Do Sentry Fighters have the best passive? I don’t even mean of goons. Do they have the best passive of all characters? Swarm just destroying a small column is so good against special tiles down there and so good for cascades. Maybe paired with relentless makes it even better because you want to get rid of the Sentry’s specials, but if you get rid of too many, the Sentry creates cascades galore!
It’s funny–the Flyers have actually gotten more powerful as they’ve aged. Special tiles are a much larger part of the game than they were when the Ultron goons were first introduced. It used to be that it was just the Cascades and the frustration of seeing desired matches destroyed that made them irritating to fight.
I am tempted to agree with this. Every time I play against those green sentries I am amazed at how many cascades they get, it would almost be worthy of some tin foil applied to the general head area…
Not to take away from the Core Meltdown ones generating crits, once those get rolling…
The Sentries themselves gave me way more trouble than the Hazards did. Tho having the Royal Shield tiles flip Protects to the Gunners was a particularly annoying synergy.
The Sentry are disruptive and deal a lot of damage due to their cascade into a critical frequently. 6 of my characters were knocked out today when it cascades into a critical tile that led to another 2 critical tiles. This happened twice consecutively. I
That’s why I bring 1* BW along if I were to see group of threes next time.
The free board shake is rather ridiculous when you consider just how much the devs over-value it for players. Something like X-Force’s green does stupidly minuscule damage because it can shake up the board. Bleh.
