Shut up! - The Sentinel Thread

I wonder if some assists like Dante’s Jam Session can change this though. A hit right at the end of the fly series could change things if you can still call assists during flight.

That’s what I’m banking on.

I will be honest i havent played with storm very much. There is no clear disadvantage for having her on a team but I think other people might work a little better then the same ol mvc2 stuff. I think magneto is good, but magneto with wesker/sent re launch assist is damn good.

Game is too early to really.

Honestly by saying he can only do normal fly magic series type stuff is nothing to laugh about. That means 1 random air to air normal can lead into 1.5-2 air magic series,After j.FP you also get rocketpunch xx super and after that you get a potential relaunch or a 50/50 mixup that will kill any character with only 1-2 supers and no kfc. Don’t forget why he doesn’t have the same refly he has automatic unfly which means he doesn’t have to worry as much about beams and stuff like that in fly mode.

Honestly I’m really hating the idea of air-air j. Fierces leading to retarded damage for most of the cast : / i hope people are just being bad for the most part right now and you can tech roll most of the knockdowns.

Are all his normals still cancellable into Fly? SweepxxLauncher and Sweep (1 or 2 hits)xxfly calling an assist to fill the hole would be interesting. Also call viper burning kick during any of the low 3 hits of his sweep seems easy timing for an unblockable or very hard to block high/low.

so this is where youve been hiding!! <3

What do you mean here?

iloveu, would you be so kind as to test whether you can time Dormammu’s Dark Hole assist to catch an opponent after an OTG Rocket Punch?

Joe, what moves other than sweep and launcher have super armor?

In MvC2 if you don’t have a glitched state called “unfly” when you go out of flight mode (voluntarily or involuntarily) you were unable to block or attack or anything for that matter (except go back into flight mode). This is one of the main reasons sentinel had a bad matchup vs Cable. In this game if you go out of flight mode you are still able to block or at least I’ve seen people block. Also I believe I’ve seen people exit fly mode than attack, which would have required “unfly” in mvc2.

Edit:
Ya in this vid he does magic series xx fly xx magic series ending in j.HK (doesn’t knockdown) xx unfly xx j. FP
didn’t go for the ground combo though

ok gimme a sec guys ill test it. was playing wesker… I need a team name any ideas?? mag wek sent hahaha

I don’t know, I can’t imagine the team would like each other. Mags robbed the T-Virus from Wesker, Sent hunts Mags because he’s a mutant, Sent’s just a worthless machine to Wesker.

Team BEST FRIENDS!

standing b, crouch b, launcher have armor.

couldnt get dark hole assist after otg rocket punch. It looks like it would work though…

sorry to double post but the camera man just got to my house. hope we have some stuff for you guys to enjoy in a little. Probably gonna eat first

Hey guys, it appears that Ammy has [media=youtube]pIGSCmiCXyA"[/media] Not sure how man reps you can go through though. Apparently, Ammy can do it on most characters, but is easier to do on Sent.

she can take that loop… I hit that bitch (literally) once she is dead. A lot of characters like wesker, felicia, x32, spider man kinda feel liek they have loops on sent. It seems they stop working after a certain amount of hits

Hitstun decay.

I predict most characters will have sent specific combos just like in mvc2. It’s just sent being sent again.

Cant get hit son…Ammy^

Yeah, but Ammy can always remember…she isn’t Phoenix.

Super-Skrull would be a Sentinel killer in my opinion. He has one of the most versatile command grab in the entire game, and Sentinel is a VERY HUGE TARGET for an unblockable move with ridiculous range, various angle (anti-air version catch Sentinel when fly and go entire screen) that could start a combo.

Only think about this: Elastic slam -> Tenderizer -> Skrull torch (the simpliest combo, in the corner could be follows uo by Tenderizer -> Death penality)

Haggar, Thor and Hulk could also kill Sentinel without problem if they start tha magic grab series.

Conclusion: Sentinel is a good character, but absolutly NOT godtier in my opinion
