I’ve played Seth since Vanilla.
I am totally done with the character. Everything I loved about him is gone.
how? he is still a pretty big threat to almost the whole cast.
I think he ranks up their with M. Bison as one of the most dangerous characters.
SPD was only good because of the setup and the stun. They reduced both of those.
His only good way to continue pressure, tanden cancel, is gone.
His only way to make people respect his offense, SRK FADC, is now unsafe and will not beat most reversals cleanly. His slow walk speed makes it so that his offense is very linear and fairly predictable, but still as unsafe as ever.
His ultra can still trade with projectiles, they didn’t fix the EX Tanden bug, and now his low health is too much of a liablity to ignore.
You can delayed wakeup the crossup sonic boom setup after his ultra, which was half of his comeback potential.
well honestly I play him and still enjoy tearing up practically the whole cast. considering seth is so fast so what if his walk speed is trash his bd and fd are both pretty good unless you can’t double dash cuz ur wrist is weak or something. Both his ultras still serve purpose and even more npoow that u can use both at the same time the utility makes up for raw damage. I still can get away with srk fadc shenanigans just gotta be safer now is all. people need to learn the new seth and stop playing him like he was the old seth he needs a safer player now that knows when its worth it to guard/attack.
seth forums rip
Spoiler
well they were dead already
Seriously if you think Seth sucks, you have problems with understanding how to use him. If you keep on using any character the same way while the character has been changed, of course you are not going to get your intended results with said character. It like saying that a Ferrari sucks and it’s slow because you don’t know how to drive it after the settings have been tweaked for a certain driving style. It’s not the car that is slow, you are the one that is slow since you are driving it wrong.
Nobody’s saying Seth sucks.
So? It doesn’t matter if they don’t say it since people keep on implying it.
I am. There’s no reason to play him over Yun now in my mind.
He is a shell of his former selves and I do not find this ever stripped down play-style fun anymore. If you understand the match-up it is going to be even easier to take him down. Most of his offence is laughably linear without the threat of tanden cancels, srk fadc, and spd j.rh setups.
What makes you think Bison is so dangerous? Only curious bc my main/sub Bison with Seth.
Seth is surprisingly good in Ultra, more honest character. I have been playing him since Vanilla and I like him most in Ultra. I like his dmg buff, new c.mp,s.hp combo, stomps, safer far s.hp, wall jump etc and I was afraid that I can’t hit confirm s.hp after crossup j.mk because of less hitstun but I was wrong, it is as easy as before. Losing some invi from dp is hurting. I was used to do dp as soon as opponent jumps, now I have to time it and it usually trades or get stunned cleanly. 
Because he is fast, easy to use, and is able to punish severely when people fuck up. He is also highly mobile, does meaty damage without the need for combos. He is like Seth in a sense.
Here is a video of my M. Bison:

Anybody that heavily relies on combos are destined to suck with Seth. A really good fighting game player relies on fundamentals like zoning. Combos are secondary things when it comes to causing damage. It is not about hitting the opponent as many times as you can with a combo, it is about causing meaty damage with any amount of hits within the shortest possible amount time.
The good thing about Seth is that he can cause a great deal of confusion and frustration with his mobility with his opponents. You people must take advantage of his mobility to truly experience his potential.
You are not helping your case with those videos.
How about you challenge me and stop being an armchair fighter? Do you want to play Endless? Or will you run from me?
With Seth, my win ratio is over 50 percent (This is just an estimate/guess). I’m not saying I am Supreme in this game, but I am somewhat good. Challenge me and try to prove your theories right.
I’ll play you message me ur xbl gt. I think your seth is not ok definitely need work you don’t play him right. you don’t hit confirm with seth how do you expect to not die with him? as well as combos are needed like how do you expect to win when your punishment to their mistake is st.mp and theirs is like a long fadc combo to the corner where your obvious reaction would be uppercut by then your dead
Yeah, it’s just okay. I have only been playing Seth for less than year. Yeah, I have a good amount to learn. I would play you, but I’m on PSN. My Seth in those videos look really basic since I am mainly using pokes, zoning, and throws, and throwing off people’s timing with feints. I use feints to bait people all over the place. I am pretty much using him like a SFII character. I can be more destructive and cool looking with combos, yes, but that really depends on the situation.
Also, my play style is mainly reactionary and intuitive. I am almost never thinking about any plan of attack other than destroying you in any way I can.
If you are near Super Arcade, maybe I can play against you in person.
Dude, you are ass. You didn’t even do a hit-confirm or anti-air uppercut. Your zoning is awful, you get hit by random stuff. You don’t use the right pokes at the right ranges, and you jump ALL THE TIME.
My PSN is MagmaFisher. Add me and I’ll play you.
I just added you. Now lets fight.
