The Temecula (Scrubville) Thread

ummm correction. I DO NOT USE SENTINEL NOR WILL I EVER!!! i will never back down on my word. Bills always saying , “youll start using him eventually” NO i will not. sorry Sonny but ill stick to using my cheesy ass cable to counter all the cheesy ass Sentinel players out there (damn RB bastards cant use a team that doesnt include his robotic ass). BTW good game today Sonny. Dont lie to me that you havent been practicing :slight_smile:

HAHAHAHAHA

yeah, i’ve been practicing. but not as much as you or bill has. and i’ve been focusing mainly on strider/doom (cuz my trap SUCK!!!).

I used to hate Sent. But now, he’s the main guy in my teams.

And good game, man. Haven’t played like that in awhile. (against rico, they slaughtered me)

Ummm, Sentinel owns you for free. And there are a few people who know how to use Sentinel correctly. It is Cable that none of you understand how to play. I suggest downloading some videos or watching someone who knows how to use him. It will give you some ideas on how to utilize his zoning abilities. And remember, when you have meter punish every mistake the other person makes. People around here always forget how dangerous Cable with meter is, AHVB that shit, it is too good. Learn how to bait people with assists and such. You guys can all get better, just need to practice more and play people you know can beat you.

Sonny: I guess I missed you today by about 45 minutes :(. Too bad, I could have shown you how cool Cable is.

Matt: If you want to be the best at this game you have to learn Sentinel. If not to use him and win then to atleast understand what he can do and he is capable of doing. Additionally, he is one of the most fun characters in the game to use, especially with a good anti-air.

Dan: Glad to see you on the boards. Now you guys just need to start setting up meetings and everything so you all can collaborate and learn new things. Good luck.

alright Bill. Youre right. Ill learn how to use sentinel. if it turns out that i dont like him then oh well. at least i was able to learn to use another character. you gotta teach me some tricks though. the only one that i know is HP XX ROCKET PUNCH XX DRONE SUPER. thats about it. if im gonna learn how to use him, i wanna learn some dope air combos. so come to tilt sometime this week during the afternoon and teach me the ways of the purple extend-o-arm robot hehe.

“Practice is the best instructor.” I found that in a fortune cookie. So instead of having me teach you, just read about his fast fly combos, understand what unfly is, how to activate it, and how to use it, learn his best teams, etc, etc, etc. I didn’t really have anybody teach me him, just start using him, read a lot, read more, then practice, then read more and practice more. I told you. Once you start using him, you’ll realize what we have all along, Sentinel is tight. But not as tight as Iron Man. Right Andy, lol.

alright dood. im gonna go hit up some FAQ’s right now and do a bit of research. ill show you what ive learned next time we battle.

WP,WP,WK,UP+MP,JUMP,WP,WP,WK,WP,MP,MK basic Strider Hiryu combo. It only works in close range.:bluu:

Scrub…:mad: I bet u can’t even use Cable.:lame:

:smiley: :cool:

Shit, you guys don’t know how to use Cable and/or Sent? Hit me up and I’ll teach you that shit (and yes, I can fucking AHVB…). I’m still getting used to arcade sticks and/or atmosphere, so I’m still learning stuff, but not as much as you guys are…

Phison (or Sonny, which should I call you?): Lemme see your Strider/Doom someday, and I’ll help you out… But of course, I’ll need a ride (IF I need one from you, that is)… Since you’re from Elsinore, I’m assuming you take the 15 to Temecula. Don’t worry; I live in Murrieta, pretty much close to the freeway… Yet far from Temecula by like 3-4 miles…

Everyone else (besides Bill, Team RiCo, and other players that are asses… J/K; y’all are :cool: ): When I do go to the mall, just tell me who you are and I’ll help you guys learn shit so you can beat Bill constantly…

Bill: :lol: Everyone’s determined to beat your ass… Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know you can hold us off now, but give the guys like 3-4 months and you’ll get better competition with the Temecula locals… Even though you might still beat our asses…

i could beat bill :smiley:

Ray: Our games are always fun though. I will catch up soon, I promise. Remember, #1 and #2. We will be champs.

Tony: You are still cool.

Brendon: I’m glad you all are determined to beat me, but it will never happen on a consistent basis. You all think that I have reached some type of plateau in the game and I will never learn anything new or advance my skills. It sucks for you guys though, because I am only going to get better. I am curious as to who becomes number 1 after I leave. Can’t be John because he is going to Irvine. Matt, Dan, you, Myles, Sonny, Adrian, everyone that plays around here, you all are on a relatively similar skill level. Brendon, you may know more about the game than a lot of them, but they can still compete with you and beat you as you can beat them. Sonny has a lot of potential as does Matt. Oh well.

I won’t be playing as often for the remainder of my stay in Temecula, I would rather do some other things while I still have the chance. Keep practicing Temecula.

Hey how come I heard Temecula players suck?:stuck_out_tongue:

so long

well bill and i are both leaving in about 10 days, but we’ll still be getting better at marvel all the time. He’ll be practicing with RiCo and he’ll probably be harassing me to get better :frowning: so i guess be ready for the next time you play Bill. Just be ready to take on bill at quadruple his skill as of now, since he will be that good in about 2-3 months or so. Um i dont really have anything more to say so…keep practicing

Because we do.

Well sorry I’ve been actin’ like an ass.:frowning: I just can’t tolerate dumb asses!!!:mad: I’ll be more affectionate in my postz from now on.:smiley:

Bill: Howz it goin’ baby cakez??? o_O

It is going well. It is cool talking on both the forums and AIM to the same person lol. Storm’s RH is too good.

Gee, thanks trance mansarcasm youve never even seen me play. id put money on the fact that youre better than me but you dont have to rub it in. and yes i know how to use Cable (4 AHVB’s in a row is still my record). Anyways, Bill, i hate you!!! j/k i practiced with sentinel today for about 6 games against the computer and i learned some cool stuff. nothing too special though. And i checked the net last night for some sentinel Faq’s/guides, etc and i only found some bullshit guides with nothing really useful in them. where do you get your information besides this site (shoryuken) and gamefaqs.com? i want to learn what fly/unfly is. Dont worry, i know how to activate flight mode and de-activate it but what youre talking about sounds more complicated than that.

There are pages and pages of information written on Unfly Mode. Check the articles on this site, it has an entire essay devoted to it. But in summation, you activate Unfly Mode by being hit and landing on your feet i.e. being hit with a launcher and subsequently not being comboed. So, you are hit into the air and you do not land on your back. Unfly Mode allows you to perform more than one action after you de-activate flight mode. Without Unfly Mode, after you de-activate flight mode, your character is in “Normal Jump Mode” which states that you are only allowed one action while in the air i.e. you can either block an attack, perform an attack, etc. etc. The possibilities with Unfly Mode are numerous, Sentinel becomes even more threatening as a rushdown and trapping character.

Examples: sj. rh, fly rh, unfly rh, fp, land, fp, assist, fp, fly, rh, over and over and over again

Another advantage of Unfly Mode is its ability to bait supers our of Cable.

Example: Cable is jumping around dropping grenades and shooting bullets while Sentinel is in Unfly Mode while flying. Cable performs an AHVB but on reaction, Sentinel de-activates flight and blocks the AHVB. Ta Da, you have successfully baited Cable and made him waste a super meter.

However, you need to remember when Unfly Mode is activated, otherwise you may think you have it when you really don’t and then your Sentinel dies because you were dumb. Furthermore, Unfly Mode “wears out” after about 5 or 6 uses of it but you are able to activate it once again after taking a hit that doesn’t knock you down. But, for a majority of the time, whether you know it or not, you will be in Unfly Mode, but just to be sure, pay attention to when you do and when you do not have it. Another thing, Unfly Mode is de-activated if you perform a normal jump. So, if you have Unfly and you want to keep it, either super jump then fly or just fly.

Unfly Mode works for every character who has the ability to fly, Iron Man has a tight semi-infinite with Unfly in the air.

Example: Launcher, lp, lk, up + fp, air dash up, lp, up + fp, fly, lp, up + fp, unfly, up + fp, air dash up, lp, up + fp, fly, lp, up + fp

You can repeat from Unfly 5 or 6 times. It doesn’t do much damage but it is very flashy and fun to do and will sometimes allow for a cross over on the way down.

All in all, learn Unfly and how to abuse it.

Thanks bro. guess i got some practicin to do now:)

Who’s going to Tilt today??? i wanna practice with Sentinel agains another player not the damn computer. i can do that shit anytime i want at home. C’mon Sonny! come hit up the arcade with me!!! Ill show you my sentinel if you show me yours (heheheh). Anyhow, anybody got any suggestions for sentinel fly cancel air combos? I still remember getting totaled by this one guy at Nickel City that did this way sick unfly combo at the edge of the screen that consisted of a regular air combo, a fly combo and into an unfly throw combo. Man that shit Fu<ked my Cammy up!!! (must learn…drool)
