Remember sulphur can have oxidation states of 6,4,2and -2

2x + 2*(-1) = 0, so x = 1
sulfur oxidation state = +1 in S2Cl2.

Cl is gonna be -1 so that makes S +1

Halogens are always -1, thus 2x+2(-1)=0
2x=+2, x =+1

in your given compound I think the correct formula is SCl2 because sulfur has -2,4,6 and chlorine has1, +-5,7.In writing formula you have to consider its oxidation states.From the given information I think there is no formula of compound S2Cl2.Sorry,i would say it is incorrect,isn't it?
For verification of answer try to look at your periodic table.please.

its probably +1 for S and -1 for CL

Cl = (-1)
S = (+1)
