I gotta put my Bison pre-order Alt to good use! Thanks again! Even though these were uploaded before the game came out, they are very useful! Again, the most efficient all around guides I have seen! If Alex is anything like he was in SF3, I will most likely main him, and I can't wait to see your vid on him as well. I usually do my own thing and figure out combos, but looking at your stuff after gives me ideas I didn't really know/ think about. Thanks again! I hope the SF V community thrives as strong, if not stronger than the previous games/ incarnations.
You can guarantee the EX V-trigger stomp connect at 4:10 by using MP flames instead of MK Scissors i.e: s.hk -> cr.mp xx mp flames -> V-trigger cancel -> EX stomp, its not an optimal combo though, only does 310 damage and 432 stun compared to the standard combo at 2:25 (But it looks super cool) Edit: You can also guarantee the EX V-trigger stomp from a HP flames by using a combo such as: s.hp xx hp flames -> V-trigger cancel -> EX stomp, this only does 289 damage and 372 stun.
I would include VT Devil Reverse > CA (it's usable) Hell Attack > Scissors HK Hell Attack > EX Inferno (225) Hell Attack > VT > Blast > EX Scissors (285) (activation of VT during the combo instead of before it)
Hi, I'm having trouble with 2:14's combo; really wanna try and learn this to up some of my game w/Bison but it feels so difficult. I'm not great at charging as is and I dunno if they changed this from Season II. Do you have any possible tips for me? Cheers.
I have a problem with M.Bison. Every time i do crouch MP MP or whatever combination with MP into double knee press, like 30/40% of the time Bison combos into psycho blast. I tested this with input commands like MP MP MK and even says on screen im inputting those commands but Bison still has the habbit of using psycho blast instead of double knee press. Im trying to learn Bison in SFV (I already knew bison from every other games) but this is making it realy hard for me to learn him. He seems pretty broken to me. I use a Arcade stick but also tested this on a PS4 controller and its still there (PS4). i have no problem with the same combination into psycho blast or lets say crouch MP MP into head press wich is basicly almost the same combination only up but no problems there either. But if i do the double knee version, its the psycho blast again =/. Can someone please help cause i dunno wat to do.
Are these still relevant for season 4? I’ve had the game since the release but never learned how to play m bison seems to be a good person to start with him or balrog
Pretty much still relevant. Bison max meterless damage is now hp xx hard inferno, light blast, and he's got a few other combos based on that, but the fundamental combo routes don't change much between seasons. If you want a full take on what's different for bison, just check out my "bison at a glance" for season 2, 3, and 4
Bafael thanks! Can you explain how to cancel into knee press/psycho blast? I’ve had the game since the release but I’m just getting into it. Trying to figure out how to do HP->knee press or like C.mp->knee press and how do players use his specials instantly, I feel like I’m charging back a long time and the move still won’t come out
@@dr3wchen631 there's not a lot to it. You need to have been holding back or down/back for 1-2 seconds (or more). Then you just do any button you want to cancel then instantly do straight forward + punch or kick depending on whether you want blast or scissor kick. If it won't come out you're either not getting enough charge or you're doing the cancel too slow
Bafael ayy thanks for the help! I figured out how to combo into the specials. I never won a single round ever but now I’ve gone a 6 game win streak and a total of 20 wins in one night. I only know 2-3 small strings but I’m actually winning games with bison. I used to think the super input was hard but now I’ve cheesed a couple games with wake up super and anti airing super all in a night, in that bronze league now 😂
+MystyrNile On the last beta (the 3rd one) it got nerfed so that only the EX Inferno was safe, and it was safe at all ranges. The other versions were not safe anymore at any range. The trade off is that its a QCB motion like you said. I can accept that trade off. Light Psycho ball is safe no matter what, and Scissors is safe at the right range. Of course this is all subject to change until the game comes out. I'm really liking Bison a lot in this so far.
Because the opponent can tech the OTG, I feel like it shouldn't count as a combo. This gives it more damage because there won't be any mitigation either.
i'm new to street fighter so forgive my lack of knowledge. I can't seem to combo after v trigger. the inputs come out and all but its not a combo. iv become pretty fluent with double tapping and all that jazz but it doesn't seem to help in this situation. I also can't do the head press after inferno. any help would be appreciated.
+Dominique Calloway If you're cancelling into v-trigger from LK scissor, you can't combo anything. If you're cancelling from MK scissor, you can only link into st. LK. If you're cancelling from HK scissor, you can link crouching MP
Regarding the text version : it would be nice to also show the button inputs for special moves, as opposed to just referring to them by their names. Of course that's not a deal breaker as this just takes a few minutes of research from the reader, but still - making things easier/faster to read is always a good thing :) Keep up the great work !
Heya SG - I see it more as an internal consistency thing really. Personally it doesn't bother me at all, but making a text document as clear and complete as possible is always a good thing.
+MrLegatoblue Only in v-trigger, just do the move's motion and EX. You don't need charge so it's just back forward kicks to do EX scissor out of psycho burst or inferno or w/e. The combos I show here are to the best of my knowledge the optimal ones so just use them. Also you can't cancel into the same move so you can do inferno > EX burst but not inferno > EX inferno.
+Snake PIiskan They didn't change it. You have to do heavy scissor kick to link cr. MP, while medium scissor VT only links to st. LK and light scissor VT doesn't link to anything.
+Bafael my bad thought i deleted the reply, im pretty sure they took the non ex flame into head stomp out in the 4th beta when i tried him so ive never been doing it. So ya it doesnt work have to ex flame into ex head stomp, and it doesnt work in the corner
scratch that, I can combo after v trigger now. but the inferno into head press doesn't seem to work. also do you have vids on basic play. like when to use what normal, frame traps, or how to play bison in general after you've learned all these combos and junk.
From what i see here in vtrigger do you not have to charge your charge moves? Very new to street fighter and just getting a hold of the basics would love a reply thank you and great video.
+Stephen Ball In v-trigger you only don't need to charge the moves if you do a different move first. Almost any normal or special can be canceled into almost any other special move, without charging, so long as you're in v-trigger.
+carlos bison I don't think there's any way to do that route anymore, you have to do pscyho blast into ex scissor kick for 1 bar or maybe psycho blast, EX inferno, EX blast for 2? If you're talking about the combo I show, inferno into EX headstomp, that's gone, but you can juggle EX scissor instead which does just shy of the same damage.
ranmashin you don't need to charge in combos with bisons vtrigger. You can just do inferno then a quick down up kicks. it's a cancel so it's basically instant
+Bafael That's so weird it was working on launch day (i know for sure because it was the only time i played bison). I was not aware that they released a patch for it strange didnt see any patch notes.
the only reason why i will buy sf5 because m,bison got is power back from sf2ce and is looking so badass , mbison and birdie are far the best looking character
The only combo that outright doesn't work is v-trigger inferno into EX stomp, but now you can do inferno then EX blast, then juggle d/f HP, which does more. That's pretty much it.
+Radioactive Deathbat I just finally rolled around to testing this. It doesn't work, sorry I didn't test it myself until just now. Instead, do inferno then juggle (not cancel) EX scissor. Damage is only slightly lower.
+Ryan Yim +Bafael Thanks again Bafael for this series; the writeups are especially appreciated. Maybe you want to make a note in the description saying that the EX headstomp combos don't work anymore? I wonder what purpose that move is going to serve now,, maybe instant fullscreen fireball punish? If the tracking on it is as bad as it is for the regular headstomp, it won't even be useful for that.
Bison sure gets some beefy damage with those EX cancels. Loving the change in his style in this game.
I gotta put my Bison pre-order Alt to good use! Thanks again! Even though these were uploaded before the game came out, they are very useful! Again, the most efficient all around guides I have seen!

Lord effing Bison!!! Can't wait for SFV to drop. I NEED to play him!
THE OMEGA LORD BISON!
That's Master Bison lol
You can guarantee the EX V-trigger stomp connect at 4:10 by using MP flames instead of MK Scissors
i.e: s.hk -> cr.mp xx mp flames -> V-trigger cancel -> EX stomp, its not an optimal combo though, only does 310 damage and 432 stun compared to the standard combo at 2:25 (But it looks super cool)
Edit:
You can also guarantee the EX V-trigger stomp from a HP flames by using a combo such as:
s.hp xx hp flames -> V-trigger cancel -> EX stomp, this only does 289 damage and 372 stun.
If you delay the j.mp hits you can activate VT as soon as you land and juggle into Blast xx EX Scissors for good damage.
Thank you for making this. I'm new to fighting games and this stuff is a great help.
Yes! Thanks bro finally have some combos to get down when the game drops! Bison army stand up!
SHADOLOO BABY!!
Neutral jump hell attack is sick. Glad they got rid of that goofy looking nj strong from usf4. Thanks for the vids baf
Nice video guide
Best version of the Dictator I've played so far!
Bison is a beast in this game.
Bison is so sick in this game. I love it. It's a pity that him and Fang are charge characters, I never play them :(
Love it, thanks! Picked up the game recently
More optimal CC combo:
CC s.hk => slightest walk forward => s.hk => cr.mp xx mp flames
+Lunatic Soul Doesn't that do the same damage as st. HK, d/f HP, cr. MP?
more stun is optimal, good work
I love doing Stomp followed by he'll attack, cMP, M inferno
I would include
VT Devil Reverse > CA (it's usable)
Hell Attack > Scissors HK
Hell Attack > EX Inferno (225)
Hell Attack > VT > Blast > EX Scissors (285) (activation of VT during the combo instead of before it)
@ 0:46, can someone explain to me how cr.mp, down, down-back, back gets inferno out? Don't you need an up input for the move to come out?
+Mitsurugi117 They changed the motion to qcb.
+Bafael That makes sense. I must be playing a different version then. Thanks for the quick response
Hi, I'm having trouble with 2:14's combo; really wanna try and learn this to up some of my game w/Bison but it feels so difficult. I'm not great at charging as is and I dunno if they changed this from Season II. Do you have any possible tips for me? Cheers.
That combo still works. Just hold right (or left if going the other way. There's no trick, there's just only barely enough time to charge
I have a problem with M.Bison. Every time i do crouch MP MP or whatever
combination with MP into double knee press, like 30/40% of the time

i do the double knee version, its the psycho blast again =/.
Can someone please help cause i dunno wat to do.
+GrijzeVos I'm gonna make a video about this, okay? Cuz I know what you're doing and how to fix it
+Bafael Ok nice.
+GrijzeVos ua-cam.com/video/krj5nAKohf4/v-deo.html
(charge)d,u,mk, (midair)HP standing mp to crouching mp into scissor kick. V-trigger~ standing lk, psycho blast, ex scissor kick.

Is the Inferno still highly plus on block? It reminds me of Vulcano Rosso's Vulcan, right down to the QCB+P motion.
+MystyrNile On the last beta (the 3rd one) it got nerfed so that only the EX Inferno was safe, and it was safe at all ranges. The other versions were not safe anymore at any range.

Keep up the great work !
+Pior O Common sense to learn how to do your special moves before going to youtube and watch tutorials. It's pointless.
Heya SG - I see it more as an internal consistency thing really. Personally it doesn't bother me at all, but making a text document as clear and complete as possible is always a good thing.
Pior O Yes, but a waste of effort. It makes no difference.
How do you do ex moves/specials into ex moves? I know you can do it during v-trigger, but i cant figure it out.
+MrLegatoblue Only in v-trigger, just do the move's motion and EX. You don't need charge so it's just back forward kicks to do EX scissor out of psycho burst or inferno or w/e. The combos I show here are to the best of my knowledge the optimal ones so just use them. Also you can't cancel into the same move so you can do inferno > EX burst but not inferno > EX inferno.
+Bafael so you can only do normal specials ino ex? You cant do ex into ex? Example: ex scissors into ex stomp?
You can do normal to ex or ex to ex. EX scissors and EX stomp dont cancel tho
Once again an awesome video. keep em comming, baffy :-)
how do you get the cr.mp to land after usin vt cancel? i seriously cant connect with it. think they changed it?
+Snake PIiskan They didn't change it. You have to do heavy scissor kick to link cr. MP, while medium scissor VT only links to st. LK and light scissor VT doesn't link to anything.
+Bafael thanks for the quick response. good videos
makes sense now i've been usin mk scissors this whole time
how do you flame into ex head stomp?
+d vecchi I just tested this and it no longer works. Do inferno and juggle EX scissor instead (not a cancel)
Might be corner only then.
+Bafael my bad thought i deleted the reply, im pretty sure they took the non ex flame into head stomp out in the 4th beta when i tried him so ive never been doing it. So ya it doesnt work have to ex flame into ex head stomp, and it doesnt work in the corner
scratch that, I can combo after v trigger now. but the inferno into head press doesn't seem to work. also do you have vids on basic play. like when to use what normal, frame traps, or how to play bison in general after you've learned all these combos and junk.
+Dominique Calloway Yeah, that combo is gone, but you can do inferno then juggle (not cancel) EX scissor instead. The damage is less than 10 lower.
+Bafael kk ill give it a shot
From what i see here in vtrigger do you not have to charge your charge moves? Very new to street fighter and just getting a hold of the basics would love a reply thank you and great video.
+Stephen Ball In v-trigger you only don't need to charge the moves if you do a different move first. Almost any normal or special can be canceled into almost any other special move, without charging, so long as you're in v-trigger.
how do you go from Psycho Blast into EX HeadStomp?
+carlos bison I don't think there's any way to do that route anymore, you have to do pscyho blast into ex scissor kick for 1 bar or maybe psycho blast, EX inferno, EX blast for 2? If you're talking about the combo I show, inferno into EX headstomp, that's gone, but you can juggle EX scissor instead which does just shy of the same damage.
Bafael how do you do a psycho inferno into a headstone? I can't seem to buffer it.
ranmashin you don't need to charge in combos with bisons vtrigger. You can just do inferno then a quick down up kicks. it's a cancel so it's basically instant
***** so it doesn't have to be the ex version? You did a Hard kick, to c.mp, to normal inferno and then headstomp.
Huh? Where? It has to be EX stomp and it's v-trigger only.
Are the inferno xx ex.stomps combos while in V-trigger gone from retail?
+rscoppola Just checked. Yeah. Sorry. Do inferno then juggle EX scissor kick instead (not a cancel). The damage is only slightly lower.
+Bafael You can headstomp after the flame without cancelling now I think.
+Bafael That's so weird it was working on launch day (i know for sure because it was the only time i played bison). I was not aware that they released a patch for it strange didnt see any patch notes.
great vids dude, helps me out a lot!
the only reason why i will buy sf5 because m,bison got is power back from sf2ce and is looking so badass , mbison and birdie are far the best looking character
sick tune
Why i have 5 hit on the very first combo punish combo and u have 6 hit ???????????????
You're missing the link from the st. HK to cr. MP, because you're not timing it right. Alternatively, you're using LP inferno, instead of MP.
+Bafael mmm i see ! Ill keep trying
Thanks btw
does bison have any overhead moves?
kid flash Wally West no, his mixup relies on his big throw range and how easily he racks up gray damage
Are these still doable in season 2? I just picked up Bison
The only combo that outright doesn't work is v-trigger inferno into EX stomp, but now you can do inferno then EX blast, then juggle d/f HP, which does more. That's pretty much it.
st.MP counter hit can lead into cr+f.HP :D
what song in bg?
+Black Steve SFV menu theme, says in description
bison is so cool but too bad he is a charge character, I don't know how to play charged character....
+Danyal Elia So learn. No one who plays charge characters initially knew how to play a charge character.
awesome, thank you
Vega sama FTW
helped a Lot, thanks
Needs more psycho crusher
Thanks!
Can't do any charge attacks to save my life
Thank you for the vid! ^ ^
Its a shame I had to look at a 5 year old video just to play bison ugh stv
Lmao I feel ya
WHAT'S AN OTG?!?!?!!!11
On the ground
+TeaNoSugar87 An off-the-ground combo.
+MystyrNile sorry, was a joke from the stream
already outdated.
+thePhished what's different besides his target combo?
Does the V-trigger Inferno xx EX Stomp work in release? Can't get the stomp to connect.
+Radioactive Deathbat I just finally rolled around to testing this. It doesn't work, sorry I didn't test it myself until just now. Instead, do inferno then juggle (not cancel) EX scissor. Damage is only slightly lower.
i'm having a really hard time linking inferno or ex inferno with headstomp. any pointers for that?
+Ryan Yim It's gone :( Do inferno then juggle EX scissor kick instead (not a cancel). The damage is only slightly lower.
+Bafael Saw someone do ex inferno -> ex headstomp in pyscho power mode. Can you do a tutorial on this or any pointers for this?
+Ryan Yim +Bafael
Thanks again Bafael for this series; the writeups are especially appreciated. Maybe you want to make a note in the description saying that the EX headstomp combos don't work anymore?
I wonder what purpose that move is going to serve now,, maybe instant fullscreen fireball punish? If the tracking on it is as bad as it is for the regular headstomp, it won't even be useful for that.
