From the moment I first saw Street Fighter 4, I took a liking to seth. Once I finally got an xbox, then soon after Super Street Fighter 4, I picked him up immediately. Seth's been my definitive man for probably going on a year now, and I've learned plenty of mean tricks. I use alot of the stuff in the video actually, so this is a pretty good tutorial. The only thing that suprised me was when you followed Cr. hp with Cr. hp in the corner. Learning new tricks every day!
Nice video. I think another good tip...for SF in general, is to always st. lp if you are hit confirming on a standing oppenent for the extra frame advantage of your cr. mp before going into legs
by visual cues, when you hit the lightning legs hold down and memorize how long it takes for seth to recover, then do the legs again and this time hold up forward as soon as seth starts to jump press down and medium kick simultaneously
Awesome vid. I'm going to try and learn Seth pretty late in the game. My Dudley can only do so much :( love all of the resets and mix ups. Seth is a beast
In the recent update they made it much harder to pull off, but once you get the hang of it its easy. I usually hold up-right while the kicks are hitting then switch to down at a certain time just out of instinct. Although you have to watch out with some characters like cammy where you have to walk forward for a few frames to get a good hit. Be sure to be timing your kicks now or else you probably won't get all three hits into dive.
@chiibiROXAS Yeah that part I kinda messed up on. When you are doing that combo without a focus you just do cr.lp, st.hp. If you do get a focus use a light tanden then do the combo. They are usual to far away for it to connect.
I usually hold back when jabbing, that way in-case a shoryuken comes out I am blocking, then when I feel comfortable with my mixup I will go for down back to down to down forward to up at the top right of the joystick.
great video, really helped me work on my seth. I was wondering did you have trouble doing seths dive kick when you were new with him? im having trouble with the timing.
@zack19891 Well if you want to get a short wall jump you have to be rubbing against the wall. If you are a bit out of mid screen and jump back when you reach the wall you will be at a maximum high in your jump.
The Tanden Engine is really useful I think. Cancel a blocked st.HP or cr.HP into LP Tanden, and you get a free combo if they fail to block that. If they do block it you can set up a tick throw, SPD, SRK FADC, etc. It's also useful against fireballs if timed correctly. Depending on the situation the HP one is useful to. I like to continually mess with my opponent's spacing to set up my own plans.
@chiibiROXAS The only thing really to be more careful about is his jumping heavy crossup. The range on it has been reduced and makes it more difficult to hit. I would also avoid doing the shoryuken bait, unless you are very good at jumping off the wall at the correct position to actually avoid a shoryuken that has a huge hitbox and to punish it.
Unfortunately they made it in the most recent version that Seth's kicks have specific timing on every situation and characters. For example in the corner after legs, it is very hard to combo the hop-kicks on like Juri, and Cammy and a bunch of others. With the elbow + shoryuken its also impossible I think on characters like Cody. You just have to practice a lot and get use to the new timing, like stalling certain kicks to fall more and catch up to the opponent.
how do you follow up all those moves with headstomps in the air, once i pop people up i can never jump into the air and do headstomps fast enough, and when i do it looks like the stomps go right through them and dont count...
@Enjoyrastapanda7 so u mean,if seth is in corner already if wall jump i get short jump and seth reaches to the corner while jumping back then he will jump higher,it will be very handy,thanks alot.
the wall jump u showed was not so high the one i get is a very high one which can even go above akuma's ex air fireballs some times and thus i can even get hit by dp on dive kick as well,any idea how to get tht short wall jump......
you're probably playing on pad where it's usually easier to use triples for EX moves. a trick you can do for that (if you're using the default setup on a pad) is if you press square and R1 or triangle and R1 together for the EX. That way you don't have to twist your hand around to make that weird position to hit square and triangle together for the EX.
@Enjoyrastapanda7 thanks for the quick reply..... I haven't fully watched this video but theres one section where you do (im a tekken junkie so idk about ssf4 terms) .... cr.lk, st.lp, st.hp, sonic boom, fadc ...repeat ... is that still possible? maybe my input sucks but everytime I do st.hp I do his long ranged move.
@Thegamekid83 Well its very simple, ill list it in steps. 1. Shoryuken 2.On the first hit of the shoryuken press your focus button(s) 3. dash either forward or back (in this case forward) 4. neutral jump and press down medium kicks and end with a delayed down heavy kick. If you are still having trouble re-comment and ill try and help you as best as I can.
it's normally fine to use triple for most chars but if you use chars like akuma/seth/dhalsim.... zangief in some situations, you may get something you didnt mean to do
how do you cancel the shoryuken into yosokyaku?? You didnt state it in the video and im kind of new to street fighter so im not entirely sure on how to do that.
Hey Enjoyrastapanda7, I just started playing Seth again and I can't do his hop-kicks anymore, I can only get two of them, is there a strict timing for the third one?
your wrong my bro, tanden engine is very useful if u are clever, it could be used after engine shoryken cancel or grab it could punch while enemies jump toward u
Really nice ! i will get a lot more exp with these tips :) btw when im trying to do a ex shoryuken it becomes teleport, its the same input right? anyone knows how to do a clean ex shoryuken so it dont become a teleport? :D
Very inspiring, want to work on it now... i'm not good at SF4 at all, but I like it a lot.. just gotta practise. Message me if you got the time to teach a newbie :)
@Enjoyrastapanda7 omg thank you very much :) this actually helped me out tons and i hope to make my seth a lot better :) once again thanks and keep up the good word!

My left ear really liked this video. Thanks.
lol
@blazer4328 Thanks, and your Seth flashy combo video has to be my favorite Seth combo video of all time. Great combos.
by visual cues, when you hit the lightning legs hold down and memorize how long it takes for seth to recover, then do the legs again and this time hold up forward as soon as seth starts to jump press down and medium kick simultaneously
@Porkincarnate spin kicks is down back any kick, stomps is up-forward then when airborne down-medium kick.

great tutorial video, man. it's very informative. so are you gonna stick with Seth in AE?

Hey man awesome vid id just like to ask how do you input the command grab while your poking an opponent during block stun? thanks
People keep in mind that if you land a crumple focus attack or if you use tanden engine you can do cr.lk > cr.lp > st.hp > shoryuken/hyakuretsu/etc.

Hey can you explain how to do the dp into the river dance thing (jump down mk and arc hk). I can't seen to get it right... thanks!

You might want to do cr.LK cr.LP (instead of cl.LP) into cl.HP because cl.LP misses on Blanka (dunno if even more)
@antzenpro3 not sure what you are referring too
how do you do Yosokyaku when you do the tornado kick? because every time i do the tornado kick it won't let me jump to you Yosokyaku please reply ASAP
@Thegamekid83 Well its very simple, ill list it in steps. 1. Shoryuken 2.On the first hit of the shoryuken press your focus button(s) 3. dash either forward or back (in this case forward) 4. neutral jump and press down medium kicks and end with a delayed down heavy kick.

thanks for vid..i am having issues with the sonic boom fadc combo :( any tips?
Please tell me the timing for Strong Punch into Sonic Boom
Hey Enjoyrastapanda7, I just started playing Seth again and I can't do his hop-kicks anymore, I can only get two of them, is there a strict timing for the third one?
good shit. seth is my scrub killer :D so i needed this. thanks a bunch.
How do you do spin kick and head stomp at corner? Can someone tell me how? Im totally clueless. Thanks :)
Sick as fuck, picked up sf4 this christmas, seth is tons as fun. Ty for the vid!
@ICEM0NK are you using all 3 punches to do an ex shoryuken?
i got a prob to do a yosokyaku quickly after jumping. any tip ?
@MeganMoriyama yea madkatz are high quality sticks and they are cheap. The tourny editions will give you the most for your money.
one question ... does anything change now since this is AE 2012? i noticed you posted this in 2010
how do you unlock that costume for seth?
@jrosh33....they do it to build meter
@juju52291 Yes I will, I am taking him to CEO and EVO (Ganna get bodied in both).
those 2 last combos! :D nice!
Thanks man this helped a lot!
what costume is that?
I meant two light pokes then a command grab by seth not dp
your wrong my bro, tanden engine is very useful if u are clever, it could be used after engine shoryken cancel or grab it could punch while enemies jump toward u
Good tutorial.
@jbuchanan10 Yea I prefer Xbox over ps3 any day. Hows the PSN treating ya lol jk hope its back up soon or if its up already glad to see its back up.

Very inspiring, want to work on it now... i'm not good at SF4 at all, but I like it a lot.. just gotta practise. Message me if you got the time to teach a newbie :)
