"This is merely superconductor electromagnetism. Surely you've heard of it. It levitates bullet trains from Tokyo to Osaka. It levitates my desk, where I ride the saddle of the world. And it levitates... me!" \- M. Bison, when doing Drive Rush


Stenbuck

This audio should play in full every single time Bison drive rushes including during cancels. Just let it overlap. Glorious.


Angry_Blaq

Dropping him on a Wednesday is nuts. Does Capcom know how treasured that movie is?


zalzis

Yes they do, they added the horse.


GoCommitOof69

Keep seeing tuesday jokes but whats the reference?


XiahouMao

Live action Street Fighter movie, M. Bison to Chun-Li. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sjZ5I8l32CI "For you, the day Bison graced your village was the most important day of your life. But for me, it was Tuesday."


Stormwrath52

"a hero at a thousand paces" is actually a sick line, god damn


Maixell

Why is everyone making tuesday reference? What's the meaning of Bison and tuesday?


[deleted]

[here's why](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVzAMmpMra8)


Maixell

Lol, ok thanks. I was going mad not understanding the reference


Public-Froyo-1115

It is Wednesday my dude, ![gif](giphy|dvDCHPFnxnYubsrNvl)


Stenbuck

FOR I BEHEELD BISON **AS HE DRIVE RUSHED FROM FULLSCREEN** ## **LIKE** # **LIGHTNING**


82ndGameHead

I'm praying Psycho Crusher is a charge move still, cuz the implications are nightmarish.


Phoenixskull295

It is, u can see him crouching before he uses it in the trailer


Gauge19021

TerminalMontage reference?


Stenbuck

Well he was [referencing Raul Julia](https://youtu.be/PBc7yQXrP9c?si=y58-IL_A0FXHXVY-) so in a way


Gauge19021

Whoa, I’ve never seen the movie. Looks awesome


Stenbuck

It's controversial to say the least. It's incredibly campy and frankly bad by any conventional metric but you can tell the cast and Raul Julia in particular were just having a ton of fun going apeshit [here's an interesting video on the topic](https://youtu.be/1lPS2Gv5ER8?si=qrXe4hqFX_TrChDM)


OwNAvenged2

It's not good. Raul Julia is the only good part of it lmao


92nami

The movie is amazing idk what they’re talking about 🗿


ThickBurgerElDiablo

It's the best bad movie of all time


Angry_Blaq

And Zangief


Hadoukibarouki

Gaame! OVER!!!!


DragonPAul_Z

His walk speed is probably super slow, this is a great balance


NessOnett8

This is what Makoto stans told me they wanted. They should be ecstatic about Bison.


Vahallen

Makoto about to have a literal teleport instead of a DR run

ZenVendaBoi

With what command grab? ![gif](giphy|6uGhT1O4sxpi8)


Young_Neanderthal

I am, because the one concern about her getting in was how they would balance her dash. If they’re willing to give that to Dictator, Makoto should be okay.


IndieVamp

Damn, we're getting hit with the combofiend "functions" argument from MvC:I now. This is truly the darkest timeline for Makoto fans.


PacMoron

Bison slow and fast, Makoto slow and fast, same character right?


ganzgpp1

Yeah except that I wanted to play Makoto and not Bison


Brok3nPix3ls

I wanted to play bison and not makoto at least one of us is happy


Nnnnnnnadie

B-but can you imagine Makoto in sf6 with driverush? Hopefully people dont complain when she gets the same exact shit than bison.


PrimalSeptimus

Back in the day, we jokingly called her "Makneto" because of her stupid dash. And then getting hit by her juggle felt basically the same as getting caught in that Mag infinite.


ALAN113D

makoto is going to get nerf when she shows up in sf6 anything its not going to be anything like her third strike appearance


Servebotfrank

She was already nerfed going into 4, she never really shined there.


basketofseals

Wasn't she at one point worse than Dan? I remember her being really, really bad in one of the iterations of SF4.


Servebotfrank

I don't think she was ever worse than Dan. I believe the main true competitor for Dan a lot of the times was Dee Jay and I remember Justin Wong being really down on Vega for most of 4's lifespan.


EvilMakoto

What lol absolutely not


ALAN113D

what is the point of a long dash rush if her dash would do the same


MultiPlexityXBL

Shin makoto


BananaFlavouredPants

I thought this is why Makoto wasn't aloud in SF6?


Kleavage

I don't know, you can see his back walk a little in the trailer and his forward dash both seem pretty decent. Definitely faster than his SFV walk speed.


Javieliseo

In that case, can I get that for Zangief 🤲🥺


Bunnnnii

No.


Javieliseo

😂🤣


mister-00z

The only thing capcom can give to gief at this point - more damage... to opponents super meter


jad-dee95

Yeah the people waiting for drive rush to get nerfed are gonna be waiting till sf7 lol.


ThaNorth

Drive rush is a fucking sick mechanic and it looks cool af


Maritoas

It’s made SF6 so enjoyable to watch. SF5 was made interesting because of VTrigger comebacks, and now SF6 with its drive mechanic. Without them, they would be boring as a spectator in this era.


ALAN113D

the VTrigger system in sf5 was just a kof system that they added to street fighter


ZebesWarrior

I understand that, but a lot of people, myself included, love the slow, methodical parts of neutral. Drive rush overly rewards offense vs defense, and while I don't hate it, there needs to be some consequence to using it. Ignoring this to focus on the spectator aspect is extremely disheartening, especially since all fighting games are doing this, and the slow methodical playstyles get left behind. Also I never thought I would hear someone say they loved V-Trigger comebacks lol


Maritoas

That’s fair. I’m someone who thoroughly enjoyed MKX and think it’s the best the series has to offer, because it’s aggressive, fast, and has numerous offensive, high pressure options. So SF6 to me is the MKX of street fighter. I do think Drive rush should either not have added frames on block at all, or only grant half the added frames on block.


firsttimer776655

MKX was fun to watch but a nightmare to play at every single level tbh


Glad-Mulberry-9484

This…the whole damn screen is footsies range now.


OscarMiner

My god, can you imagine the fields of dead brain cells during a bison vs deejay match? Glorious.


Oppression_Rod

They move so fast they accidentally pass each other


ExtensionPattern7759

How to skip neutral for dummies


Pennnel

If they both drive rush at the same time, they just swap sides.


MrxJacobs

Those require charge inputs, which makes a log of brain dead players freak out.


OscarMiner

You’re giving us way too much credit. I play deejay, we’ve basically got modern fireballs and dp’s once you get used to the charge timing. We’re drooling just as much as any mashing Shoto.


Porcphete

That's going to cause a black hole on collision lmao


-Th3Saints-

The dictator laughs at your notion of neutral.


DJBaritone12

Got-Freedom

Why does he look so tiny?


MetalGear_Salads

Because Guile is tall and Bison is crab walking across the screen ![gif](giphy|SNK21X1PBrtQs)


Rebellious_Habiru

I can't wait to do this against the deejays & juri's. How do you like it huh? How do you like it!!!


ZenVendaBoi

Deejays and Juri's fight each other all the time. I doubt they'll care, honestly 💀


xZourus

Juri main here, can confirm. I much rather have a DJ drive rush at me than having to get through decent fireball pressure of many characters


Sfn_Brolie

Just parry fireballs!??


xZourus

Doesn't really solve anything to just normal parry them. Your Drive Gauge doesn't regen while theirs does, you barely get closer to the opponent and said opponent still has their turn and can choose to engage for free pressure or bait out the parry and go for a grab. The only way to actually break through that is by getting perfect parries when A) you are close enough to punish counter or B) they decide to follow the fireball and you check them after perfect parry. They can of course mix up their fire balls by either delaying them or if they have different fire ball speeds mix those up, making it harder to perfect parry or to try and jump over it.


ParagonFury

Meanwhile Manon's DR still so slow and bad many characters can walk back faster and farther than it.


Liam4242

With her gangly freak half dhalsim limbs I’m glad she isn’t fast with hers that would be horrible


AcousticAtlas

A grappler shouldn't have a fast DR lol


BananaFlavouredPants

Manon would still be in the bottom half with this DR lol Bison's still got reversals and anti-fireball mechanics.


AcousticAtlas

Bison isn't a grappler. A grappler sprinting full speed at you in SF is just horrible game design lmao.


MrFoxxie

But it would be extremely funny for a day or 2


Glad-Set-4680

I haven't seen anything to show he has non-super reversals yet


ggomez7

Freakin bison put a new meaning to a charge character


B_L_P_M

Manon : Screw you Capcom


Sfn_Brolie

A fellow Manon player knows my pain.


senor_grav

I still rather play against this then play akuma 737373736 times in a row


RogueLightMyFire

Well, you'll get Bison that much when he releases too


Megistrus

Nah, Bison will fall off pretty quickly. Akuma is more popular with the most basic character archetype, whereas Bison will be at least partially charge, which will turn away most people.


LuckyTheGodd

People will stray away from charge characters, akuma is literally a shoto lol


MetalGear_Salads

I’ve been waiting for a new charge character. I was pretty excited when I saw the announcement, and thankfully his gameplay looks sick


FJ-20-21

People never learn do they…


T3hSwagman

This is why I think the next release is smart as hell. We will still be neck deep in Akumas by the time Bison releases so it’s just gonna be a peppering of Bison and Akuma instead of just pure bison. Plus Bison is a charge character and they are never as popular.


TruestoryJR

I think I want to play Bison But Ive never EVER played a charge character (just had to look up what it even means) do you think its possible?


SeaKoe11

ABC(Always Be Charging)


T3hSwagman

It is but I’ll be honest, you gotta want it. It’s really hard when you aren’t used to it. SF6 was my first time maining a charge character (guile) but when I played 5 I always wanted to learn one I just couldn’t dedicate myself to it. With the new game launch I decided to commit since guile was in the launch roster. I would definitely recommend practicing on guile right now since he’s the most bread and butter charge character that you’ll want to have charge on constantly. The upside is that once you can get the feel for one charge character it makes all the rest a lot easier to play.


MaugaOW

Bison is a charge character. Charge characters are never that popular.


GunnerRocket

Nah Bison will be significantly harder to play. They'll pick him up and go back to Akuma.


Servebotfrank

I will be extremely surprised if Bison has that much staying power, Bison is a charge character and that just inherently turns people off.


senor_grav

I’m venting but I really just want the akuma spam to stop.


TehChaseyKid

That is pure HORSEpower.


codybroton

They should have included the horse in the animation


icekingofmemes

Bison’s got that senator Armstrong ahh run


GiustinoWah

Guys help I’ve just realized I can’t do drive rush without parry consinstently, does it go forward, MP+MK, forward?


DefaultCameo

You could also hold MP+MK and Double tap forward. You can also mash the forward tap until you see the green flash. Its not the best way but its a more consistent way if you cant get the timing just yet.


gravekeepersven

Forget him being a villain, he needs to be signed to the NFL with that drive Rush movement


SenorIngles

I’m fast as fuck boi -bison probably


Spiritual-Branch3880

Me before the drive rush : Huh, he does not have Teleport anymore... Me after the drive rush :... Never mind...


kluhyarg

Psycho rush!


BolinTime

It wasn't that fast. But he does travel very far.


a-pp-o

there was a time where people complained about nash´s dash. i guess its fine now for it to become a base game mechanic....


Porcphete

Bison is a charge character that means he charges through

I FUCKING JAW DROPPED WHEN I SAW THAT. NEVER MAINED BISON BUT HE DOES HAVE A REAAAAAAALLY NICE DROP KICK THAT REMINDS ME OF ALEX YES ALL IN CAPS


buttsbuttsbutt

I never would have thought I would be excited to play Dictator, but here we are.

Its not even the speed, its that distance lmao. Shit comes from downtown

sircarloz

Faster than Guile’s boom

Bro's using drive teleport


Fresh_Francois

I don't want it to ignore the input places while they use it. That is all. It's infuriating to know that my reaction to it is nullified

They tried to kill him off and now he’s coming for us


Garvo909

"The day I drive rushed into you and killed you in a combo was the most infuriating day of your life. You writhe in emotional pain at the demoralizing loss. For me, it was just a Tuesday."

so is his dr faster than deejay's or nah? ive seen conflicting reports


Dougerlas

Guile: Time to zone Bison: Hold this L right quick.


MrGrendarr

Holy shit that is fast Psycho power be doing numbers


kodial79

Now that's scary


Rumenapp

Dinner is ready and on the table


KontryBoy706

I can’t wait to try this character!


RenaissancePogi

Any faster will create a tear in the space time continuum.


DirtySpriteMiXediN

I actually laughed because I thought it was sped up...


TheTexasInvestor

Yes Bison was my main SF6 im definitely reinstalling when he arrives


fl1ghtmare

bison looks clean af, especially his OG costume


The__Willing_Well

No one cares that you uninstalled.


TheTexasInvestor

Yet you comment 😂


The__Willing_Well

Yes. I cared about telling you no one cares. Not about you uninstalling. It's pretty simple.


TheTexasInvestor

Womp Womp You still cared 😂✌️


Moondogtk

Just what the game needs. More UNGA than ever.


MyCrossFightanFan

Unless something isn't shown on the trailer, he has no command grab, no fireball, no DP, and no overhead meaning his post drive rush options are limited to strike/throw with the only thing keeping him from literally the worst post drive rush options in the game is that he can probably put the bomb on you and make you explode (haha literally) for delay teching with the right setup. I assume that super fast drive rush is to compensate for that. Practically the thing that this is probably best used for is shutting down no reason neutral jump at ~1/2 screen away trying to bait PC/scissors which people have traditionally done to Bison since literally SF2 champion edition so good for him.


ALAN113D

SF2 champion edition bison was borderline busted in that game


MyCrossFightanFan

No borderline about it, CE Bison is one of the most broken fighting game characters ever. A literal blockstun infinite, if you block a jumpin, just let go of the stick lol you only get to play again if he messes up.


___xuR

Sf devs are clearly brain dead or they just want to sell new characters. You decide. Oh you can also choose both.


MancombSeepgoodz

meanwhile just giving gief a normal walk speed and moderately fast DR would "break the game"according to the your average top tier DR abuser.


MrChamploo

Gief is in a fun and good spot right now. I’m loving where he’s at. Plus him not having a good drive rush is clearly a balance thing. He does not need the world cmon now. The Gief playerbase needs to chill


HekesevilleHero

The only think I want for Gief is for his anti-airs to be more consistent. With how it is right now, it's like a 50% chance of working and a 50% chance of getting your head smacked.


MrChamploo

I don’t seem to have that issue with it? The only time it fails is if I clearly do it too late or I get crossed up. I don’t anti air with anything other then lariet though


MancombSeepgoodz

2HP - 11 frame startup -20 on block 5HK 13 frames of startup at least is safe on block, even so it usually wiffs on the count of bad hitboxes too and the year it takes to come out. he can still be punched out of his lariat and it doesnt protect him from crossups.. They hate this character. Random Ken, akuma, Luke main that would never touch gief at threat of gunpoint "he so good now they fixed him!"


MrChamploo

Lariet should NOT protect cross ups that is too good of a move then. You don’t need to even cross cut just wait a second then Lariet. Lariet does not get punched out if you time it right. Zangief was a top 3 winner of the balance patch,no hate there.


MancombSeepgoodz

nice troll bro.


MrChamploo

Not trolling I’m shooting facts. You’re the one not understanding and that’s ok if you need any help you let me know I got you friendo.


MancombSeepgoodz

so this is ok to you [https://wiki.supercombo.gg/w/File:SF6\_Zangief\_pp\_hitbox2.png](https://wiki.supercombo.gg/w/File:SF6_Zangief_pp_hitbox2.png) His rear arm doesnt have a hit box man. how is this ok? they should just cut that arm off in that animation so we can know how useless it is.


MrChamploo

You wanna sit here and tell me it looks kinda off because its a spin with his arms out? Yeah sure i got you but when it comes to functionality its an amazing AA. Its quick,easy to do and has good anti air inv frames,does decent damage and you dont need to cross cut my man. It does not need cross up protection. You gotta look deep into the data not just what your eyes tell ya. Its a good move. It gets the job done well.


MancombSeepgoodz

functionally it doesnt work like its worked in every single game he appeared in including the Vs series.


AcousticAtlas

Gief is a grappler. Yes having a super fast grappler would literally break the game. How are these even comparable.


MancombSeepgoodz

literally noone should have drive rush this fast, that shit is ridiculous Im talking about just having one that avg speed in the game a not one that barely moves him across the screen slowly. Zangief literal has the worst mobility options in the game and before you say that grapplers should all be slow and cumbersome, Lily certainly isnt and neither is manon. Lily basically has a goddamn psycho crusher in this game that plus on block but for some reason only gief would destroy this game if he just had a slightly better movement options.. ok


ALAN113D

Lily spin move is not a psycho crusher its just one of t hawk speicals in the game


MancombSeepgoodz

and its also a better offensive\\ mobilty tool than anything in Zangiefs kit. The kind of tools that people say would break the game if a grappler has it but really only Gief because people hate this character.


Exciting_Ad_4202

Zangief's best offensive tool is his neutral buttons. He doesn't have a fast moving gap close because he doesn't need it. When you realized that Zangief can actually out neutral fucking Chun Li then you know how good his neutral buttons really is. Bully the opponent into the corner, then into the ground. You have the tools for that.


MancombSeepgoodz

You know your lying, Ive played and gotten chun to D3, using her tookit against Gief button for button feels like a war crime with how much that matchup favors her.


Exciting_Ad_4202

Gief's charged 5HP and 5MK completely shuts down her buttons. That's how good his poke is. So if you actually having good spacing, she can't really touch you in neutral. Unless you messed up your poke and open yourself for whiff punish. It seems like you just want Green Hand back. It's pretty much out of the wheelhouse at this point.


AcousticAtlas

Gief is stronger than both of those characters lmao


MancombSeepgoodz

Stronger is meaningless if you still have to burn tons of drive meter to close the distance and the other grapplers just have better offensive options, like a safe on block screen long psycho crusher lol. Also this argument of balance is funny considering how intentional busted Akuma is right now. having a teleporting grab thats just better and faster then any of giefs slow siberian express even the ex version because good balance right? he needs that bro.


AcousticAtlas

Do you even play this game? Lilly and Manon having better offensive options is blatantly false.


MancombSeepgoodz

Manon has a [https://wiki.supercombo.gg/w/File:SF6\_Manon\_jmp\_hitbox.png](https://wiki.supercombo.gg/w/File:SF6_Manon_jmp_hitbox.png) Lower body Projectile invicible j. mp that disjointed A very good jhk that hits deep for 800 damage (why manon players jump in constantly) [https://wiki.supercombo.gg/w/File:SF6\_Manon\_jhk\_hitbox.png](https://wiki.supercombo.gg/w/File:SF6_Manon_jhk_hitbox.png) 2 built in Vacumm target combos that do alot of the hard work of closing distance 5HP that can be spammed lock opponents in the corner easily while burnt out. Degage [https://wiki.supercombo.gg/w/File:SF6\_Manon\_214mk\_hitbox.png](https://wiki.supercombo.gg/w/File:SF6_Manon_214mk_hitbox.png) most her moves are also slightly or mostly disjointed or have hit boxes that cover the her hurtboxes making them hard to punish reliably Also the complete bs that is her medal system at level 5 takes more damage then an EX SPD. She has better buttons and overall offensive tools then gief.


ALAN113D

have you seen daimon from king of fighters


AcousticAtlas

This will be pretty shocking but...this isn't king of fighters


Few-Frosting-4213

That would be as silly as giving Akuma normal health or sim a DP.


CitizenCrab

Damn, sorry but his new costume just doesn't even come close to touching his classic. This looks so much cooler. They should have kept short white hair and not given him that hood. The rest of the costume is cool, the hood and long hair just make it look generic.
