How do you fight Sentinel?

Scrub talk. Tips, please.

:sad:

They have a million threads in this forum. Just go in then and Search threads through the beginning.

please use the search funtion.

We need to seriously make a Top Tier Combos, and Match up Thread to end threads like these. A good example would be the project they were doing on Video-Opera.

Hell yeah, i love sentinel, and delivering a technological ass-whopping to other players using him.

He is such a badass and imposing character, plus deceptively fast. Some make the mistake of thinking he is slow but once sent gets in their face, launching kicks and rocket-punches everywhere, they are soon corrected.

Sentinel is weak in close-range, and weak with PROJECTILES. BB.Hood’s shooting super for example, damages him pretty bad if connected.

Plus sent is so big that EVERY bullet hits him. Same for chip damage.

At my arcade there is a good guile/megaman/BB.hood player. He’ll wait till all 5 meters are charged, then unleash the 3-supers attack, and then his remaining 2 meters. Even if i end up blocking it, my sentinel still sustains QUITE A BIT of chip damage. Especially useful when sentinel is low on life.

Also the snap-back. If you can, snap sent out. Unless you’re against an ADVANCED player, sentinel by himself with no assist help can be pretty vulnerable to a close-range gang-up.

Sentinel is broken, he always has a way of beating everyone. Sentinel alone IS Marvel. GGPO

Not really. The other god characters like storm have him beat IMO.

Snakes right. the robot kills teams. he does not give a fuck that he’s flyin solo, he’s got 200% health and death patterns with the unblockable.

he’s better than storm for dmg output, unblockable is so damn crucial if you land a ground hit near the corner, carry them to the wall with another super and game over

if you can execute :clap:

You make it sound like its hopeless, Mixup. Unless all dann plays against are god-tier tournament-level guys, I think NOT.

Every character can be beaten…

umm, last time i checked sentinel is the best player in the game. super armor, TWO great assists (how often does somebody have two GREAt assists?), he does REAL good damage, the fastest fly, perfected fast flying will keep you pinned down the ENTIRE game if you dont have an anti-air, projectiles as normals that are cancellable, unblockables, guard breaks, incredible reach, one of the best DHC’s, can combo after a dhc. yes he’s broken and if he’s beaten, its because he’s beaten by a better player not a better character.

a full sentinel is still a match. Its not over.

snake is right, that damn robot is mvc2.

you’ve obviously never played the average sentinels that frequent popular arcades… the average sentinels at chinatown fair are fucking blazing… same goes for u.pinball, and i’m sure the same can probably be said about Family in Cali… Seriously, Sentinel is so fucking easy to use, that in average level play, aka NOT with top players, solo Sent can still hold a fight down against a whole team.

“He’ll find you! Its what he does, its all he does! He’ll never stop till your life bar is gone. No more quarters. Game over man, game over!”

SRK Police: “relax theres no such thing as SRK member-hunting robots. You’ll be safe here.”

later on in the night, sudden noise. SRK cops scramble, firing weapons

Sentinel with shades on: “Rocket-Punch…Rocket Punch!”

Yaaaaaahhhh!!! SRK guards go flying

Sent continues rampage in SRK police station

…the fuck? diaf

From what i hear storm is the BEST, cheapest character, etc. But i guess thats only in my arcade…

So out of the “4 gods”…you think sentinel is the toughest? i dunno…

… when did I say that? cheapest? you really do suck at MvC2… Great…

It’s more or less a toss-up between the two. Storm wins on priority, Sentinel wins on everything else. Sentinel can’t run away as safely as storm can without an assist. Sentinel also can’t rush down as effectively as a storm can either. However, solo Sentinel can do much more damage upon getting a hit than storm can.

There is no God tier, Sentinel is God and the other 3 are his little angels

You should already know yourself if you’re good, not from “what you hear”

Everyone just listed the facts. Super armor, reach, 100%'s, unblockable, fastest flymode, godly damage, in and out game, fast snap out, very fast dash, good chip damage, glitched tag in, etc.

Storm is arguably up there with him because she can fight the other tops really well and she can SOMETIMES beat Sentinel in some situations. But the average storm vs the average sentinel is in sent’s favor big time. I think with he counters her. All the player has to do is take their time. Storm, just plain and simple is at more of a risk.

I never said you said that, just thats what i’d heard from some players. That storm is best of the 4.

I don’t recall saying i was “GOOD” at the game. I’m ‘ok’ i guess.

And i rarely, EVER play storm, so i have no idea from a storm player’s perspective, how good she is exactly against sentinel.

you said… “you”… meaning, ME, since you quoted me… GOOD FUCKING JOB AT ENGLISH!

Ok, a little misunderstanding on my part then:smile:
