And yes, Sentinel actually is ridiculously good but he isn't imba, there are plenty of things you can do to him because he is so big. However, people will always bitch about him because his shit is so easy to pull off, air combo into OTG rocket punch into HC and it's possible to keep going for a dead character. I know most characters have deadly combos as well but they don't do as much damage and are generally harder to pull off. I would put Sentinel at the highest Tier but I wouldn't go as far as to say he's the #1 character like he was in MvC2. Every other character feels about even except some assists clearly are above others so there will definitely be teams out there that are strongest but in this game I wouldn't count any one out.
I think this game will turn more into a skill game than MvC2 and I say that because MvC2 was limited in the characters you could choose. This game however, I feel like there will always be room to improve because every character has it's uses so there will never be a top team but I could be wrong. I'm loving the game so far except the online portion of the game is pretty lack luster. I would have liked more VS. modes than just 3v3, what about custom modes like 4v4, 5v5 or even 2v2 like MvC1, just to change things up. I'm also disappointed by the lobby, I have no idea why we can't spectate ongoing games like MvC2 had on XBL or why lobbies can't allow tournament/KOTH settings so that mulitple people can play at once. At least the good news is that it's a next gen game unlike MvC2 so we'll see updates and new features added, I hope.

Gouken isn't really imba at all and he's tournament legal. Since ever.
It's one thing sentinel having a huge attack power, easy combos and whanot but he can potentially OCV an entire team (more so when someone makes a mistake)
I wouldn't agree with that per say. Sure you might be only limited to teams like MSS, MSP, Scrub, Matrix and whatnot, but it doesn't mean the team itself isn't hard. Hell playing magneto alone is pretty damn hard.
