A little late, but congrats on winning with Phoenix Wright
You know, this is inspiring me to continue with my own Wright team, Hsien-ko/Phoenix Wright/Sentinel. While a different team, it plays pretty similar; Golden Hsien-ko gets them off like Hulk, and Sent keeps them away like Doom. It gets discouraging to lose so much with Lei-Lei and PW, and always seeing nothing but generic rushdown teams like Nova/Vergil/Wesker or Magneto/Dante/Akuma or whatever makes me feel like I’m doing something wrong by not building a generic rushdown team of my own. But seeing you rocking Phoenix Wright and the Hulk and winning makes me want to keep on going with my little oddball team too.
Cool I live in the east coast so maybe my team can do well in the scene. Seeing Die’s runaway game placing high in weeklys I think Wright can do well in my region.
Great job Poltergust. I’ve actually been thinking about using that same team since I already started running PW/Doom, and I already knew Hulk and really like a defensive assist, but Hawkeye picks up a lot of slack from my Doom who is still a work in progress.
No, I need to win the season. There are still 3 more ranbats to go before the season ends (or is it 4?).
EDIT: OK, it’s 4. Also, even placing first this season does not guarantee me a free ride to EVO. I need to face off against the winner of the next season as well to determine who gets the trip to EVO (of course, if I somehow manage to also win that I’m in automatically).
good job polt. everyone you played seemed booty, but your gameplan is really tight and you cover yourself really well, even if you have to pull like a dozen pieces of evidence.
Is there any in depth information on the maya shield? Id like to know what affects how much damage/how many attacks it can eat.
when you say unscaled, does that mean that she takes full damage from all moves and chain combos and the like dont scale down in damage when she absorbs them?
and for example lets say im using virgil against you.
you call maya, I do stinger (forward heavy. 80,000 damage) to get close and then go into the Laucher - Heavy loop in an attempt to break her (Virgils Standing H and Launcher both do 80K as well)
stinger - launch - heavy = 240K.
When I do the next launch for 80K and she breaks, how does that work, does the shield get broken flat out and I hit phoenix? Does the shield absorb the entire hit and than go away? or does the shield subtract the difference (in this case, the shield would have 10k left. 80k launch - 10k = 70,000) and let me hit phoenix for the difference?
I’m not too sure on that one, actually. There have been times where I didn’t get hit when Maya gets knocked away, and there have been other times where I do. Heck, unless my eyes were deceiving me I could have sworn that the attack that hits both me and Maya actually does 0 damage, although I still go through hit-stun.
And yes, it’s always unscaled damage. That’s why she can only shield through beam supers roughly halfway through them, why GR knocks her away in like 3 hits, etc.
