Under Night In-Birth/UNICLR/Seth

“

He wanders -- Bound by the will and governing of an ancient family, but his emotions tremor. The promise he made with a young girl shackles him, in rusty chains he strives to sever. The Night becomes a labyrinth, impeding his progress. Will he ever find the beacon he seeks?

”

Story

A young boy feared from those who know him as the "Assassin". He appears before certain power users, challenging them to duels, but no one knows why. Or, for that matter, who he is. However, the moment he heard the name, "Princess of the Night Blade", his attitude changed. His emotionless face was no longer so. Since that day, he wanders the town, searching for the princess, not on anyone's orders.

“

You ran away from your destiny once... Why return to the Hollow Night now?

”

Gameplay

Seth is a speedy glass cannon that is all about getting in by using his movement to set an orb so you can mix up your opponent using his teleports, staggers and command grabs. He plays by entirely different rules than the rest of the cast, easily putting unprepared opponents into a state of disarray.

Strengths	Weaknesses
Amazing close and mid-range normals. Extremely fast run speed. Vast repertoire of air options making him hard to pin down and extremely mobile. Actual mixups and crossups that bypass protection. Strong okizeme. Fast untechable command throw.	Ineffective at long range. Relatively high execution. Lacks conventional backdash. Limited stagger windows on many normals. No easy ways to end with frame advantage.

Cancel	Actions this move can be canceled into on hit or block, unless specially noted. N = Normal Cancelable SE = Self Cancelable SP = Special Cancelable EX = EX/IW Cancelable CS = Chain Shift UNQ = Unique (See description) TH = Throw Cancelable J = Jump Cancelable (Hit cancelable only by default) (X) = Hit cancelable only -X- = Can additionally be cancelled during whiff

Cost	The resources this move costs to use. GRD = GRD Blocks EXS = EXS Meter Vorpal = Vorpal GRD Break = Causes GRD Break
Attribute	Attributes of the attack. Mostly used in situations involving invul. There are two sets of attributes: Strike/Throw and Head/Foot/Dive/Projectile Every move has a Strike/Throw attribute, but doesn't always have Head/Foot/Dive/Projectile attribute. --- Strike = Strike (Anything that isn't a Throw is a Strike) Throw = Throw --- Head = Head (Most jump normals) Foot = Foot Dive = Some air specials Projectile = Projectile
Startup	Frame when the first hitbox is present. + denotes the frames before and after super flash.
Active	The amount of frames that this move will have a hitbox. (x) denotes frame gaps where there are no hitboxes is present. Due to varied blockstuns, (x) frames are difficult to use to determine punish windows. Generally the larger the numbers, the more time you have to punish.
Recovery	Frames that this move has after the active frames if not canceled.
Overall	Frames that this move takes from start to finish before the character returns to neutral.
Advantage	The difference in frames where you can act before your opponent when this move is blocked (assuming the move isn't canceled and the first active frame is blocked). If the opponent uses a move with startup equal or less than this move's advantage, it will result in opponent hitting that move. ±x~±x denotes a possible range of advantage. The left value is when the active frames hit sooner (generally worse) and the right value is for when the active frames hit later (generally better).
Invul	The frames where this move cannot be hit by an attribute. Full = Fully invincible Strike = Strike invincible Throw = Throw invincible Head = Head invincible Foot = Foot invincible Dive = Dive invincible Projectile = Projectile invincible

Normal Moves

Standing Normals

5A

5A	Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 170 Mid N, SP, EX, CS - - Strike Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 5 2 12 18 - 2 - Short, quick cut in front of Seth. Good hitbox for catching jumping opponents but don't expect it to outright beat anything. Short range makes a good option to whiff on reverse beat.

5B

5B	Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 415 Mid N, SP, EX, CS - - Strike Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 7 3 15 24 -4 - Seth slashes horizontally in front of him. Althought it's hitbox and active frames got a slight nerf from UNIST, 5B is still one of Seth's better buttons to throw out.

5C

5C

5C Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 350 Mid N, SP, EX, CS - - Strike Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 10 4 17 30 -9 - Seth steps forward with a downwards slash. Moves Seth forward, giving it the longest range out of all of Seth's basic ground normals. Hitbox covers Seth both in front and top of him, making it both a great poke and combo tool. 5CC Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 388 Mid SP, EX, CS - - Strike Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 4 4 21 28 -7 - Seth lunges forward again, stabbing his knife in front. Can be done on whiff, quickly covering horizontal space. Can't cancel it into other normals, reducing your options if blocked. Mainly a combo tool, or used to confirm 5C.

Crouching Normals

2A

2A	Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 140 Low N, SP, EX, CS - - Foot Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 5 2 12 18 -2 - Seth does a short kick in front of him. Seth's fastest low, great for stagger pressure. Can be chained into itself. Best option to whiff on reverse beat pressure.

2B

2B

Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 410 Low N, SP, EX, CS - - Foot Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 6 3 13 21 -2 - Seth extends forward with his knife, slashing his front. Being a low with only 6 frames of startup, with added counter hit reward and better range than 2A, make it an A normal with steroids. Great option for abare. Range is still average and can be assaulted over, or stuffed by bigger normals. Don't overuse it.

2C

2C	Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 543 Low N, SP, EX, CS - - Foot Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 8 2(2)2 17 30 -1 - Seth sweeps ahead of him in a windmill, supporting himself with his hands. Sweep that hits low twice. Allowing you to cancel in any of the two hits. Very safe on block, both on hit and rebeat.

Air Normals

j.A

j.A	Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 140 High, Air Shield N, SP, EX, CS - - Strike, Head Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 8 4 12(2) 23 Varies - Seth extends his leg for a downwards kick. If done early in a jump, Seth can still do other aerial actions after it.

j.B

j.B	Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 410 High, Air Shield N, SP, EX, CS - - Strike, Head Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 10 3 18(3) 30 Varies - Seth slashes around him with both of his knifes. Covers both in front and behind him.

j.C

j.C	Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 510 High, Air Shield N, SP, EX, CS - - Strike, Head Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 12 3 18(4) - Varies - Seth does a somersault, slashing under him with both of his knifes. Good vertical hitbox for air-to-ground attacks after jumps or assault.

Command Normals

6C

6C	Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 600 High SP, EX, CS - - Strike Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 28 1 16 44 -6 Foot Invul frames 15~28 Seth turns and jumps forward with an axe kick. Predictable overhead due to Seth's jump animation. Can be cancelled into aerial movement and specials. Most common ender in order to set up orb oki.

3B

3B	Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 430 Mid SP, EX, CS - - Strike Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 10 4 18 31 -4 Head Invul frames 8~13 Seth turns his back to the opponent and stabs over his shoulder. Can be used to anti air, but has a worst hitbox and reward than 3C. Less commitment than 3C due to better advantage (still minus) and recovery frames.

3C

3C	Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 590 Mid SP, EX, CS - - Strike Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 10 3 27 39 -12 Head Invul frames 8~12 Seth steps up with an uppercut slash. Seth's best anti air hitbox, with great reward on hit. Launches the opponent on hit. Can be rebeated into 2A for counter hit confirms.

j.6C

j.6C	Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 510 High, Air Shield SP, EX, CS - - Head Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 26 6 17 44 -9 - Same axe kick as 6C, but moves Seth further ahead. Worst ender than 6C, leaving you less time to set up orb oki and meaty. Mostly a combo tool after Fastfall Kick.

j.2C

j.2C

Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 420 Mid, Air SP, EX, CS - - Head Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 9 Until landing (13) 22 -1 - Seth extends his leg and falls down with a divekick. Fairly safe. Seth bounces off the opponent after connecting with it. Seth can do air movements and attacks after the bounce. Seth's air movement after the hit can be influenced with 4 or 6 too.

j.22

Rapid Descent 急降下 j.22/j.2A+B	Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute - - - - - - Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul - - - 12 - - Seth, in a blur, drops quickly straight down to the ground. Fastfall, done as a movement option, for mixups or as a combo tool. Has recovery after the fall, making it a risky option up close.

j.22~6X

Rapid Descent (Follow-up) 急降下(追加入力) j.22~6X

Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute - - - - - - Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 16 - - - -7 - Seth teleports to the other side of his opponent and launched them with a kick. Kick followup can only be done at a certain range, which is extended if Seth has vorpal. If outside of the rage, Seth's fastfall recovery greatly increases. If the opponent is in the corner, Seth remains on the same side he started the fastfall. If used as a pressure tool, Seth's cancel options are limited as you can't cancel into normals.

j.22~4X

Rapid Descent (Follow-up 2) 急降下(追加入力) j.22~4X	Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute - - - - - - Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul - - - 16 (23) - - New fast fall followup added in UNICLR; although the animation is similar to 214X~A, it lacks a parry hitbox and Seth can be hit during the move startup.

j.44

Air Backdash 空中バックダッシュ j.44

Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute - - - - - - Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul - - (22) - - - Seth does a backflip in the air into a cannonball, dashing backwards. Can be cancelled into movement options such as fastfall and assault, as well as special/EX moves. After the backdash, Seth's air movement can be influenced with 4 or 6, as he does the cannonball. If done high enough, Seth can still use normals after the backdash.

Usable only during blockstun. Generally better to use while in Vorpal as it's faster and costs less resources.

Veil Off

Veil Off ヴェールオフ A+B+C

A+B+C Normal Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 0 Mid, Air - Launch, Wall Bounce, GRD Break 100+ EXS Strike Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 20 2 [7 (3 on hit) on landing] 58 (54 on hit) -13 1~30 Full A+B+C Full Charge Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 0 Mid, Air - Launch, Wall Bounce, GRD Break 100+ EXS Strike Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 68 2 [7 (2 on hit) on landing] 108 (103 on hit) -14 1~91 Full Universal reversal that blows the opponent back on hit. Airborne: 1~52, Standing: 53~59. For Full Charge version: Airborne: 1~101, Standing: 102~108. Requires at least 100 meter and puts you in Veil Off state which grants 20% more damage, but drains your meter at a slow rate. Meter drains much slower when health is below 30% (orange health). You can hold down A+B+C to delay activation and gain a few extra benefits, but doing so is highly unrecommended unless trying to run the clock as this move already has a long start up as is. A+B+C Cross Cast Damage Guard Cancel Property Cost Attribute 0 Mid, Air - Launch 100+ EXS, Vorpal Strike Startup Active Recovery Overall Advantage Invul 2 4 20 25 +3 1~19 Full Cancels an action and launches the opponent high into the air on hit. Airborne: 1~25. CVO cancel is treated the same as EX cancel, you can only CVO when you can EX and the opponent is in hit/blockstun. Including in the air. Requires at least 100 meter and consumes vorpal state and drains meter at a fast rate. Has a lot of hitstun, making it easy to combo from. Grants an additional bounce if both have been used in the combo so far. If the opponent does end up hitting the ground during the combo, damage is prorated. Pressing A+B+C can be used for a shortcut for Infinite Worth. Used mostly as a way to tack on extra damage, or to reliably close out the round.

In addition, it also has a bit more recovery should it whiff.

Must have less than 30% health (orange health) to use. After the cinematic, characters will be moved to the middle of the stage, regardless of where they were positioned before. Due to the cost, it is usually not recommended to use this move unless it will kill the opponent.
