- The consensus on the net seems to be that Zangeif kicks Bison's
- butt. I do well with him against the few Bison players there are here
- at CMU, but I'm not convinced of this fact since I don't think the ones
- we have here are any good, and certainly not "masters". I'm not sure
- what Zangief can do to counter the scissor kick. I recently crouch
- jabbed Bison out of it, but I'm not sure if this works consistently.
- Usually I just block and try to get the SPD off or even let it hit me
- and SPD. If they try to crouch sweep or do any other ground attack
- after the scissor kick, then they're gonna be going up and coming down
- hard (most of the time at least). However, if they just jump back I
- have a lot of trouble getting it off. Is it because my timing's off or
- is it just impossible? The scissor kick is the biggest reason I'm not
- convinced that Zangeif has that much of an advantage over Bison. If the
- crouch jab stops the scissor kick consistently, then Zangief has a
- counter to just about every one of Bison's moves (scissorkick,torpedo,
- head stomp). It may take a little guessing, but if Zangief guesses
- right, then Bison can kiss one-third (approx.) of his energy goodbye.
- (BTW Is it just me or is it really fun to kick Bison's ass? :-))
