Seth Video Thread

Congrats!

Damn my Seth sucks.

^:rofl:

sup robg we played a few Seth mirrors last night in endless. think we both won a game before I left, the connection was getting too laggy.

I agree…why do Capcom think he needs another nerf?
As if he needed another… :lame:

Taking everything away from Seth what makes him Seth.

Unless his defense goes way up and his damage output increases ( Or Steal the new fighters moves)
He will be a waste of time :chainsaw:

Kata-nun…I have to borrow that avatar .

Arturo using seth right now

what match up did he bust Seth out for? and how’d he do? I must have missed it, they’re streaming some MvC2 now

edit fucking right Art just blew up Henry 3-0 with Seth

some vids from the last tournament on friday. salty i got 3rd since i should have prob won but w.e. i cant believe that the low forward didnt trip guard in LF. i was hammered this whole tourney though. i made a nice comeback against a honda at one point with seth. mix of seth and blanka mainly.

Been playing around with various ways of displaying input for the upcoming Seth video guide I’m making, could some fellow Seth players please tell me what they think of this:

[media=youtube]fsyvq8t_HGY[/media]

It’s a lot of effort to do, so I’m wondering if it:

a) looks alright
b) is worth it, as opposed to just printing the move’s on the screen
c) is useful enough to warrant the time it’s going to take to sync an entire video with it

edit: fyi I’d be fairly happy with “No, it’s not useful and looks terrible”, would save me some time - but I would take the time if the general consensus is it would be useful =).

In my opinion while it’s a nice effort (would be better to use different colours though) the main thing that’s missing is the history you get with S4’s normal input showing, where you can just pause the vid and see what you have done so far. Now when you pause the vid you can only see what you’re doing at that exact point.

EDIT: Also it’s hard to look at your inputs AND what it’s supposed to look like in game at the same time, so while i as a Seth player can look at either and “see what you did there” it would probably be better for people who are new to Seth to read how the combo should go/be able to look at the whole history in order to learn stuff from it.

Cheers for the input Novastorm.

Yeah, colours are actually meant to be red, just that was a quick render I did for people to get a general idea, here’s a better idea of what it might look like in the end ([media=youtube]5ks4ohFV8aU[/media]), just needs to be repositioned/resized a bit.

I was wondering whether display inputs on would be a better idea, but I only have an SD capture card so the inputs look pixelated, and I would like to end up with a nice looking video in the end (youtube video is just a random Seth clip atm, final quality will be better than that and without combo data - which suffers from the same SD problem; it’s blurry and hard to read). Display inputs doesn’t show negative edging either though, and it’s more subtleties like that I wish to show than the standard inputs which I’m sure (generally) people can work out for themselves.

…or I could always just not have any form of input display and annotate any specific execution tips.

I like the way you have the video setup with the stick and button layout. It’s all up to you if you want to put in the effort to do all of it though. What is the video guide going to consist of? Match up tips/Punishes, Combos, Mix ups, all of the above? Is this a collaboration of info on SRK or is it just your input?

Nothing matchup specific, just everything someone wanting to pick up Seth should know, so pokes, blockstrings, resets, options on reset, punishes etc. I’m wanting to do something similar to djb13’s advanced play guides or the option-select character guides.

It’s mainly going to be play by numbers stuff so your last question is a bit irrelevant I think. With the exception of a few setups I may throw in etc, the information listed couldn’t be anything else without being incorrect.

I may put up text I’ve written up listing chronologically what will be in the video (not yet complete) before actually doing much editing though, so if anyone feels I’ve missed out something important or don’t like something they can contribute their input.

I don’t know Hawkins, I think Novastorm said it right, you can’t really see what the combo started with if you pause the video, and honestly, I generally juat pay attention to the combo itself. Even in BiffofTasty’s “hand” videos, I dont really give a damn and just look at all the pretty combos being executed.

Besides, if you know the move set, you dont really need to see the stick doing the motions.

Well since you’re already putting in a lot of effort, why not just replicate the input display yourself, that way you can create your own icon for negative edge (like go to photoshop, edit the standard HP icon with a negative filter/effect, voila, an icon for negative edging HP)?

Does cr.hp-j.mp-dp work on all characters?

No, it whiffs sometimes on cammy, and it always whiffs onsagat. That I know of.

It’s a shitty combo, why would you care? If you’re going to use meter do cr.hp xx EX Tanden -> cr.hp xx lp SRK -> stomps.

But it doesn’t use meter :<

It is a shitty combo though.
