    I am looking for some practice against a legit Bison. I just found out some dude in HR plays Bison, and he says he is tournament level....which I quickly called him out on because he is not fat enough. He wants a money match, and I desperately need practice, anybody down for a few rounds so I don't get humiliated?
     
    And no, spamming ex head stomps =/ good.

    I had a really good Bison player on my friends list but he hasn't been on live in 2 months. Maybe watch some match videos?

    Well someone saying they are tournament level could just mean they played in one tournament and won A match. So dont take it as gospel.

    @Stang:   His poke attacks are excellent and you can use his EX-Scissor Kicks to get through fireball traps that used to give him so much trouble. He also has some solid reversal moves now. This guy is very good. 

    • Strengths •
    + Tons of mobility with his air attack moves
    + Exceptional poke, standing Medium Kick
    + His EX moves are very good
    + Does pretty good damage when he hits
    + Strong zoning game
    + Master of the Tick Throw
    + Good foot and move speed
    + Bison dizzies other fighters fairly quickly

    • Weaknesses •
    - Multiple jump ins and cross up attacks give him trouble
    - Doesn't have great mix up options on offense, relies on a lot of pokes and throws
    - Range on Focus Attack isn't good
    - Psycho Crusher has limited use

    - Relies heavily on bait tactics and feints to deal damage

    @Jeffsekai:  Bleh, watching vids does me little good, I learn by playing. It is kind of like reading a text book, it does you no good until you can apply it in a real situation.
     
    @Plasma:  Good info man. I have no problems fighting Bison, honestly I think the Ken/Bison match up is one of my stronger match ups. I have one guy on my friends list that has a sick Bison, but I have a better chance to see hell freeze over than be online the same time he is. I was just hoping to get some practice in with somebody moderately competent, just for shits and gigs. Thanks for tips though :)

    I know you were just complaining about how most people on SRK are douchebags, but you might want to ask someone from the Bison forum there? I'm sure someone is down for some games.
