M. Bison

As the leader of the organization known as Shadaloo, M. Bison has had a hand in just about illegal industry the world has ever known. M. Bison's strength comes from his mastery of "Psycho Power" and that has allowed him to become one of the deadliest warriors on the planet. Not only that, but he is nearly immortal, being able to transfer his soul to new bodies. He has thus far managed to escape death twice: once, after defeat at the hands of Rose, and again when defeated by Ryu and Ken. M. Bison is now using the S.I.N. corporation to fund his "Living Incubator" program that will ensure he will never be without a suitable host ever again.

In a nutshell

Bison's playstyle focuses on one simple facet - space control. The Dictator is an absolute monster when it comes to limiting his opponents' movements, thanks to his excellent pokes and footsies such as Crouching Short/Forward and all of his standing kicks, his surprising pressure with his Scissor Kicks which are easy to hit-confirm off of the aforementioned Crouching kicks, and his overall element of surprise with his Head Stomp-Devil's Reverse mind games. With this much offensive potential, however, Bison has little in terms of defense. His only reliable reversals are relatively unsafe, especially when predicted, and once he gets knocked down and crossed up he loses his charge, which is absolutely necessary for him. Your goal with Bison will be to bully your adversaries with pokes and pressure, and whittle away at them slowly but steadily, breaking their mental guard through frustration and conditioning.

Moves

Standing Close Normals

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Close LP	Close Jab	Close lp	speccancel supercancel
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Mainly used in tick throwing or as a combo filler. Good priority when a bit away from the opponent.
File:No image.png	Close MP	Close Strong	Close mp	speccancel supercancel
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Punch to the gut. Not really used much because of its recovery, but almost does as much damage as cl.HP.
File:No image.png	Close HP	Close Fierce	Close hp	speccancel supercancel
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ An uppercut to the jaw with a fist surrounded by psycho energy. Your go-to move if you are punishing something with a combo. Also can be used in a few frame traps.
File:No image.png	Close LK	Close Short	Close lk	speccancel supercancel
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ A quick knee to the mid area. There is no difference the close or far variants. Bison's second fastest move with a startup of 4F. Not chain cancelable, but combos into itself and a few other moves making it useful in combos. Good to tick throw with as well.
File:No image.png	Close MK	Close Forward	Close mk	supercancel
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Weird looking low kick. Bad priority.
File:No image.png	Close HK	Close Roundhouse	Close hk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ One of Bison's best buttons. Fast, damaging, good anti-air, and your go-to no charge combo ender. Has 2 different hitboxes, one on his thigh (for the max 110 damage) and the other on his leg (for reduced damage). If you don't think you can punish something with a combo, just press standing roundhouse.

Standing Far Normals

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Far LP	Far Jab	lp	speccancel supercancel
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Has a good hitbox, but is mostly useless.
File:No image.png	Far MP	Far Strong	mp	speccancel supercancel
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ High straight punch. Good range, mostly used in combos and frame traps.
File:No image.png	Far HP	Far Fierce	hp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ (No uses/strategies)
File:No image.png	Far LK	Far Short	lk	speccancel supercancel
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ A quick knee to the mid area. There is no difference the close or far variants. Bison's second fastest move with a startup of 4F. Not chain cancelable, but combos into itself and a few other moves making it useful in combos. Good to tick throw with as well.
File:No image.png	Far MK	Far Forward	mk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Bison's main poking tool. Is negative on block, but is usually safe when spaced correctly. Its also easier to use as a combo ender than standing HK.
File:No image.png	Far HK	Far Roundhouse	hk
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ One of Bison's best buttons. Fast, damaging, good anti-air, and your go-to no charge combo ender. Very good in footsies. Has 2 different hitboxes, one on his thigh (for the max 110 damage) and the other on his leg (for reduced damage). If you don't think you can punish something with a combo, just press standing roundhouse.

Crouching Normals

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Crouch LP	Crouch Jab	d + lp	speccancel supercancel
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Regardless of the fact that it doesn't hit low, this is Bison's main hit confirm tool. Easy to set up tick throws.
File:No image.png	Crouch MP	Crouch Strong	d + mp	speccancel supercancel
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Crouching straight. Combos into specials and good for some frame traps.
File:No image.png	Crouch HP	Crouch Fierce	d + hp	supercancel
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Can be used as an anti-air, but requires some timing. Otherwise useless except for comboing into Knee Press Nightmare.
File:No image.png	Crouch LK	Crouch Short	d + lk	speccancel supercancel
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Short range, but the only 3F startup move Bison has outside of his throws. Combo starter; can link into itself (it may seem hard at first without plinking [D + LK + LP], but there is a timing to it).
File:No image.png	Crouch MK	Crouch Forward	d + mk	speccancel supercancel
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Crouching side kick. Only a tiny bit more range than cr.LK. Used mostly for punishing, hit confirms, and frame traps.
File:No image.png	Crouch HK	Crouch Roundhouse	d + hk	supercancel
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Sliding sweep that's really unsafe unless done from close to max distance or meaty. Can be canceled into a focus attack or Knee Press Nightmare to save your skin if you do do this unsafely. Easy way to get back in if you send someone out of your range while keeping charge (i.e: after a throw)

	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ (No uses/strategies)
File:No image.png	Diagonal Jump MP	Diagonal Jump Strong	ub / uf + mp
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ A downward punch that on an air-to-air hit, puts the opponent in a free juggle state in which pretty much anything can hit them. Preferably after landing a mixup afterwards. You can also followup after with another MP for his Hell Attack which limits his juggle options. j.MP close s.HP xx LP Psycho Crusher
File:No image.png	Diagonal Jump HP	Diagonal Jump Fierce	ub / uf + hp

Special Moves

	Name	Nickname	Command	Notes
File:No image.png	Psycho Crusher	Torpedo	b (charge) f + p ex armorbreak
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Bison flies across the screen surrounded by purple energy. Punch button used determines damage and distance. EX version has invincibility frames on its startup, and almost always passes through the opponent, making it his best reversal (also a good anti-air). Regular Psycho Crushers are good combo enders if you're going for damage. LP Crusher mixup: After landing a LP Psycho Crusher from a bit away (you'll still be in front of the opponent), quickly charge back for another Psycho Crusher and perform it after the first Crusher recovers. If your opponent quick-rises, then they will have to change direction to block the 2nd crusher.
File:No image.png	Double Knee Press	Scissor Kick	b (charge) f + k ex
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Bison's signature move (other than the Psycho Crusher, but he has always had the knee press), kicking the opponent twice in a forward motion. The kick button used determines damage, range, and startup/recovery. The MK and HK versions are mainly used in bread and butter combos, but they have more uses outside of that. The LK, arguably the most important, is used for (sort of) safe pressuring. It used to be ~0 or +1 on block, but now its -1 on block, however, most people still don't punish (unless they have a throw or rekka or something). All the other variants are unsafe on block as well. The EX version is invincible for a time on startup (fully from 1-12f, projectile from 13-19f, and throw from 13-17f), so you can hit someone trying to keep you away with fireballs.
File:No image.png	Head Press	Head Stomp	d (charge) u + k ex	After Head Press connects, use b or f to change flight in air
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Bison jumps according to how far his enemy is from him and stomps on the opponent's head. It has a lot of priority as an air-to-air. Use it as an anti-fireball for some characters or to harass the opponent from a distance in the corner. Don't use it too often, as it can be easily dodged and punished. The EX version is faster, has more priority, causes a hard knockdown, and does good damage. However, this move is easily dodged and punished (literally just move anywhere), so use sparingly.
File:No image.png	Head Press Follow Up	Head Press Follow Up
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ After landing a Head Press (hit or blocked) Bison will do a somersault that can be controlled, and if you press a punch button, he will do a followup attack (Skull Diver).
File:No image.png	Somersault Skull Diver	Skull Diver	p ex	Perform after Head Press
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ (No uses/strategies)
File:No image.png	Empty Devil Reverse	Empty Devil Reverse	d (charge) u + p ex
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ A Head Press-like move that doesn't do damage when reaching the opponent, instead you can press a punch button in flight to flip and do a downwards punch. Used as a fake to bait a reaction for your opponent and punish, or you can use it to build meter when far away from your enemy.
File:No image.png	Devil Reverse	Devil Reverse	(during Empty Devil Reverse) p ex
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ (See Empty Devil Reverse)
File:No image.png	Bison Warp	Teleport	dp or rdp + 3p or 3k	dp + 3p will appear next to opponent in back, dp + 3k will appear next to opponent in front, rdp versions are identical and will go backwards as far as the screen allows, if opponent is in corner, rdp + 3p goes back half-screen and rdp + 3k goes back full-screen
	~~ Uses and Strategies ~~ Bison's teleport.
