M. BISON / DICTATOR - MOVES COMBOS & STRATEGY

M. BISON (DICTATOR)

CHARACTER INTRO

M. Bison is by far and away one of the most powerful characters in the game. He has some of the best normals in Street Fighter IV (Medium and Hard Kick) which allow him to keep his opponent in check at all times. M. Bisons jumping Medium Kick is a great cross up and leads to many combos. His jumping Medium Punch is best used as an air-to-air move and can be followed up with his Ultra since he lands before his opponent. Its safe to say M. Bison can win rounds just using his normals alone.

Beyond that, he can play defensively through most of the match, using his Devil Reverse move to build meter safely on the other side of the screen forcing his opponent to come to him. His Light Kick Scissor Kick is one of the safest special moves in the game, leaving him at a safe distance even when blocked which allows him to wait and counter his opponents next move. The EX version of his scissor kick is extremely fast and goes through fireballs. His Headstomp is a great move to get around Shoto fireballs and the EX version is brutal when used as anti-air.

M. Bison also has the ability to teleport which relives him of many wake up situations that are difficult to get out of for other characters.

His Ultra can be used as anti air, and as mentioned before comboed after an air-to-air Medium Punch making it one of the better Ultras in the game. Although his combos take a bit more timing and skill than others, if you are playing to win in Street Fighter IV, M. Bison is a good place to start.
