About Sentinel
Sentinel, Artifact creature — shapeshifter, designed by Randy Asplund-Faith first released in Jun, 1994 in the set Legends and was printed exactly in 2 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 4.76.
A deck focused on creature combat and power-based strategies, such as a midrange or control deck, could benefit from including Sentinel in its lineup. Sentinel's ability to adjust its toughness based on the power of a blocking or blocked creature can be a valuable tool for both offense and defense. While there may be other cards with similar effects, Sentinel's versatility and potential for creating favorable combat situations make it a strong contender for inclusion in the right deck, especially if the strategy revolves around manipulating power and toughness interactions.
Rules
10/01/09
You apply power/toughness changing effects in a series of sublayers in the following order: (a) effects from characteristic-defining abilities; (b) effects that set power and/or toughness to a specific number or value; (c) effects that modify power and/or toughness but don’t set power and/or toughness to a specific number or value; (d) changes from counters; (e) effects that switch a creature’s power and toughness. This card’s effect is always applied in (b), which means that effects applied in sublayer (c), (d), or (e) will not be overwritten; they will be applied to the new value.
