They missed the Silver Samurai forms, too. Fire being among the worst.

Man this game is so broken. Sentinel deals a crazy amount of damage and takes the least. Akuma has no reason to have such low stamina in this game. Capcom had no idea at all how this game would be played when they developed it.
Don't get me wrong that is part of the fun of MvC2 but I really hope MvC3 doesn't end up so broken, although with huge roster and 3 on 3 teams there are so many combinations balancing the game will inherently be next to impossible.

So you're telling me that a mutant with adamantium-laced bones and an incredibly rapid healing factor takes 20% more damage than Jill Valentine??

It just really goes to show that despite the huge cast, you are so limited as to who you can use.
I mean, I thought I was sort-of good at this game but considering Sentinel is my best character it seriously makes me reconsider :S

Typically, if a character is very fast and deals a lot of damage, they have to lower the character's health to keep it balanced.
Not that there's much balance in this game.

Capcom, come on now, why would a Sentinel be stonger than Juggernaut? Give me a break...
