i’m looking on maining him too, lets hope our characters don’t end up crap in this game!
Hey Smexy, does his rocket punch assist hit low?
He’s not OP like MVC2 at all based on what’s currently discovered. He can’t just stomp on you all day because the only stomp he has is j.L, j.M and fry pan which is j.S. To me it feels his stomp game in MVC2 is completely gone but I’m no Sent expert so if someone contradicts me the other person is probably right. lol
I guess if you want to relate it to something he’s Vanilla Sagat OP in that high health, high damage, really good zoning tools, but no gtfo me move. He seems to have issues when getting rush down (as per mvc2) and he’s so big there’s going to be a lot of character specific mix ups, combos, and traps on him. It might not be too bad since push block pushes the opponent to the other side of the screen now.
Right now he seems OP because while a lot of things have been changed his gameplay still feels familiar and comfortable. A lot of the other characters are new and require a lot of development before we can say Sent dominates over everyone so even hard match ups are hard to tell. For me, it felt annoying fighting small hitbox characters who can rush down like Zero.
I’ve been asking this for days, my friend finally checked it out for me this morning…hits mid…
No unblockable set ups with sentinel assist :[!!!
Oh snap your getting this aswell he’s really good trust me Im probably gonna upload a vid of some combo’s using him but Il make it a downloadable file on zshare or something
Idk about sentinel being OP, has anyone seen the combo videos by Tragic? He did 2 sentinel combos that could only be done in the corner and it only took 66% off Captain America. Now i know that alot of characters have very low health compared to this, but hes also did a combo vid on Thor and he did a 100% on Cap with just one bar of super, and it was just magic series-air magic series-OTG mighty slam- reset mighty hurricane-exchange to air series-mighty strike and mighty tornado, which looked really easy to do. Idk I think Sentinel has the most options in the game in terms of big characters, but he also looks like the weakest overall in terms of pure damage input, and his drones are slow as crap and ive seen alot of characters just duck under his beams, so i think hes still good. But nowhere OP.
Downloadable files means no viewing while at work for me, unfortunately.
In the sentinel videos, no X-factor was used, while with Thor, he used xfactor, which buffs your damage alot.I think it also resets the scaling or reverts it a bit, or something like that.
He means the Sentinel video against Thor, not the Thor video reset.
He is comparing Trag’s Corner combo video w/ Sent to another CKC video featuring Sent against Thor.
Sentinel is a beast. You can pretty much cancle drones into dones before all of them even hit. Standing and crouching heavy attack is fast. Someone said it seems you don’t have to fly around much. From my experiences with him. You don’t have to fly at all,unless during a combo. I haven’t found a reason to just fly stomp rush at someone. Though I haven’t really played anyone super good yet either. So that might not be the case. I was thinking of posting trial combos but that might be bad.0(-_-)0
Hey Smexy, I have a suggestion for maybe avoiding Raging Demon, although character specific. Obviously there is jumping but specifically I was wondering if Felicia’s cat run can go pass through it. If you don’t mind and have time I was also curious if it’ll keep her safe through Storms Hailstorm.
Edit: Crap wrong thread.
So does his Sentinel Drone Super suck now?
so what other characters fit the characteristics to become a part of g unit?
we already got 50 sent…
Ironman as Tony Yayo.
…i told you guys he was crazy good a few pages back… seeeeeeeeeeeee
I may have missed this in the thread but what do we know about good assists for Sent? Is jam session working as a combo extender? Does he need something to help him against zoning since he’s less mobile?
dey got da mango sentinel… sooo happy
joe you gonna be showing us some more stuff tonight? :wgrin:
From my Day 1 with Sent
Pros
-Damage
-Insane Corner Damage
-Drones are good
-Can Combo From Normal Throw from anywhere on screen
Cons
-j. LK is removed
-Fly is kinda weak because he has no fast fly, j. LK for great air-air situations, and it lasts only about 6 or so seconds.
Day 1
Fly Rules
-If you Super Jump than fly you can’t assist
-If you Fly From Standing you can Assist
-If you Fly from Normal Jump you can Assist
-There is no way to Fast Fly
-There is no hop when you fly. This is caused by bad inputs. People are doing 2367E and using there double jump so it just appears as if he hops.
-Pressing E cancels fly. If you simply press E he’ll end fly immediately doing j. E and fast fall (very good aerial with insane amounts of frame advantage). Or you can cancel fly using 236E and no frying pan will come out.
-He has unfly but I don’t see a lot of use for it. Because his j. MK,j.C,and are so slow they don’t combo and without his old j.LK his lights can’t normally reach. Not only that but any extension unfly normally is only useful to extend combos and by that point hit stun degradation is too high to normally do anything useful.
Corner Combo I’m doing to get the knockdown and deal about 650k-800k is
(Also Works After C Command Grab)
Stuff into ExxJumpxxjCxxB RocketPunch ->j.A->j.Bxxjumpxxj.B->j.C->j.E->A Rocket Punch->Hyper Sentinel Force->E->j.E
Characters he works well with so far:
Trish (Trick Shot)
Amatarasu (Ice) WORKS REALLY WELL WITH SENT
Storm (WhirlWind)
I’ll do more later
