8. Seth, from Street Fighter IV

A copycat you just want to punch in the face

What’s more exasperating than a cheap fighting game boss? How about one that copies other characters’ moves, and looks like he was designed by a lazy college student in the course of one night?

Seth is the Chief Executive Officer of Shadaloo’s weapons division, S.I.N. To complete the BLECE project – a name that strikes terror in absolutely no one – he needs to collect data about the world’s best martial artists. So he organizes an international fighting tournament for this very purpose (why he doesn’t simply hack into their Facebook accounts is a mystery).

Street Fighter IV's Seth has drastically modified his body to the point he resembles what the Silver Surfer would look like were the superhero addicted to protein shakes. Plus, Seth has this silly yin-yang basketball thing inside his stomach cavity.

As mentioned, Seth has copied several fighters’ moves, including Guile’s Sonic Boom, Zangief’s Spinning Piledriver, Ryu’s Shoryuken, and more. He does have a couple of unique attacks, such as the Tandem Stream, which sucks opponents into his stomach, before ejecting them at approximately the speed of light.

Despite his lazy design and lack of an original moveset, Seth remains one of the hardest video game villains to beat.
