Black Widow, Vision, Hawkeye, Captain America: Friends
All Champions gain +130 Armor Rating
Hulk: Rivals
All Champions gain +115 Critical Damage Rating

Recommended Masteries:

Recoil
Most of Sentry’s abilities are based around his Special Attacks and how they impact his damage output. Recoil is a good option to further increase his damage. In addition, his situational Regeneration on Special 3 will help mitigate damage taken from Recoil.
Extended/Enhanced Fury
When using Sentry, you’ll want to maintain the long-lasting Fury Buff gained from his Special 1 Attack. By keeping the Fury active and enhanced, Sentry will have a consistent boost to damage.
Glass Cannon
Sentry is all about increasing his Attack through his abilities. Glass Cannon is another way to boost Attack, and with his Signature Ability, he has some defenses to back the damage up.

Strong Match-ups:
Dormammu
When entering into a long fight against Dormammu, Sentry is provided time to build up his damage. He’s able to gain Reality Warps, apply Fury, inflict Armor Breaks, and cycle through his different States to inflict a chunk of damage.
Magik
Sentry is able to deal large bursts of damage when his abilities align. This can be used to play around Magik’s Limbo. Sentry’s Special 3 Regeneration helps mitigate damage taken from Limbo.
M.O.D.O.K.
Sentry’s different States provide him with powerful Unblockable Attacks which help overcome M.O.D.O.K. and his auto-block ability.

Weak Match-ups:

Green Goblin
All of Green Goblin’s ability are not good for Sentry. Sentry relies on Special Attacks, his Signature defense is disabled by Debuffs, and his focus is all about having high Attack. Green Goblin can counter all of Sentry’s abilities through his Special and Heavy Attacks, which all apply Power Drain, Poison, Incinerate, and Weakness.
Hela
Most of Sentry’s attacks are Physical based and Hela has a Passive that boosts her Physical Resistance. Sentry relies on maintaining a combo which is challenging when facing Hela’s Special Attacks.
Taskmaster
Taskmaster can reduce opponent’s Ability Accuracy which affects the overall damage output of Sentry. His Fury, Armor Break, and Signature Indestructible are all affected by the reduced Ability Accuracy.

    Question: Is the 30% chance to enter his next state triggered once for every 10 hits in a combo or every hit after a 10 hit combo? For example, Sentry gets to 10 attack hit combo and gets 30% chance to enter Overpowering Light. He does not get into the next state, does his next opportunity come at the 20-hit combo mark or 11-hit, 12-hit, 13-hit, etc?

    Again, 5* PI, PLEASE!

    And by how much do reality warps multiply his abilities? Do they only affect his chance of gaining abilities from entering new states, or do they also multiply the potency of the abilities themselves (in Overpowering Light, his SP1 attack bonus is multiplied per reality warp)? Do reality warps affect his special attack abilities?

    So Sentry gets fury buff for 20 seconds after his special 1, that means we can stack the Furies by spamming the special 1 or will it refresh the Fury?? ...Is this Ryt @Kabam Miike @Kabam Vydious....

    Please confirm

    Was thinking the same thing. 20 second fury timer.

    He changes states every 10 hits. You just only have a 30% chance to get that states special ability. Very, very lame

    yep I don't understand either. Why only 30 % ? It ruins the all purpose of the states of mind. 50 % would have been more logical imo

    He's supposed to be... pretty much the strongest marvel character in this game. Hopefully this isn't a disappointment kabam. His abilities sound interesting, but not what you'd expect. Reading this, I still feel like hyperion would do more damage, but I haven't seen him in action yet, so who knows.
  • DonybDonyb Posts: 125
    Is he being released in the crystals today?
  • Greifmaster911Greifmaster911 Posts: 316 ★★
    Would he be viable as 5*?
  • Batty_NumppoBatty_Numppo Posts: 284 ★★★
    The sig description is a good reason why we also want to know how it scales: how can you start the fight with less than 0% health? At a lower sig, is this figure higher? As in, reality warps not traveling from fight to fight if he’s at, say, 20% health? Same with the indestructible ability in the inverse: does he have maybe just a 50% chance at a low sig?

    Overall gotta say this spotlight wasn’t done very well.
  • Mana_PotMana_Pot Posts: 235 ★★
    Is his indestructible supposed to work something like ice armor? If I've got a combo and I take an L3, does that L3 do nothing to me?
  • CakesCakes Posts: 22
    So at 20 hits will it be a 90% chance to proc any of the 3 phases? Or 30% for phase 2 than at 30 hits you get phase 3 to proc at 30%? I guess what i am asking is can we proc ANY of the phases at combo 20? The pay off seems not worth it if we just get a 1/3 chance at something vs almost always getting one of the 3 phases.

    Did you guys test this against 5/5 MD magiks and dormmammus with some of the nodes in war? I bet u guys didnt. You said GG was a counter to MD. We all know how that turned out to be.
  • MH2804MH2804 Posts: 77
    Sentry is weak. Disappointed . He’s the strongest marvel character out there.
  • gkelly26gkelly26 Posts: 51
    What a disappointment. He’s gonna be rubbish in the recommended fights. Hope I’m wrong but upon reading this the design team have released another rotten champ that everyone was looking forward too

    Looks like a very meh champ. Nothing indicates he'll be a good defender or an attacker

    I suppose I CAN see why it's only a 30% chance for each state. I think Kabam wants Sentry to be a long fight master. Lets say you're fighting ROL WS and you finish that fight with all 5 stacks of all his reality warp states. I imagine the next fight with CM would be so damn fast due to him being at "max power" (and if he's awakened for it to carry over).

    But at the same time, 30% chance Kabam? Well idk, we'll have to wait and see. This community really gets riled up at times before things are out not knowing the full context so Sentry may be god tier at "max power" idk.

    Another thing, it's possible that his passive 40 hit reality warp added extra chance for his state of minds to proc (You know, cuz it's what it basically says) so it's possible with say 3 reality warps the chance to proc his States are now at 60% chance and say at 5 Warps it's now at 80% chance so at about a 200-300 hit combo, you'll be gaining those warps like nothing meaning they REALLY want him to be a SL type character (which I'm fine with)

    This part I think I understand. Phases only occur one at a time, like this:

    Combo 0-9: Unyielding Fortitude
    Combo 10-19: Overpowering Light
    Combo 20-29: Steadfast Approach
    Combo 30-39: Absolute Strength
    *gain a Reality Warp*
    Combo 40-49: Unyielding Fortitude
    Combo 50-59: Overpowering Light
    .
    .
    .
    Etc.

    Nvm this. I think I got confused and didn’t read it right. My bad.

    HmmmmmNot liking him so far His regen is not good And he only has 30% chance to get the benefit of 3 out of 4 phase

    At 5 reality wrap charges ,1566 * 5 =7830 hp over 3 secs. Almost back to full health. Regen seems pretty good!

    Why didn't the content creators get early access? Yall should know a huge chunk of the community is saving up just for him because of all the 5* science awakening gems. Getting gameplay out there earlier would've just added to the hype.
