Did Someone Say Sentinel?
Yay, one of my personal favourites, and likely a clan that many beginners will start out with. Here we go:
4
5
Attack +12
Attack +8
Sentinel is another clan that is versatile enough to produce either a half-deck or a full-deck; the choice is up to you, as both are pretty strong.
Starting with the half-deck, you should already have Rebecca if you decided to get the Action starter deck, and she's a solid card until you afford Aurelia (if you didn't choose the Action deck, just skip over Rebecca and go for Aurelia). Next, I would go for Luis, because he's one of only two SOA cards in the Sentinel clan (in more advanced decks, you'll either replace him with that other Sentinel SOA card (Hawk) or your other half-deck will provide you with enough SOA). In any case, I think Luis is worth the investment for a beginner. After that, go for Dayton, a very solid 3-star, and finish out the deck with either Malia or Skiner, depending on star-count. I'd go with Malia because she's a very cheap option for a decent 4-star with the useful Stop ability.
If you want to get a Sentinel full-deck, a route I would recommend over the half-deck, get all the cards mentioned above, and add John, Rick, and Skiner. That should leave you with enough place for a leader (Hugo is once again a great option once you hit level 15). John and Rick have the Support ability and they'll thrive in a full-deck, while Skiner often forces your opponent to pill or suffer considerable damage.
To wrap it up, the Sentinel half-deck has its strengths, the primary one being it's easy to transition to from the Action starter deck. Rebecca, Carlos and Zdrone are competent placeholders for the cards mentioned above, and you should do very well early on (8/10). However, as you progress, you'll find that Luis lacks somewhat in base stats and Malia lacks power for a 4-star. Only Aurelia and Dayton really last you very long, and you'll be looking at fairly expensive cards to fill out the remainder of your half-deck - I would thus advise you to start building another deck after the one above should you choose this path(6.5/10).
The full Sentinel deck is definitely a touch below the full Montana deck, but not by much. I think that the difference between the Action (which contains Sentinel) and the Cool (which contains Montana) starter decks makes up for that, as the former is significant stronger. Otherwise, they definitely have their similarities with the two cheap Support cards, Dayton/Sharon, and the fact that both take full advantage of Hugo (9/10). Much like the Montana full-deck, the Sentinels will also face a decline over time, so make a decision to either jump ship or stay the course once you've built the deck - realize that the best Sentinel cards (Hawk, Coby (another Support card), and Copper) are quite expensive, so choose carefully (7.5/10).
