        • Anyone else think that something like this is actually completely in-character for Sentry?

          The Sentry deleted his own thread. The world forgets that the Golden Guardian of Good ever existed.

          Man, that self-damage has no limits...

          Edit: Also, his stats (pulled from the MPQ wiki) until Nonce updates the first post:

          Supernova (Red 11 AP)
          The Sentry projects an epic energy blast. Damages the enemy team for 189 before shattering up to 4 random Red tiles. Each tile damages the enemy team for 35 and allies for 35 but does not generate AP. This ability ends the turn.

          Level 3: Destroys up to 7 Red tiles

        • I want Void as a separate character (who, for obvious reasons, could not be on a team with Sentry). That is all.
        • I'm well aware that while Fabio is an animal on defense that he has problems on offense (namely lighting your own team up like a Christmas tree).
          I'm wondering if pushing into *** territory with a duo of Sentry and OBW would be viable, with the end game of going towards either LDaken or Patch(5 colors for BTI) would be a good idea.
          TLDR: Is Sentry OBW a good duo or should I wait on it?

          The Void as a playable character would delete your game from your device so that you could no longer do good acts or defeat the evil forces.
        • Also, if you were going to run sentry on offense, what ***s would you pair him with?
        • L3 yellow at max level is 1261/401.

          I'm heavily considering a team of max healing Patch, max healing Daken, and Sentry. Both heal enough that the team won't get wrecked and collecting green might be all you need to win (between daken's strike tiles and world rupture). The only thing in the way of that for me (besides missing Sentry covers) is that Patch might only be there for red at that point.

          As for your other question, it might work but Due to her low health, oBW may die more often that you would like.
        • Obligatory "Sentry's green with TurDaken's passive = LOTS OF DAMAGE FOR 7 AP OMG **** BBQ WAS THIS INTENDED D3?"

          Ok, we don't need most of the deleted thread anyway, that about sums it up.

          Oh, and obligatory "Hey, maybe Sentry's green actually justifies 5 covers in The Hood's black. Or it would if you wanted to wait to gain all that black AP when the whole point is to use World Rupture before your opponent can gain the AP to use abilities which will bust up all those countdown tiles".
        • Does Sentry's Supernova shatter only Basic Red tiles or can it affect Strike, Protect, Attack or Countdown Red Tiles too?

          It can destroy strike tiles for sure, so I don't see why it wouldn't destroy the other stuff.

          If it destroys you strike tiles, does it still get the effect of them? (Also, same goes for HT's red)

          It does for that damage increment only, but not for anything that follows.

          Okay, I made a video of a 30 second fight with sentry. I had a bit of luck but you can see I'm in no particular hurry in the video.

          edit: argh. Okay, gotta do this again. ...

          Your video just shows you loading boosts. Doesn't actually go into the fight.

          I promise that wasn't on purpose, but that's pretty funny. This isn't my best but it's still pretty fast. Good job on Raven Heart and A.R.E.S. who scored faster victories.

          Nice. It took you more than a minute, though, Bugpop. Thanks so much for the video!
