After countless times fighting him, I figured out his patterns and weaknesses are....

1) Sonicbooms - Cancel with your fireballs, or just do a short jump if you don't have one. Be careful of EX version, as he shoots out 2 instead of one Sonicbooms.

2) The long arms - Block (it does not cause damage) or if you're daring enough, do a quick foward HK jump on him.

3) Tyrant Slaughter (the shoulder charge) - That thing is WEAK LIKE HELL. If you block it, he's in trouble as it has a long (and I mean LONG) recovery. If he does the EX version, block it and get ready to pummel him with a Super / Ultra.

4) Wall jump - When he does that, block high - he always try to hit you with a jumping punch.

5) Triple air steps (something like Chun-Li's air stomp) - Just block high. Never block low.

6) The "absorption" thing - This move cannot "catch" you when you're in the air, so jumpkick him when he does this move.

7) Teleport - If he teleports right beside you, JUMP UPWARD and do a HK. He'll always do the Piledriver right after reappearing beside you.

8) Piledriver - NEVER, EVER LET HIM GET BESIDE YOU AT ALL TIMES. If he tries the Teleport > Piledriver technique, do a UPWARD JUMP and HK. At least you have a 50% chance to hit Seth out of his Shoryuken with the HK rather than lose a chunk of your life with this (uncountable?) move.

9) Shoryuken - No real tip on how to counter / defeat this move; the best way to avoid it is by not jumping into his Shoryuken range.

10) The multiple kicks move - Has very short range. Just block. Beware EX version, as he will do the initial kick TWICE.

11) Super / Ultra - This move only hits you ON THE GROUND (as far as I remember, I was never hit by this move when in the air). If you are landing from a jump, and he does the Super / Ultra, just press and hold Back (block) and this move will not be able to harm you.

Hope the above tips help.

actually after using seth, his hyakuretsu kick isn't that short as one may think.

its pretty decent and can be very unexpecting.

Dunno about his super, but his ultra can and will swipe you out of the air.

it only swipes you in the air if you're in mid air while he starts it. they guy up top is right. if you're on the ground and he starts the Ultra (and the close-up animation starts) hold UP to jump out of the way when the screen goes back to normal. Also a good tip is that Seth uses the ultra when his health is at 40% or lower. When his health is low like that, be ready for it.

You think Seth is bad? wait till you get to stage four of Survival Hard. No Life bars showing. No Gauges at all showing. Computer is constantly regaining lost Ultra. Then tack on the fact Cammy is a WHORE.
