Sentinel silent nerf?

Has there been a silent nerf to sentinel?
Sentinels L2/Sp2 used to apply incenerate threw the opponents block. This was one of the key points why I upgraded this champion.

I have not heard any announcements regarding a change to this champion.
Here was the official statement. “Sentinels will have their Power Bar capacity reduced from 3 Bars to 2. This will prevent them from being able to use a Special 2 Attacks followed immediately by a Special 1 Attack.
- Sentinels will have their Signature Ability Levels reduced on Maps 4 and 5 to Sig Level 1 (they are currently at 1 on Map 3), which means that they will steal less of your Attack Rating.
- Reduced the Attack Rating of all Sentinels by 15%, and Reduced their Total health by 10%
- Reduced the Skill Sentinel’s chance to Purify Debuffs from 100% to 50%, and increased the delay on Purification from 0.5 seconds, to 1 second.
- Reduced the Fury Buff Potency on Science Sentinels by 30%
- Sentinels will no longer hidden on Maps, allowing Summoners to read their Ability Descriptions before engaging.
- As a note, none of the general changes (Power, Attack, Health) impact the player-available Sentinel; only the “Minion” type variants used as opponents in quests.”


If anyone has information on this topic please share.

    Everything you quoted is just for AQ sentinels, not summoner owned sentinels. did you have full analysis when you used sp2? you have to have full analysis charge or whatever it is for that ability

    My man, the incinerate penetrated the block after achieving full analysis.
  • There have not been any changes made to Sentinel. We do not silently Nerf Champions. If you believe there is an issue with a Champion, or it is not acting as it once did, please consider it a bug until otherwise notified.

    Sentinel can still apply Incinerate, Heal Block, and Armor Break through Blocks, but this only occurs when Sentinel has acquired 100 Analysis charges. If you are getting the 100 Charges, but are still not seeing this effect, please let us know by starting a thread in the Bugs and Known Issues section of the Forums.
