Street Fighter IV Forum

Just out of curiosity how many of you who play SFIV at a high level encounter Seth players? seeing as the character is cheap as god knows what, i fail to see why anyone would want to put someone through such torture. I myself have a decent record agaisnt Seth (this morning played against a guy who used seth 6 times and beat him 4-2) but like i said is this a rairty?

i could go on and on about how much i dislike this character (including using him myself) but do you think he could be made into a good competitive character using the move set that he has now or is he far too cheap to play at a competitive level and the gentleman code of honour steps in (ala sagat & akuma)

I use Seth as kind of a 2nd alt and dont really see what you mean. Seth having such low health, his damage output not being the best, and a shit ultra is more than enough to make him not cheap. The thing about Seth is that he can have a great round then in the next one be perfected from 2 combos. It seems he just has his ups and downs. If you want to get into a character being cheap look into Sagat or Blanka. Thoughs would be better choices to bitch about.

@BoomShanka: I ran into 1 great seth player that owned me hard. He shut me down and I couldn't do anything.

I don't hate Seth players as much as I hate Ken players. For some reason I am just awful at fighting Ken players. It just feels like they are randomly jumping around shorukening every 3 seconds. I can never read them.

Seth's terrible stamina makes him an easy character to beat. I main Sakura and i've only lost to a couple of seth players.
