A powerhouse with oppressive plus-frames, teleport pressure, and corner lockdown.
M. Bison overwhelms opponents with frame traps and Psycho Mine pressure. He 'dictates' the pace by forcing opponents to block while he plants bombs for high-damage checkmate sequences.
Key Strengths
- Frame Advantage: Dominates close range with plus-on-block normals.
- Psycho Mine: Bomb plants force opponents to freeze or take massive damage.
- Corner Traps: Extremely strong throw/strike mixup against cornered opponents.
Key Weaknesses
- Mobility: Slow walk speed; relies on Drive Rush to close gaps.
- Defensive Gaps: No invulnerable reversal without spending Super meter.
- Linear Approach: Scissor Kicks and Devil Reverse can be anti-aired if predictable.
Counter-Strategy
Contest his dash pressure with fast light buttons when he gives up advantage. Once he commits to Psycho Crusher spacing, punish with a Drive Rush confirm. On defense, use delayed tech to beat his throw/frame-trap mix-ups.
