thanks, what are his safest way to get to flight mode, i know you shouldn’t normal jump cuz you lose unfly.
so would crouching fierce into fly be a good way to start harrassing people?

I think what you meant to say is unfly mode… anyhow, as you know, you must get hit to achieve unfly mode, you shouldn’t try to get hit since most of the time you’ll end in mag’s infinite, or another sentinels fast fly… etc etc. Safest bet, however, would be against cable, when your opponents throw grenades. Let cable fall after he throws a grenade and then get hit by the grenade… other than that, you shouldn’t try to get unfly mode, but instead you should be trying to find ways to do as much damage as possible to your opponent.
Depends… experience different things for yourself is my best advice on harrassing because everyone’s going to react differently towards that as a starter. If it works, well against sumone, keep usin it… if not, mix it up with sumthin else… but like i said, jus keep playin and you’ll find out
thanks for the advice but, i meant what’s a good way to start flying and harrasing.
I know flying is a big part of his game, should he cancel it off of something?
I know stomps and cross ups with commando are good, but what are some good tactics with flying
It’s really hard to explain how to play with Sentinel because generally it comes with experience. Here is a run-down of basic strategy and some combos to help.
*ALWAYS have an assist that helps sentinel. Yes I know this is obvious but I can’t stress this enough. Cyke and capcom are generally the main assists you’ll need. Mag-A is also decent.
*With sent learn how to lockdown with c.fp, fly, unfly, c.fp. This is easy to learn but it also helps you learn how to cancel fly quickly and basically helps you do all of sents shit fast.
*If you are going to play with Matrix, or any team with sent, learn some stompdown patterns. I.E. sj.lk, fly, f.lk + cyke, hk, unfly fp, sj.lk, and so on. Learn some regular non unfly patterns also, like sj.lk, f.lk + cyke, f.hk, unfly, / sj. repeat or whatever.
*Learn how to fast fly. Not just for corner combos but for midscreen shit. Most of the time you’ll sj.lk and hit the opponent when they are mid-air. When this shit happens, fast fly that shit into f.lk, f.lk, RP. Good damage and will make the opponent double take about jumping up vs. sent.
*Knowing when to c.fp is also a major tool. This is one of his best moves and should be abused. If you use matrix, I like to have Storm-B on my team. Do a c.fp+Storm assist. Helps you lock them down, and you can then xx into fly and stomp them.
*Learn sents unblockable and some other guardbreaks. In case you (or anyone else didn’t know) his unblockable is c.fp (which is usually used as an unblockable after you kill one char. and another is jumping in). Basically you do the c.fp early, and it hits them twice. If you do it early while the beam is fading out its and unblockable.
*Learn how to control the air with your assists and your own f.lks, f.fps, and f.hks. This is another obvious thing, but it is one you NEED to practice.
*Last thing that I can think of at the moment is to learn (which is probably the easiest thing with sent) how to continue the HSF into more with s.hp, s.RP, hsf repeat. Damn easy shit to learn, but people can pushblock out, so you may want to use an assist (Storm-B or Mag-A) with the s.hp to make sure they stay in.
*Here is my combo of choice for Matrix:
In corner: Launch, sj.lp, sj.lk, FF.lk + Cyke AA, f.fp, (they hit cykes beam shit) f.lk, f.lk, f.RP.
Then you can add if you want some unfly shit inbetween the cyke assist.
Then the BASIC basic FF combo with sent is: Launch, sj.lp, sj.lk, FF.lk, f.hp.

Also, you may want to check out my little site (in sig). I have some mvc2 tutorials for the main characters atm, and I’ll be adding some.
If you need anything else just ask.
-peace.
heres a random guardbreak…
j. fp, s.lk, s.lp, rp, HSF
how do i rush down in flight mode with dooms aaa assist? what kinds of combos would i do?
Rush:
With sent do a c.hp + doom aa, fly, f.lk, f.hk, unfly.lk, /, sj.lk, f.lk, f.fp + doom, and so on.
Here’s just something I do for a little trap with sent and doom.
Do the basic fast fly combo, launch, sj.lp, sj.lk, ff, f.lk, f.fp + doom aa, Rp down (Wont hit but will keep their ass down on the ground) Then /, lockdown with c.hp fly, unfly, c.hp. Dooms rocks after the f.fp will hold them down/chip. Then its just locking them down.
I’ll fuck around with them later and get some combos for ya.
Later.
bf, which part of cali are you from?
im jus curious cus id like to play you sometime
thanks a ton bf, its highly appriciatted.
sorry, i havent been on thewe boards long( or for that matter any board. but what does the V mean in the middle of the combos?
and in the combo: c.hp + doom, fly, f.lk, f.hk, unfly, lk, V, sj. lk, f.lk, f.fp+ doom.
right after unfly, is that lk in the air, or on the ground? and at the end of the combo when it says sj. lk than f.lk, do u go into flight mode inbetween there. i cant get that gap small enough.
u wanna talk about sentinel/doom? i dun play them but i fuck around in training mode n found some funny but good shit
launch, sj.lk, fast fly lk+doom, f.lp rp, f.lk, f.fp, unfly, rocks hit, unblockable…thats his unblockable setup…i dunno if nebody knew that
then like…u know how ur playin n the scrub might run into some random rocks near u…well sj.lp, sj.lp, sj.rh, delay, rp (which one depends on height…u’ll have to mess with it, most of the time its dp rp)…thats it, that is what YOU do. It’ll look like this…
rocks hit, sj.lp, sj.lp, sj.rh, rocks hit, rp, they go FLYING then a pebble out of nowhere pops hits them and pops them up high as hell (unblockable maybe;) , not that u’ll hit the G’s with it, but it’ll punish the scrubs)…this makes them go about 3/4 of the screen so most likely they’ll be near the corner…where sent/doom is actually kinda good
nice thanks, ill try that out.
I’m down in San Diego. I usually play (well actually only play) at the Nickel City in Carmel Mountain. I was actually going to be around San Jose area in like a week (for some game convention I usually attend) but school starts fucking early this year, so oh well. If you’re ever down here PM me and we can play.
Later.
yea, definitely man, ill definitely pm you when im down in that area man… jus do me a favor and pm me whenever ur in san ho dood
later man, hope to play u sumtime in da future
me too
dangeveryone lives in cali, this isint fair! lol freakin washington being gay.
You’re from Washington? As in Washington State? If so, Seattle’s one of the most competitive places in the US for marvel.
yeah, but i cant drive yet, and i live like a half and hour drive from seattle, and my parents hate packin me arounnd anywhere… sometimes if im lucky someone good drifts over to the mall i play at alot.
me too! Oh wait, crap. i live in New jersey…
Take the bus homie… go to lanwerx (in bellevue) sometime and play the likes of RowTron, Kuan, Jmar, the Rat king or Mark Santos.
BTW… if you really want to see a good sentinel in play watch Kuan play… that guy is Kuantinel. Not to say the others aren’t good either, Row and Jmar got some of the beastliest sentinels in the world.
