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. 
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.
I don’t know about you guys, but I’m not on a grand quest to prove that my character is good. I’m happy to just acknowledge that he’s bad and play him anyway.
