I respond by using Wright and letting people decide for themselves whether they are going to change their mind or not.

I let my lawyer do the talking.

My Eulogy Post for our beloved Phoenix Wright.

So long my good Lawyer. I will miss you.

Anybody using him after this?
NeoRussell

After a few hours of sulking, I have eased my mind in regards to Phoenix Wright nerf.
I will still use him as a character. I just won’t find a need to gather evidence as much.
We Phoenix Wright players just have to change our way of using him.
We have to use him AS AN ACTUAL CHARACTER. Fight with him and just find the proper time to investigate.
If we get lucky and get all 3 evidence, we shouldn’t try to go to Objection Mode as quickly as possible anymore.
The benefit of that mode has clearly changed.
Phoenix Wright players, don’t give up. Just change your way of playing him.
Here are the current positives:
[LIST]
[]Maya comes out quicker.
[
]LVL3 On Turn-About is still powerful.
[]Careful when calling him out as an assist during Turn-About now. I am guilty (no pun intended) of this as well.
[
]Call out Phoenix Wright assist only when your hitting or they are guarding your attacks. It will at least contain them for you to setup.
[*]He still has powerful combos.
[/LIST]
Learn his combos peeps, we’ll need to rely on them more this time around:

There is no hate for the lawyer now.

What? There’s more hate now than ever. From mostly the same people as before; immature children who’re butthurt that Megaman didn’t get in.

Cause apparently everyone who’s dropping him is a fraud and everyone who’s sticking by him is a joke.

Guys…PW is a good character. How? I’m not talking about turnabout turnabout mode. I think when it was told you had to get three pieces of good evidence. Every PW thought that was the way to play him. It’s not…I been playing PW as a a character. And with these buffs, I have even less of a reason to go into turnabout mode now. I’ll still gather evidence to build a good keepaway game. PW ISN’T ass. It’s just that pw players and the people that think he’s bad have been approaching him the wrong way. And yes that’s goes for Ultradavid as well. Now if I were to make a tier list. I would say PW is mid tier at best.

^ Old news. >__>
Wright with 3 good pieces (i.e. a good set for zoning) of evidence in trial mode with a bar for Judge and xfc? lol, zone all day. Knife, vase, photo anyone?

it’s the best type of news broski.

True. Question is, will anybody listen? D:
On a completely unrelated note, I wish bridge to the turnabout had a different input than Hold it. Hate trying to use my stun poke and getting Objection when I don’t want it instead. =/

Well, UMVC3’s players overall are braindead losers that don’t want to think. I mean if one of Morrigan’s best moves was a boob glomp super that drains all of your meter… Everyone would think that is her best move.

Try trolling them back. You have no idea how much fun it is, especially when they take you seriously. :wink:

Pointing out a bad character is bad=/=hate

Tell them that hating Phoenix Wright can get you shot in Texas

I tell people He’s a better Wesker, and watch the sodium levels rise when they realize that it was in fact Wesker who actually committed the crime.

Honestly, the best way to respond to this is prove them wrong. As much as I hate to admit it, PW by himself is far from perfect. He does have awesome combo capabilities that people haven’t realized because they’re so fixed on reaching turnabout.Try out some combos with him in training mode [while in trail mode, WITHOUT three good pieces of evidence] and you might see what I’m talking about. I’m preparing for a thread that i want to start and have it as the basis for PW players, both advanced and those who have interest in picking him up or want to improve. The plan is the put up his frame date (someone already has,i’ll ask them for permission to borrow the info), his hitboxes, (Feenie is the only one I’ve seen who has this info as far as I know, and with his permission I’d like to put that up) his strategy/battle plan as suggested by the official strategy guide, max’s tutorial video, move specifications (such as Illuminating Point being jump cancelable) and my own strategy for playing PW along with some combos. If anyone reading this would like to help put this thread together with me, feel free to contact me. Otherwise it might take about a month but it will definitely be worth it. My hopes are that people will actually fight with PW, outside of Turnabout, making that mode all the much better once you do reach it. My logic is, if you can kick ass in trail mode, you will be a god in turnabout mode =]. Some quick advice though, if you want to be effective, you will have to build a team around PW. Without doing this, it will be nearly impossible to play him effectively. Although he has basic combos that can lead to at least 600,000-700,000 with 1 meter, the problem is connecting that first hit with his poor reach.

I think PW is awesome

He wears a suit FFS

hey, I’ve been noticing that too =] maybe we can exchange some information for a new thread I want to make

Wow, I wish I would of seen Neorussel’s video before I got overly excited about my idea. He has a lot of the combos down that I had in mind and seems to know which moves are cancelable. I’ll have to see if I still do the forum, if anything it’ll just be a compilation of the useful info that’s scattered throughout the interweb.

By destroying people with MY Phoenix Wright.
Personally, he actually fits my fighting style pretty darn well.
