I'm trying really hard not to hate Bison the way I hate SF4 Bison, but man does that guy feel like the closest to "unfair" / broken of the cast to me so far. Does anybody here not have any trouble against Bison? Pretty much everything he does is safe. You can't jump at him because of his almost instant A2A attacks, his V-trigger is just disgusting, and for someone with supposedly poor throw range his grab rate against me has got to be above 50% because he doesn't even do a grab animation (unless he whiffs). He's standing there what looks to be well outside of throw range and all of a sudden I'm spinning in the air. Ok, learn to anticipate the psychic throw, sure. But then you add in how safe and how damaging his pressure is, how long the combos are, the ambiguous stuff that he's always had, the fact he's "not safe" after scissors but he really still is because he's outside of punish range,... it's getting to me a little bit. I know most of it is matchup experience, but I can't even think of a character I'd put in the same class as far as how hard I have to work to just stay in the match. Meanwhile the opponent is over there pressing buttons.
A couple of related questions: Can he control where his EX/V-trigger devils reverse goes (as far as P1 side / P2 side)? What move of his can you actually crush counter on block?
