you know how to play fundamentals. In a competitive lvl, his defense is bad, he only has lvl 3 as a true reversal, so he is not comparable with top tier characters
@@Gleapgoogleplusisgone dont bother the Bison downplay army isnt gonna listen
Top 5 characters Rashid, guile, bison, Ryu, Ken in that order
Replace bison with akuma
Akuma is 6th for me he isn’t as bad as bison or bison is 6th
But I feel Ryu and Ken are better then akuma
Trump 2024
Brian F is a Bison main so of course he is going to downplay him. Meanwhile he considers Chun Li S tier. Dude is a joke. I stopped taking that dude seriously a long time ago.
Pretty sure he's playing Ed still
Dawg 😂 it ain't that deep, why tf yall so offended, is it that hard to believe there's people with other opinion and experiences?
Damn calm down, it’s a video game 😭
@@KALSKingdom fr, buddy got too excited on his keyboard
@@theunamedpotatoBro is talking like Brian slept with his wife
Who is brian f? Why not ask me or the bum down the street
BrianF has been a strong player for many years in SFV. He consistently top 8s majors.
Has to be trolling. Has to. No one is this dumb.
