My Magneto/Psylocke vs. your sentinel capcom

Philth · February 4, 2005, 3:39am

137 (and counting) - 1

LyNkS · February 4, 2005, 6:07am

4-2…not bad for me huh…i’ll get those wins back

fishjie · February 4, 2005, 7:39am

mummy only hits if sentinel is flying. he can just unfly. then crouching fierce. fierce all day every day and maybe throw in a few drones. the laser owns up commando so badly its horrible.

and there is no way in hell a sentinel player is going to get caught by corridor into sword. if anything theyll intentionally try to bait it out so you can whiff and eat horrible punish.

Nuh-uh.

Why fly? Just fierce. Fierce all day. It beats all of commanho’s slow attacks. Just stay a full screen away and fierce. Occasionally cancel the fierce into drones if you feel like it. If commando jumps in then pushblock and keep fiercing. Or dash under and launch him if you’re in position to do so.

Sent vs Cap 1on1 is like 10/0. Unwinnable.

Cyke vs Cap is a pretty ugly fight too. Just fierce, build meter, chip, and df.hk vs jump ins.

Commando sucks.

At low-level scrub play Sent wins for free. At a high-level however it’s a pretty tough fight for Sent. If the Mag player is patient but won’t hesitate to attack an opening then Sent is in trouble, since it’s very likely that Mag will get that one hit and that’s all he needs. 6/4 sounds about right.

Mag vs Sent 1on1 is complete slaughter. The Mag player wins even if the Sent player is better overall. This match is about 8/2 in Mag’s favor unless the Sent player is sitting on a huge lead.

I’ve beaten sent. with commando. Commando desn’t suck. It’s just what u do to sent is all that matters…

Whos sent my i ask?

The_Matrix367 · February 4, 2005, 11:10am

Man getting in is not the hard part. Its staying in safely.

LOL too tru

The Matrix367:

DOOOOOOOO!!! What the fuck can sent really do to cable if he just sits there and blocks everything. While one random assist by cable and sent gets smoked. I play alot of cable right now, and I will tell you I get to play against the best sentinel in the world(Sanford Kelly’s). It is not hard to smoke sentinel. Sent cannot do shit about cable’s jab. He gets jabbed out of everything. If cable is in the corner DOOOO just block and wait to super jump out or wave dash under sent. He can’t really “rush you down with some hard to block shit”. Cable does not have to rely on his assist. He does not have to call first at all. Cable can also KILL assist with 2 levels(exept drones). Cable owns sent freeeeeeee. Even if he does not have a good aaa and sent does. Sent can do well but all he need is a random shot and all that hard work goes down the drain. Then you only have one character left cause you had to sacrifice a character to use the best assist to fight cable with which is capcom. while cable is not really losing out that much cause he has 2 other characters left. If cable did not own sent then storm sent teams would just dominate the whole game.

As for magneto vs. sent, its 60/40 in mags favor. Nowadays niggas get touched anywhere on the screen and that nigga is done. I find so ironic that sent has the most life in the game but yet he gets 100% so easily by mag and cable.

yeah you’re right, I’ve only really been playing the game for about 4 months now so I dont really know too much about counter matchups. I’ll make sure to play you at ECCX, I could surely learn a few things from you :tup:

Yall nice

System_1 · February 4, 2005, 10:38pm

I know you’ve had it for a while, but that av is gangster.

System_1 · February 5, 2005, 12:29am

Excuse me, but I’ve played this match enough times to know what can and cannot be done. Laser does not work on Commando, you just jump over it, whee now I get to put an electric glove in your face, thanks. Gets worse if i have Sentinel cuz I get to superjump for free. Throw in drones and you get sworded for free.

And please don’t even start with the unblockable shit, unless you are fucking Neo you’re not going to get it.

System_1 · February 5, 2005, 1:12am

Do you even believe the bullshit you type? Jump over laser. Wow, that’s great why didn’t I think of that. Now I just have to find some sentinels that are dumb enough to just stand there in recovery. If commando jumps over the laser all they have to do is cancel into drones or fly back and we’re back to square one. It could’ve been a different story if he had an air dash or dj but he doesn’t so he can’t even get past a dumb trap like that.

Commando w/ assists may stand a chance but commando vs sent 1 on 1 is un-fucking-winnable. Plain and simple.

Remix1213 · February 5, 2005, 1:52am

Dont forget to jump over ice beam while ur at it. :tup:

fishjie · February 5, 2005, 2:17am

laser can be cancelled into fly. take it from there

white_shadow · February 5, 2005, 2:54am

I’ve killed [decent] Sent’s with Commando with mostly chip damage before. It’s hard but not impossible. Mummy and Ninja block strings from C.LK, C.LK, C.FP chip and I’ve occasionally guardbroken Sent from the Mummy into S.HK, Capt. Corridor XX Cap’n Sword.

If you actually treat Capcom like a character and not just a assist that dies for free he can work wonders. :bgrin: Maybe because I’ve played with him since MVC2 debut when he was just Capcom the helpful character. lol :razzy:

Rogue/Sent/Capcom 4 LYPHE!!!

fishjie:

and for the commando versus cable stuff, imo cable is not really all that good one on one. he doesnt have a very good anti air option like the other characters. he doesnt really have a good answer to commandos jump in fierce. commandos air throw beats out cables air throw. commando can also safely execute c. lk c. lk ninja as a chip and pressure string (the ninja will hit if cable tries to do anything). if the lk connect, then combo into c. fierce qcf + 2 kick super. or combo into c. lk c. fierce captain fire.

as for commando, i can see he comes at a disadvantage because his captain sword often whiffs on cable, doing no damage, and he can’t do captain fire, and he can’t call out the mummy very often either, and he can’t do standing fierce that often either as well. but he has access to the rest of his moves.

i mean if cable tries to keep commando away, he cant cover the whole screen. if cable super jumps, then wave dash over. if cable stays on the ground, then super jump over.

I agree with most of what you said…But i don’t believe that Commando dies TOO badly against Sent.

**DemiSe:**I have nothing against you, man and i respect your skills, but you can’t go around saying a character sux just because you most likely suck at using him. Also, I think you should listen to a little bit of what Dasrik has to say because he is a VERY GOOD Commando user. Heck, even Genghis learned Commando strats from him :wow:

Please view the this page of this thread: http://www.shoryuken.com/forums/showthread.php?t=41957&page=12&pp=15
IMO, we should keep Commando discussions in that thread, because we’re kind of getting off topic now(We don’t want the mods to close this thread, right?)Maybe if you actually tried to learn Commando, you wouldn’t be so discouraged…If only Genghis were here :sad:

So true…Peace:smile:

this game turned into first clean hit wins

System_1 · February 5, 2005, 4:56am

I can’t believe people think capcom vs sentinel has a chance. We already established ironman has no chance what make you think capcom has one. Just because you whole team got raped and its down to your capcom vs sent at 30% and two whole characters, you got lucky with a hit and all the sudden capcom is great against sent. Lets face it, capcom has no way to force sent to fight. If sent decide to c.hp flyxxunfly all day there nothing cap can do about it. c.hp over and over works on characters much faster than commando so there is noway cap gonna get in.
