Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3

Sent's biggest problem isn't high health. It's having one of the best, if not the best overall assists in the game + level 3 x factor, both of which make him one of the best anchors. He has a lot of strength, but also has definite weaknesses. Now he just dies faster to characters that already beat him, and you have to be a bit smarter about calling him out as an assist. Only randoms wil really drop him, big fucking deal.
 
Nah, in my opinion, Sent had a lot more than an assist and level 3 X factor going for him. He can zone, potentially punish people who guess wrong with relatively low risk/high reward armored attacks, decent range, his ability to control the air, and, on top of that, drone super is fuckin' bananas even outside of combos (especially for baiting assists) as even if you hit him, they still come out, setting you right back to step 1. The fact that he out-damages most of the cast with relatively safe stuff while also being able to take more hits than all of the cast certainly helped to make him a good character. This way, at least, once you DO guess right against Sentinel , you can get real damage on him without having to spend all your characters against him and then having to worry about the other two guys and he still remains a decent character.

Also, I always thought it kinda dumb that Sentinel is/was better than Hulk in damn near each and every way.
 
Anything ground level sentinal can link into HUGE damage. Up close you have 2M, S, j.S and command grab to deal with and far he can turn any s.H into c.H into hyper and then if he feels like it can X-factor his happy ass in for a 100% combo. In air he can just. spam j.S till he slaps you out of the sky.His issue is damage output in too mane scenarios. Hulk can zone with tsunami, but you dont see him taking off 70% damage off the confirm without spending more meter on a DHC. Hulk can only get big damage from up close fights and he doesn't get hypers that lead into combos. He also doesn't have a multi hitting low with super armor that stretches have the stage and can still chain into S. If they want to fix Sentinal do this:

Less frames on beams on block
Sentinal force wont link off beams or mid screen OTG punch
OTG punch only reaches in corner
S whiffs after c.M

Done. Still a damn good character and can zone, he just cant make 60-80 damage off every damn poke he attempts with a ridiculous hit confirm period. I'd even opt to put the health back at 1,300,000. He doesn't need to be the "fat" Phoenix with low health.
 
Sentinel. The word is S-E-N-T-I-N-E-L. Seriously, this is driving me insane. And Hulk doesn't need a low a-la Sent's 2B. His 5C reaches half-screen, has armor and even hits behind him. At least do research before you try to suggest changes.
 
Don't forget it gets its armor faster than Sent's S, and he gets decent damage off his command throw anywhere on the screen. Hell, the characters go pretty even against each other. Both characters make you scared to press buttons, Sent is extremely well rounded while Hulk can beat stupid amounts of things with 5C.
 
Not sayin hulk needed one, just sayin it's an advantage Sentinal has. I like Hulk, I feel he's very balanced. Lot of potential but some obvious weaknesses.
I just feel when Hulk beats me in the face it was my fault, and then when I get clipped by some obscure sentinEL poke and he turns some upside down back handed laser dick beam into a 70% damage after watching my hit stun for 10 seconds before he reacts...I'm just a lil irritated. I have areas where I dont have to respect hulk S and s.H...but Sentinal has scary shit every where and can just fish no matter where he's at.
 
Hulk can't to crap against people who crouch block as he has no instant overhead. It's a pain to deal with people who.just crouch block cause I have too grab them
 
Yeah lot of people forget to grab with Sentinal and Hulk against someone who just blocks and punishes. Still kinda hard to do though. Command throw for hulk is a tad slow after whatever move you did going in and most his moves push them too far to normal grab after without going forward a bit.
 
I feel that his health drop was too excessive...

He barely has more health than ZERO now. I would have been okay to drop his health to Wesker's or maybe between Tron's and Wesker's.

900k means that he dies in one combo from at least half the cast
 
Health doesn't mean much at all with Sent, it might if you were garbage with him and only played him for 'easy mode wins'. The nerf isn't a big deal imo, his pros still outweigh the cons by a mile, so I'm going to keep using him while most people think 'lol sent' now.
 
Yeah, I'm still gonna play Sentinal the same way and be like "stay in your corner, oh shit! Boot!". I already lose if I let them start a combo with me, now I dont have to watch them build as much meter doing it lol.

Tho this does make punishing him with anti projectile Hypers and beam hypers a lot scarier, where before I was like "lol that tickled...also you wasted a hyper."

OMG SENT GOT SMACKED WITH DAT NERF BAT!!!! lol

But really, Sentinel isn't even all that bad. The only thing I don't like about him is his Sent. Force (Charge) assist, and even then, Tron, Haggar and Doom assist beat that in terms of usefulness (and annoyance). If he was going to get a nerf, it should have been on his damage output. That's it. Maybe even take out his invincibility in hypers, but that's as far as I would go.

Now, a character that really bugs me would be Dark Phoenix, but only during Lv 3 X-Factor. This psycho bitch is just too damn fast, especially with the fact that it's online, you're not blocking a damn thing, and if you do, you're still kissing away at least 20-50% on chip alone because SHE CAN'T CONTROL IT. Playing against a Phoenix sitting on 5 bars and X-Factor turns MAHVEL into a game of tag. Not exactly fun and exciting. She's the only character to make me go:

when I lose. Or win for that matter.

With Sentinel you only really need to worry about Spit and Hyper Sentinel Force chip along with his Super armor normals. Everything he does is easily telegraphed anyway. The nerf really wasn't all that necessary, if at all. I'd rather Capcom does something about X-Factor and glitches first before focusing on character fixes.
 
Yeah, I really only think Sent's dumb online, but, regardless, he is the most scrub friendly character in the game. I honestly think what they SHOULD be looking at nerfing is level three x-factor. You shouldn't be able to do three combos and win the game after getting shit on the entire match.

Click to expand...

First, epic image.

Second, it's a must to snap Phoenix in. Letting her reach five bars is almost, and I emphasize almost, losing the match.
 
Lol at the pics, but in all seriousness, I think that the health drop was too much, maybe a little less.

1 Thor BnB = Dead SentiLOL

I though that Phoenix was gonna have a nerf... and Lv 3 X-Craptor

Stupid Lv3 Ryu with back to back beam hypers and have sent die on only chip (even with Advancing Guard) while in air.... TOTAL BS....

I usually let phoenix get 5 bars but not KO her, only her partners and then jump/fly/teleport away until time up. Best anti-phoenix strategy ever
 
Phoenix is still a beast in normal mode. That rush down/keep away back and forth are insane.

Sentinal vs Sentinal matches are now funny. Just 2 bots staring at each other afraid of the others boot.
