Description[]
Seth sucking in his opponent using his Tenden Engine special attack
Executed by performing a quarter-circle backward motion and pressing punch, Seth brings his hands together in front of his abdomen and generates a miniature black hole which sucks the opponent towards him. Its effective range (how close the opponent needs to be for the "gravity" to affect them) depends on the punch button used.
The EX Special version requires two segments of the Super Combo Gauge instead of the usual one, a distinction shared with Vega's Remove Claw/Mask (and other new attacks in OMEGA Mode). In OMEGA Mode, the input was changed to a reverse-Shoryuken motion and pressing punch.
Tactics[]
The attack itself does no damage, but is intended to throw the opponent off balance, creating an opening to initiate a damaging attack or combo.
