Hawk

Character Background

As it’s the only place where the giant nuts, used for the MegaNutz chocolate bars, grow, the land of Hawk’s ancestors was bought up for peanuts by Zlatar, who then kicked out all its inhabitants. And all this under the watchful eye of corrupt politicians. Disgusted by what he saw, Hawk joined the Sentinel to fight against injustice and to beat the hell out of Nutty, the mascot of the MegaNutz.

Review

In my review of Lehane earlier I said that Sentinel’s bulk of usable cards are in high level so why did they decided to add another brute in Hawk? Well Copper and Dragan Cr are just too fragile to SOA. Miranda and Coby’s damage are too dependent on their ability. Chloe’s power is just to low for her level. And we shouldn’t even need to talk about Zdrone outside of Daily Tournaments. So that leaves Sentinel with only two options: Havok and Tessa Cr.

Havok and Tessa Cr are the only other dependable high-star cards that they have and even those two are outclassed by what other clans have at the same star count. Which means that Hawk is Sentinel’s best 5-star card right now even if his stats is just that of Jackie at a higher star count he is still their most solid threat and finisher.

I believe he would be a common sight for Sentinel deck. And with Lehane around I see a bright future for Sentinels especially if they could get some more good fillers.

Lehane

Character Background

All the Sentinel used to make fun of little Lindsay “Legs” Lehane from the bicycle patrol team, with her frail and delicate frame perpetually perched on top of a “double-pedal” bicycle of her own invention. But after having used this unusual vehicle for years, Lehane has become a warrior to be reckoned with. Even though in her heart of hearts she remains the shy young girl who’s head over heels in love with Josh.

Review

Lehane might be the new best 2-star in the game, but being a Sentinel wont get her far. Let’s face it Sentinel lacks good cards. All they really got are brute 5-stars and 4-stars that won’t really get you anywhere. In a clan where the best lineup consists of high star cards paired with bad fillers, Lehane just gets rid of one of the clan’s weakness. Unless you can use multiple Lehane in one deck, you still have to use Rick, Aurelia, Rebecca or maybe even Klaus or combinations of them to pair with your brutes since Sentinel 3-stars are nowhere as good as those of the other clans. Even in a half deck, its still hard to fit Sentinel in because of the high star count.

The only good thing I see going for Lehane at the moment is being a solo 2-star filler for any deck since she can practically survive even without a clan bonus because of her high power and SOB.

Coby

Character Background

He’s been patrolling with Dayton for five years now and for five years he’s had to "physically” intervene, practically on a daily basis, to get his puny partner out of some kind of scrape or other. The worst is when Dayton wants to eat at Borgia’s Palace. Coby only usually just has time to bite into his Montana Burger before he has to start throwing his weight around..

Review

We already reviewed his partner Dayton now it is time to give the spotlight to the star of the week, Coby. Dayton is a card that you want to put in your Sentinel deck on the other hand Coby is a card you would want to build a deck around.

Potentially an 8/7 in a mono-Sentinel deck, Coby is a beast waiting to be unleashed. No doubt he is a great card but does Sentinel have enough good cops out there to help him bring law and order in Clint City? With his partner against crime Dayton he would be able to do a sweet two-hit KO, while Rick and John who also benefits from a mono-Sentinel deck will provide some muscle, Luis is good enough to be your staple SOA so the only thing a mono-Sentinel deck lack is SOB (Josh doesn’t have the power to be a good SOB).   

We already know what Alec can do, but is Coby good enough to be the next big thing? It depends if Sentinel has enough good cards to support the new four-star beast in town we might just see a new tier 1 mono-clan deck other than Rescue.

Dayton

Character Background

Fortunately Dayton’s partner Coby, who he’s worked with now for 5 years, is always there to hold him back if they run into the Montana on patrol. If it weren’t for Coby, Dayton’s impulsive ways, coupled with his puny physique, would have long ago earned him a prolonged stay in hospital.

Review

This week the Sentinel got two solid recruits, Dayton and Coby. With those two around there will be law and order in Clint City after the chaos that is brought upon by the Nightmare. First off is the reckless “lethal weapon” Dayton.

A 7/2 for a three star would make you choose Carlos instead but with his ability he suddenly becomes a 7/5. Compare to John he doesn’t need to be in a mono-clan deck to be at his best, cause of this he is a good choice for a Sentinel half-deck. His only down side is that is useless against popular cards like Kolos and Blaaster who has some nasty ability that you want to stop, in that department Luis will be a better choice. 

Overall he is a good card especially is not facing any SOA but unfortunately for him his partner Coby is the star of this week’s card release.
