With sentinel and arcade's buff, and the new cosmics countering redskull and Fam, I wonder who's the best tech defender now?

    Ehh on this meta I found sentinel to be annoying af... Maybe i am not used to dexing him rooted...

    Lost to all three in this meta.
    Won in defense too. (I dont have senti).
    Drafts define defenders. They are all great from what I experienced.

    Red skull is a stall.
    If arcade throws sp1, there's poison ticking.
    Senti makes you alternate combo and specials another stall.

    I think skull is annoying in some metas but he gets nuked easier than the other 2. It’s a toss up between Arcade and Sentinel for me

    Red skull
    Honurable mention! Thronebreakers and new paragons, and even valiants occasionally rarely survive encounters with my viv, they haven't fought her much before and get hit by the unblockable sp1

    Heavy attack: 🍷 🗿
    As soon as you charge it you get smacked in the face 80% of the time
    Sometimes you just gotta take the risk. 🤷‍♂️

    Yes if you intercept shocker when he has above 50 charges, he'll lose charges and won't autoblock your specials. Or just use a autoblock counter

    He's definitely near the top. What I don't get is how rarely I see people in BG use Red Magneto against him. He completely shuts FAM down.

    He’s slow, you have to parry heavy till sp3. There are much faster options

    If you parry heavy all the way to SP3 you'll be wasting prowesses.
    You just have to build up your prowess once you get around 2 bars, and you don't have to parry, you can just throw a few heavies in the air and then cancel out of the last one into the SP3.
    And of course if we're talking about the current GC node, a couple of SP1s will do the trick.

    So tell us you haven't battled the buffed Sentinel without telling us you haven't. Lol

    Has super high crit resistance and armor ups that cannot be removed

    Debuffs trigger through block and he gains significant attack and armor when fully charged

    Ganins 2.7 bars of power in ten seconds when armor ups expire when dropping below 20 percent health

    You have to fight him TWICE every time because a new fully healthy Sentinel repaces the old one before he gets KOed.

    Come on now.

    @AOLOG everything is right but you don't have to fight him twice everytime. He get spare bot only if he uses sp3.

    Sentinel
    After his buff awakened Sentinel is a nightmare on defense

    That's True but it's tough to stop him in BGs from an SP3 in unless you have him armor shattered with a Medusa SP3 when he gets to 20 percent health. At R3 and awakened , mine gains over 7K armor during that period and almost 3 full bars of power He is a definite ban for me.
