SF6 Combo Notation Guide
Notation Meaning
> Cancel the previous move to the following move.
e.g. Normal into Special (2MK > 236P) or Special into Super (623P > 236236K)
~ Chain/Cancel the previous move into a followup.
e.g. Luke's target combo (LP~MP~HP) or Rising Uppercut into Slam Dunk (623PP~PP)
, Link the previous move to the following move.
e.g. 5MP, 2MP (requires manual timing)
An example with Ken that uses all three "connecting" symbols:
2LP, 5MP~HP > 623P > 236236P
2LP links into 5MP; 5MP chains into HP Target Combo; HP cancels into Shoryuken which cancels into Lv.3 Super
j.X Jumping action; for Neutral Jump, use 8j.X
e.g. Kimberly j.2MP (Elbow Drop) or Ryu j.214K (Aerial Tatsumaki Senpukyaku)
P or K Any Punch or Any Kick (when button strength does not matter)
PP or KK represents any two punches/kicks.
X/Y Do either X move or Y move.
e.g. end a combo with 214K/623P
[X] Hold the button input
e.g. Luke 214[LP] = charged LP Flash Knuckle
dl.X Briefly delay the action
e.g. Ken 236HK~dl.6LK (Jinrai Loop starter)
AA Anti-air; hit the opponent while they're mid-air.
May cause a different juggle state compared to a grounded opponent.
Y xN
{Y} xN		 Repeat 'Y' input 'N' number of times.
A sequence of multiple inputs will be bundled into "{}".
e.g. 5LP x3 (5LP, 5LP, 5LP) or {2HP > Drive Rush} x3
Y > DR Button Y cancelled into Drive Rush (3-bar version)
e.g. 5HP > DR
DR~Y Drive Rush into Button Y (cancel the dash frames early into a followup attack)
This can be done from the 1-bar or 3-bar versions of Drive Rush
e.g. 236HP Launch, DR~5LP
An example for Ryu using both Drive Rush notations:
2MK > DR~5HP (cancel 2MK into Drive Rush, then immediately use 5HP during dash animation)

Starter Combos

Light confirms
Very Easy


2LP/2LK > 2LP > 5LP > 236LK
2LP > 2LK > 5LP > 236LK/214PP
2LP/2LK > 2LP, 5LK > 214LP

2LP is a 4 frame light button with low pushback that can begin a chain hitconfirm. 2LK is a frame slower with more pushback, but hits low for a better chance at opening up the opponent's defense. 5LK cannot be chained into, but has enough speed/range to link reliably in most hitconfirm routes.

The specific chain routes listed above are generally the best in terms of consistency on hit and block. Alternate strings like 2LK > 2LK > 5LP have more pushback and larger gap on block that will trade if the opponent mashes a 4f button. Note that an attempted link to 5LK can be interrupted by the opponent on block, making it less suitable in pressure strings.

Ending with Light Double Knee Press (236LK) will leave the opponent standing and M. Bison at +2 frame advantage, in perfect range for a strike/throw mixup. This is the most consistent ender, and is the only meterless ender that reaches after chaining 3 LPs together.

Ending with 214LP grants a knockdown that plants a Psycho Mine on the opponent. Linking into 5LK is the only way to achieve this from a 3-light hitconfirm, but 5LP/2LP can combo with 2 lights at close range. 214PP also works consistently from any canceled light, giving better cancel options and midscreen oki for 2 Drive bars.

Any Counter-hit Double Knee Press can combo into lights unless spaced too far out. For consistency, end with 5LK > 214LP.

5MP starter
Easy


5MP, 2MP > 214MP
5MP, 2MP > [4]6MP
5MP, 2MP > 236MK
5MP > 214HP

This is M. Bison's basic combo using his 5MP as a starter. Useful after 2MK > Drive Rush starters while still allowing strong pressure if blocked.

Ending with Medium Psycho Mine (214MP) plants a mine, but gives fairly weak/expensive midscreen follow-up pressure like meaty OD Psycho Crusher or a max range Drive Rush button.

Ending with Medium Psycho Crusher ([4]6MP) gives corner carry, a potential SA3 cancel for damage, and meterless midscreen oki with a forward dash (+2). The charge timing is somewhat strict unless you start holding back before the initial 5MP.

Ending with Medium Double Knee Press (236MK) leaves the opponent standing at +3 for a strike/throw mixup, but loses the corner carry and setup potential of other routes.

2MK can replace 5MP into 2MP, although it deals less damage. It is useful for poking, and can be a consistent way of planting bomb if the opponent is trying to make space.

5MP is the only medium cancel that combos directly into HP Backfist, if you would prefer its stronger oki or the juggle from a Psycho Mine detonation.


4HK starter
Easy


PC/PDR~4HK, 5MP, 2MP ...
CH 4HK, 2MP > 214PP > Super Art 2
4HK > 214HP
4HK, 2LP, 2LP > 214LP
CH+PDR~4HK, 4HK/2HP > 214HP or [4]6HP > Super Art 3

Evil Knee is one of Bison's best normals as it gives him easy access to plus frames on block without Drive Rush. On Drive Rush and Punish Counter, this move combos into many of Bison's other good starters. This is very convenient due to its speed, allowing him to Drive Rush after the opponent when hit with a throw or Backfist Combo.

On regular Counterhit, Bison can only combo into Crouching Medium Punch, which locks him off of decent damaging combos with no Drive Gauge usage that set up Backfist Combo.
In the event that Bison hits this move without hitting a Punish Counter or regular Counter Hit, which most likely happens if Bison is catching the opponent jumping, Bison can combo into lights and set up a light bomb OKI situation. As this is most likely to happen in the corner, this isn't bad for Bison as he can set up OKI right away.

Bison's simple Counter Hit combo route into Super Art 2 deals 4620 damage, which is incredible for being counterhit and costing such a little amount of Drive Gauge. Use this combo if your opponent likes to mash on wakeup. Due Bison cancelling out of OD Backfist Combo, he can choose if the Super Art 2 side swaps or not.

On Counter Hit and Drive Rush, Bison can combo into another Evil Knee, or in the corner or during closer setups, Crouching Heavy Punch, the latter of which deals slightly more damage. This combo allows Bison to get back charge for a Psycho Crusher to potentially end the round meterless or combo into Super Art 3.

OD 236KK Extensions
Easy


5MP, 2MP > 236KK, 214HP

5MP, 2MP > 236KK, 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3
5MP, 2MP > 236KK, [4]6MP > Super Art 3
5MP, 2MP > 236KK, PDR~5MP~6HP > 214LP

5MP, 2MP > 236KK, PDR~2HP > 214HP

Standard routing with an OD Double Knee Press extension, ending with a Heavy Psycho Mine application. Heavy Psycho Mine gives M. Bison some of his best oki, allowing him to Drive Rush in with the normal of his choice, like an auto-timed meaty 5HP (+7 oB) or delayed 5MP/4HK.
Comboing into DR 5MP allows for impressive screen travel, and with a Super Art 2 ender, allows Bison to send the opponent from corner to corner.

  • Can end with 5HP > SA1/2/3 instead of Psycho Mine if damage is preferred.
  • 2MK can replace 5MP, 2MP in a combo, but it deals MUCH less damage overall.

Corner OD 236KK Extension
Easy


5MP, 2MP > 236KK, 6HP (bounce), 214LP / 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3

Decent damage, knockdown, oki and applies a Psycho Mine.

Can end with 5HP > SA1/2/3 instead of Psycho Mine if damage is preferred.

Corner OD 236KK Extension
Medium Hard


5MP, 2MP > 236KK, DR~5MP~6HP, 214PP > Super Art 2/3

5MP, 2MP~DRC~4HK, 5MP, 2MP > 236KK, 214HP / 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3

5MP, 2MP~DRC~4HK, 5MP, 2MP > 236KK, DR~5MP~6HP, 214LP / [4]6LP > Super Art 3

Bison's main meter dumps off of his medium punches. Use different combo in different scenarios, such as your Drive gauge, screen position, bomb placement, or opponent's low health. During the DR~5MP~6HP combos, 214MP doesn't combo by a single frame, but [4]6LP is one frame faster so it does.

  • The [4]6LP > Super Art 3 combo is Bison's highest damaging combo off of a medium punch and no bomb.
  • The 5HP > Super Art 1 combo will take the opponent from corner to corner.
  • These combos aren't entirely intended for planting bomb, but they can be used for placing the opponent in the corner with bomb.
  • Even if Bison doesn't burn himself out, using a DRC and finishing with 214HP doesn't leave Bison with enough Drive gauge for good oki unless it ends in the corner.
  • 2MK as a starter only works on Counter-hit or Punish Counter and deals MUCH less damage, which kind of defeats the point of cashing out.

Drive Impact

Drive Impact
Easy


PC~DI, walk/dash forward, 2HP > 214HP
PC~DI, walk/dash forward, 2HP > 236KK, 6HP (bounce), 3HK
PC~DI, walk/dash forward, 2HP > 236KK, 214HP
PC~DI, walk/dash forward, 2HP > 236KK, 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3
PC~DI, 2HP > [4]6HP > Super Art 3

Without OD Knee Press, M. Bison can apply HP Psycho Mine (214HP). With OD Knee Press, Bison has a few options for enders afterwards:

  • 3HK for oki without Drive Rush
  • 214HP for Psycho Mine application and Drive Rush oki
  • 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3 for increased damage

The 2HP > [4]6HP > Super Art 3 combo is slightly range dependent, but the opponent will fall into Bison eventually. This combo requires good timing and patience, but isn't difficult. Costs no extra drive gauge.

Drive Impact
Medium


PC~DI, j.HK, DR~5MP~6HP, 214LP / 214PP > Super Art 2/3

PC~DI, j.HK, 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3

PC~DI, j.HK, PDR~2HP > 214HP

This combo, with the exception of odd hurtbox interactions, works from any DI length, and is consistent amongst all of them. This is also a very useful meter dumping combo as, thanks to the 5MP~6HP target combo, Bison can end the combo with 214PP, which cancels into Super Art 2/3.
A simple j.HK, 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3 off Drive Impact is a very good way to gain space while not spending drive gauge.

Drive Impact
Easy


DI, 2HP > 214HP

DI, 2HP > 236KK, 6HP (bounce), 214MP

DI, 5MP~6HP > 214LP / 214PP > Super Art 2/3

After a corner DI wallsplat on hit or block. Similar to previous combos, use OD Knee Press (236KK) for extensions. Because the 236KK is connecting on a juggled opponent, the higher launch allows a 214MP ender instead of the usual 214LP. Applies Psycho Mine.
The 5MP~6HP into 214LP deals more damage, but at the cost of being less positive on hit compared to Bison's 214HP ender. How much this matters differs from player to player, as some might capitalise off of the 214LP version better, or have combos or set ups reliant on it. The 214PP into Super Art 2/3 is useful for cashing out in a scenario where someone may struggle to do so, specifically due to the juggle state of the opponent.


Punish Counters

5HP
Easy


PC~5HP, 5HK, 2MP > 214MP / 236MK
PC~5HP, 5HK, 2MP > 236KK, 214HP
PC~5HP, 5HK, 2MP > 236KK, DR~5MP~6HP, 214LP / [4]6LP
PC~5HP, DR~2MP, 5MP, 2MP > 214MP
PC~5HP, 2HP > 214HP

Depending on range, may need to remove 5HK and go straight to 2MP or 2MK. For meterless combo, link directly to MK Knee Press for standing oki or MP Psycho Mine to set up the bomb.

5HK
Easy


PC~5HK, Forward Dash, 2HP > 214HP
PC~5HK, Forward Dash, 2HP > 236KK, 214HP
PC~5HK, Forward Dash, 2HP > 236KK, 5HP > Super Art 1

PC 5HK will crumple the opponent. End with Heavy Psycho Mine for meterless bomb application. Extend with OD Knee Press + Heavy Psycho Mine or 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3 for damage.

5HK and Back Charge
Easy Medium


PC~5HK, 2HP > [4]6HP > Super Art 3

One of Bison's highest damaging combos that also costs no drive gauge. Bison also gains almost four bars of drive gauge. The only issue with this combo is that it requires Bison to get back charge. While doing this, the opponent will fall into Bison. While this combo isn't difficult, it does take good timing to do. This is Bison's best whiff punishing combo against DP's, super arts, and other generally punishable moves.
The combo is more leniant with a PDR as Bison will be closer to the opponent.

  • Your demise awaits!
  • YEHAHAHA
  • YOUR TIME ENDS HERE!!!
  • Begone

5HK and Down Charge
Medium


PC~5HK, [2]8KK~KK, 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3
PC~5HK, [2]8KK~KK, 214PP > Super Art 2
PC~5HK, [2]8KK~KK, PDR~2HP > 214HP,
PC~5HK, [2]8KK~KK, PDR~2HP > 236KK, [4]6HP or 6HP, 214LP
PC~5HK, [2]8KK~KK, PDR~2HP > 236KK, 6HP, 214PP or [4]6PP

Bison's best way to deal damage with minimal Drive Gauge. For comboing into Super Art 3, this combo deals more damage with standing heavy punch as it causes less scaling than medium Psycho Crusher. In exchange for two extra bars of Drive Gauge for OD Backfist Combo allows Super Art 2 to deal more damage and choose whether or not Bison wants to cross up the opponent. Cancelling from standing heavy punch forces him to cross up every time.
For another bar of Drive Gauge, you can combo into heavy bomb with decent damage and generally more than most Scissor Kick combos. This combo can be further extended by cancelling into OD scissors, allowing Bison to deal a lot of damage (potentially his highest damaging combo without bomb).

Heavy Scissors
Easy Medium


PC~236HK, 2MP~DRC~5MP, 2HP~DRC~5HK, 4HK > [4]6HP > Super Art 3

One of Bison's only good Drive Rush Cancel combos, and also Bison's best meter dumping punish against DP if the opponent has no bomb attached. Routing into a bomb planting combo with Heavy Scissor Kicks isn't the best idea since standing heavy kick combos have higher damage routes into any Backfist Combo strength.

Non-Timing Bomb Combos

5HK
Medium Hard


PC~5HK, [2]8KK~K, micro walk, [4]6PP, [2]8HK~KK, 6HP, 214PP > Super Art 2/3
PC~5HK, [2]8KK~K, [4]6PP, [2]8HK~KK, 6HP, 214LP
PC~5HK, [2]8KK~K, [4]6PP, must be cornered here, [2]8KK~KK, 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3
PC~5HK, [2]8KK~K, [4]6PP, 6HP, 214LP
PC~5HK, 2HP > [4]6PP, [4]6HP > Super Art 3
PC~5HK, 2HP > [4]6HP, 214LP / Super Art 1/3
5HK, 2MP > [4]6PP, 6HP, 214LP
PC~5HK dash up 2HP > 214HP, 214LP / 3HK

The first combo is THE meter dump combo you want to land as a Bison player. It does not rely on the timer as OD Pyscho Crusher automatically detonates it, but it does need a decent amount of time on the bomb so that it doesn't automatically detonate. It does require Bison to be at max drive and uses a micro walk.
After an OD Head Press after a OD Pyscho Crusher with bomb, Bison must use a non OD Shadow Rise to continue the combo, and is recommended to use heavy Shadow Rise to do so. In the corner, Bison can hit an OD Shadow Rise Head Press after OD Pyscho Crusher with bomb, but it means that Bison cannot land his overhead afterwards. That doesn't mean the combo is unsable as Bison can opt to go for a standing heavy punch into super instead, which is also an easier combo overall. OD Pyscho Crusher grants a lot of screen travel in the combo, hidden behind the short cinematic camera movement, which gives Bison more flexibility if he decides to do the easier combo. The 5HK into 2MP combo is primary if the 5HK wasn't a PC~and to avoid using too much drive gauge.

Do not directly cancel [4]6HP or [4]6HP, 214LP into Super Art 3 as it will deal less damage. Super Art 3 adds more scaling if it was canceled into from a special, but linking the Super Art 3 from [4]6HP avoids this due to the bomb detonation. The heavy Psycho Crusher also combo only works if the opponent falls into Bison during the crumple state. If the opponent isn't close enough to Bison to fall into him, dash forwards and do the heavy Backfist route instead. This combo costs no drive gauge and deals the most amount of damage out of any of his shimmy combos.

  • YOUR AMBITIONS DIE HERE!
  • (Does a flip)
  • Hmm
  • UNLIMITED PSYCHO CRUSHER
  • Word (he says worm, but this is funnier)

5MP
Medium


5MP, 2MP > [4]6PP, 214HP / PDR~5MP~6HP, 214MP
5MP, 2MP > [4]6PP, PDR~2HP > 214HP
PC~5MP, 5MP > 214HP, 214LP / PDR~5LK > 214HP / 3HK

Hold back as soon as, or even before the 5MP. You can delay the cancel into OD Pyscho Crusher a little more than you may initially think. Double stand medium punch isn't necessary, nor works without a form of counter hit.
For one extra bar off of 214HP, Bison can get psycho mine oki and much more screen travel, as well as not relying on the corner. 214HP into 214LP combos requires that Bison and the opponent reach the corner of the screen. Both these combos replant bomb.

4HK
Medium


4HK > [4]6HP, 214LP / Super Art 1
CH~DR~4HK, 4HK > [4]6HP Super Art 3
4HK > 214HP, 214LP / [4]6LP > Super Art 3 / PDR~5LK > 214HP

This combo hitting needs to be planned as you need to charge backwards before the Evil Knee connects. This can be done by doing a frame kill light, or crouch block and manually meaty timing the Evil Knee. On counter hit and with a drive rush starter, Bison can do two 4HK in a row, negating the need to charge before the combo.
Combos that link into 214LP or [4]6LP must have Bison and the opponent in the corner to work.

2MP
Medium


Corner only PC~2MP > [4]6HP, 214LP / Super Art 1
Corner only PC~2MP, 5MP > 214HP, 214LP / Super Art 1/3 / 214PP > Super Art 2/3
PC~2MP, 2MP > [4]6MP, dash, dash
PC~2MP, 5MP > 214HP, PDR~5LK > 214HP / 3HK
2MP > [4]6PP, [2]8HK~KK, 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3

These combos are especially useful against an opponent who drive reversals a lot on wakeup, aiming to remove the bomb and get out of the current scenario. Having a frame 6 medium punch is incredibly useful as Bison can punish drive reversals. There are many possible routes with many different rewards, such as:

  • Screen carrying with 3HK or [4]6HP enders, allowing for dash up oki.
  • Incredible screen carry and 214HP oki for just one drive bar.
  • Cashing in resources with flexible combo routes, taking into account your drive gauge and the opponent's health.
  • Bomb replanting combos.
  • Not having to worry about the time on the bomb.

2LK
Medium Easy


corner 2LK > 2LP > 214PP, 214LP / 3HK
2LK > 2LP > 214LP or 214PP, PDR~5LK > 236KK, 6HP, [4]6PP > Super Art 3
2LK > 2LP > 214PP > Super Art 2

Bison's most damaging combos from his crouching light kick. With bomb attached, Bison's lows become scarier as he can combo into OD Backfist Combo without the need to spend his drive gauge on drive rush cancels. The first combo listed only works in the corner as Bison pushes the opponent too far away to follow up after the OD Backfist Combo. The only way to link after hitting OD Backfist Combo with a bomb planted is to drive rush.
On the ground (mostly applicable in the corner), OD Backfist Combo with bomb gives Bison 15 frames to combo out of.

Heavy Scissors
Easy Medium


PC~236HK, 2MP > [4]6]PP, [2]8HK~KK, 6HP, 214PP > Super Art 2/3

Bison's highest damage on punish counter when not at max Drive Gauge and the opponent has bomb attached to them.

Intermediate
Medium


Meaty 4HK, 2MP > 236KK DR~5MP~6HP Bomb Detonate 6HP, 214MP

The bomb should detonate immediately after the first 6HP. The second 6HP is manually timed, and depending on your confidence, you can go for light, medium, or OD bomb. Bomb replant combo.

DR / PC~4HK, 5MP, 2MP > 236KK, 236HK Bomb Detonate [2]8K~K~P, 214LP / 214PP > Super Art 2/3

One of Bison's hardest combos, but a very important one. There are some rules to hitting [2]8K~K~P correctly:

  • Different versions of head press affect the combo in very small ways. Use different ones in different scenarios.
  • In many scenarios, immediately doing headpress after shadowrise will cause it to whiff.
  • The opponent bounces up off the ground when hit with head press.
  • Different scenarios cause the opponent to bounce off the ground differently, mainly the height off the ground before the bomb launches them.
  • Do not do somersault skull diver immediately as it won't reach the opponent bouncing.

PC~5HK, 2MP > 236KK, 236HK Bomb Detonate [2]8K~K~P, 214LP / 214PP > Super Art 2/3

One of Bison's hardest combo routes, but a very important and stylish one. With the standing heavy kick, the opponent will fly higher into the air. standing heavy kick is the more rewarding shimmy tool, but is more commital. standing medium punch is faster and safer with only a little less reward, but is easier to shimmy with. There are some rules to hitting [2]8K~K~P correctly:

  • Different versions of head press affect the combo in very small ways. Use different ones in different scenarios.
  • In many scenarios, immediately doing headpress after shadowrise will cause it to whiff.
  • The opponent bounces up off the ground when hit with head press.

DP Punish
Various


PC~5HP, 5HK, 2MP > 236MK Bomb Detonate 214HP/[4]6HP > Super Art 3
PC~5HP, 5HK, 2MP > 236MK Bomb Detonate 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3
PC~5HP, 5HK, 2MP > 236MK Bomb Detonate 6HP, 214MP
PC~5HP, 5HK, 2MP > 236MK Bomb Detonate [2]8K~K~P, 214LP / 214PP > Super Art 2/3
PC~5HP, 5HK, 2MP > 236MK Bomb Detonate j.MP~MP, 6HP, 214LP / 214PP > Super Art 2/3

The timing against the DP doesn't matter too much, but the timing can be adjusted slightly on the PC heavy punch to whatever you're comfortable with. If you wish to cash out all of your drive gauge in this exact scenario, refer to punish counter 5HK. j.MP~MP combos only work if the opponent is grounded when the bomb detonates. This is because the juggle limit is not met in these combos, compared to the 236KK combos where it is.

Shadow Rise
Various


PC~5HK, [2]8KK~KK, 3HK, bomb detonates, [2]8MK~K~P, 214LP
PC~5HK, [2]8KK~KK, 3HK, bomb detonates, [2]8MK~K~P, Super Art 1
PC~5HK, [2]8KK~KK, 5HP or 5HK, bomb detonates, [2]8HK~KK, 6HP, 214LP or 214PP > Super Art 2/3
PC~5HK, [2]8KK~KK, 5HP or 5HK, bomb detonates, [2]8HK~KK, 6HP, [4]6PP > Super Art 3

Against reversal dragon punches, such as Ryu's, Bison can do a bomb replant combo that also side swaps if he so chooses (with the first two combos). This is useful against Jamie as you can't walk under his Arrow Kick, although it is much tighter as Bison has to hit the standing heavy kick later. The timing may differ from character to character as the bomb timing requires that Bison blocks the DP in most cases. These combos work with any Backfist Combo OKI, although the heavy version sets up the combo better in most scenarios. To guarantee not side swapping, Bison should use light or medium Shaow Rise, but Shadow Rise makes it easier to side swap. Bison's steering after Head Press also needs to be kept in mind, and can help with side swaps.

Meaty After Throw
Various


Meaty 4HK, 2MP > 236MK Bomb Detonate 214HP/[4]6HP > Super Art 3
Meaty 4HK, 2MP > 236MK Bomb Detonate 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3
Meaty 4HK, 2MP > 236MK Bomb Detonate 6HP, 214MP
Meaty 4HK, 2MP > 236MK Bomb Detonate [2]8K~K~P, 214LP / 214PP > Super Art 2/3
Meaty 4HK, 2MP > 236MK Bomb Detonate j.MP~MP, 6HP, 214LP / 214PP > Super Art 2/3
Meaty 2LK, 2LP > 236LK Bomb Detonate previous follow ups all work off this
Meaty 5HP, 2MP > 236LK Bomb Detonate ...

These are the combos and follow ups you can do once you have planted a bomb, and then immediately throw the opponent. j.MP~MP combos only work if the opponent is grounded when the bomb detonates. This is because the juggle limit is not met in these combos, compared to the 236KK combos where it is.

Niche

Sometimes some combos just deal too much damage, like Devil Reverse with bomb, othertimes some combos only work when you land a certain starter or use bomb in a weird way. These may not be entirely practical, but they are very niche in their use cases, and thus useful, especially for playing the mental game. This is where the consistent but strange combos and setups go.

DAMAGE
Varies


[2]8K~PP, Super Art 3 / SiRN Bison Super Art

With combo only works with bomb. When OD Devil Reverse combos into Critical Art, it deals 7100 damage (7620 when the first hit is punish counter) for some reason. This is probably the best two Drive Gauge combo in the entire game. If you ever can punish someone with anything, and you don't want to burn yourself out, do this. If you manage to get Boss Bison, you can combo into that super too. Visually, Bison looks so incredibly close to hitting his regular Super Art 2.

  • Hypothetically this combo can be quite useful against the opponent trying to do weird supers against you.

Weird Wall Splats
Varies


DI weird counterhit wall splat 5MP~6HP, PDR~5LK > 236HK, [2]8K~K~P, 214PP > Super Art 2
DI wall splat 2HP > 236KK, 236HK, [2]8K~K~P, 214PP > Super Art 2

If Bison hits the opponent with a meaty non-punish counter drive impact after a bomb, he can do these niche combos. The second one can also be performed on a regular blocked wall splat rather than the weird counterhit state one, but it also deals less damage.

  • First combo deals 4299
  • Second combo deals 3944 if the opponent blocks the DI
Triple DI
Varies


DI, DI bomb detonates DI
DI, 2HP > DI bomb detonates DI

After baiting out a DP, Bison can simply just DI the opponent, and again, and again. Hypothetically, if the combo planting the bomb didn't start with a Punish Counter, the opponent should be left with half a bar of Drive Gauge left, and it only costs you two and a half bars total.

  • The version of this combo with a 2HP deals 2940 damage and 3.5 bars of drive gauge. It also sets up for an easy DI wall stun in the corner.
2HP after Wallsplat
Varies


DI, 2HP > 236KK, [4]6HP, [4]6LP > Super Art 3

This is just a strange combo, and it uses two non-OD Psycho Crushers too... This only works if you do meaty DI after planting a bomb in the corner.

DR Overhead Target Combo
Varies


PC DI, j.HK, PDR~5MP~6HP, PDR~5LK > 236KK, 6HP, [4]6LP

PC DI, j.HK, PDR~5MP~6HP, PDR~5LK > 236KK, 6HP, 214MP
PC DI, j.HK, PDR~5MP~6HP, PDR~5LK > 236KK, 6HP, 3HK or 2HK

PC DI, j.HK, PDR~5MP~6HP, PDR~5LK > 236KK, 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3

Some corner to corner and almost corner to corner combos that involve the standing medium punch into forward heavy punch target combo. These combos cost more drive gauge than their crouching heavy punch equivalent and deals less damage, but have greater screen travel. These combos are very consistent, except the standing heavy punch needs to be manually timed.

DR Crouching Heavy Punch
Varies


PC DI, j.HK, PDR~2HP > 236KK, PDR~5MP~6HP, [4]6LP

PC DI, j.HK, PDR~2HP > 236KK, PDR~5MP~6HP, 214MP
PC DI, j.HK, PDR~2HP > 236KK, PDR~5MP~6HP, 3HK or 2HK

PC DI, j.HK, PDR~2HP > 236KK, 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3

Some corner to corner and almost corner to corner combos that involve crouching heavy punch. These combos cost less drive gauge than their target combo equivalent and deals less damage, but has less screen travel. These combos are a little inconsistent at times, as the target combo is manually timed and OD scissors sometimes only hits twice.

4HK After a Bomb
Varies


after bomb plant PDR~4HK, 4HK > [4]6HP, Super Art 1
after bomb plant PDR~4HK, 2HP > [4]6HP, Super Art 1
after Super Art 2, PDR~4HK, 2HP > [4]6HP or 214HP

Technically comboing into 2HP is more optimal, but doing another 4HK deals more mental damage. These combos can be hit in a variety of ways.

  • Drive rushing and counter hitting the opponent with a meaty, leaving you +10 after the first 4HK
  • Drive rushing at the opponent and hitting them meaty without a counterhit, leaving you at +11 after the first 4HK
  • Drive rushing and punish counter hitting the opponent, leaving you +12 after the first 4HK
  • Drive rushing at the opponent after a Super Art 2 and hitting them with a meaty 4HK leaves you +11 on hit, although it removes the bomb

The Good
Varies


PC~DI, [2]8HK~KK, 5HP > Super Art 1/2/3

A good side swapping combo from a Drive Impact. If Bison wants to, he can plant a bomb with Backfist Combo instead.

The Bad
Varies


... 236KK, PDR~2MP > 214HP

Works if the opponent is grounded, but can work in a juggle if Bison times the drive rush crouching medium punch well enough. This combo side swaps because only the first hit of heavy backfist hits the opponent, leaving Bison +6 in that scenario. When used out of DI, it is best to cancel into OD scissors from crouching heavy punch. Due to not hitting the second hit, the opponent doesn't go very far, and does not have bomb planted on them. Because this combo looks weird, people who don't autopilot backroll will be in throw and meaty trade combo evil knee range.
For some reason when the opponent is grounded, crouching medium punch is the only normal that works for this set up:

  • Standing medium punch and crouching heavy punch combos into backfist properly
  • Lights just don't work
The Ugly
Varies


PC~DI, [2]8HK~KK, 236KK, delay, PDR~2MP > 214HP

It's ugly, but funny.
