    I love that Q is basically a slasher villain in fighting game form if you're great at parrying. Just standing there taking hits with no reaction, taking his sweet time until he finally decides to end you with clumsy overwhelming strength. Even his parry is just "You got something on my jacket."

    When you were definining what made Phoenix Wright bad, I couldnt help but laugh. In Ace Attorney, this is EXACTLY how every trial goes. Phoenix is on the back foot, and has to claw for any advantage he can get, until the "gotcha." Then, the amazing Cornered theme kicks in, and you feel triumphant. The way they incorporated that into UMVC3 was awesome. Great video!

    I love how Phoenix having 1 million HP harkens back to his absurd shows of durability in three of his games. In Trials & Tribulations, he fell off a burning rope bridge several stories into a raging river… and came out not only in one piece but merely caught a cold for a day. Then in Apollo Justice, Phoenix got rammed by a car hard enough to fly into a nearby telephone pole face first… and emerged with a sprained ankle for a couple of days. And back to Trials & Tribulations for a bit, Phoenix back in college ATE a glass bauble laced with trace amounts of poison (needing to break it for easy consumption first) and suffered neither lacerations nor poisoning. Oh, last one from Justice for All, someone brained him with a fire extinguisher in his sleep; he came down with amnesia for about an hour right before a case and won the whole thing before finally regaining his memories.

    An important note about Wright: In MvC 3, X-Factor has different 'levels' based on how many of your other characters have been KO'd. With no casualties, you get a level 1 X-Factor, and when you're on your last character, you get the most powerful level 3 X-Factor.
    Unless you're playing Wright, who ALWAYS gets level 3 X-Factor, regardless of how many of his allies are KO'd.

    There are a couple hidden buffs for Phoenix Wright:
    1) his jumping objection isn’t actually an overhead, but everyone thinks it is. Combined with the last hit of his “steel samurai maya smelting” super hitting low, he can either go for a true unblockable with his forward + medium trip or a fake one
    2) he has a glitch in the game where if he activates level 1 X factor while in turnabout mode, he gets the level 3 damage bonus instead for the duration. This combined with the fact that his level 3 hyper combo being full screen 0 frame startup means that he will one shot anyone in the cast
    3) his “bridge to the turnabout” (objection) while in trial mode will activate his turnabout mode on assists and can be easily comboed into from a TAC or DHC.
    There’s also a very neat touch where as his mode improves to trial and turnabout, not only do his special moves (and evidence uses) become way better, but his confidence of using the moves improves and is reflected in the animations

    • @hi.im.iris69420
      @hi.im.iris69420 6 месяцев назад +17

      The second one is not true. It is not a glitch and it is not the base level 3 x factor damage boost. It is actually a hard coded 100% damage boost in turnabout, whereas his base l3 x factor is only 85% damage boost.

    @gengarisnotinsmash... 6 месяцев назад +82

    So small addition to the pokemon trainer section:
    Type effectiveness overall doesn't hurt the character all that much. After all, it's only a problem for what is already the worst of the three. The thing that REALLY kills PT is swapping speed. In ultimate, swapping is very fast, and combined with its invincibility it even makes for a good combo breaker. In brawl, however, it takes MULTIPLE SECONDS to swap. If you had any advantage before, swapping meant your opponent got a free neutral reset at WORST. Combined with stamina forcing you to swap every so often, it made PT incredibly clunky and awkward to play. In all honestly, buffing the swap speed was the single biggest buff PT recieved in ultimate.

You can see that meter right below a player's healthbar. The specifics of how Burst works is not important at the moment, but I just want to clarify that Burst does not use Tension, or else that'd be very broken 😅.

If the low tier is a generic and bland copy of, say, an established archetype/theme then the appeal of using said character seems to drop off a cliff. Whereas the mystery man in a trenchcoat who fights with brute force, or the egyptian mummy that is frankly bizarre even in VSav, have that interest that 'Bloke who is the main character with a different colour effect and worse frame data' just wouldn't have.

    The funny thing about the stamina mechanic on Pokemon Trainer is that it actually affected the Pokemon very differently. For Squirtle, having a low stamina was arguably a GOOD thing is it made opponents easier to juggle (a big deal in Brawl with its miniscule hitstun), racking up much more damage overall in spite of individual hits being weaker. But for Ivysaur, it was an absolute death knell, especially since she's already the least effective member of the team in Brawl.

    @Terumimi 6 месяцев назад +10

    One of my absolute favorite low tiers of all time is Yuuki Terumi from Blazblue. He's the definition of rush down, NEEDING to be in his enemy's face to do anything. And he can actually put on some pretty decent pressure. His main mechanic is that he gets meter VERY easily, as his drive attacks (unique button that every character gets) gives him insane meter gain even on block. However, because of this he is incredibly meter reliant. He only has 3 special moves, the rest of his major moves all being his distortion drives (supers). Hell, even his DP is a DD. Not only that but his damage is generally VERY low without meter. If you do have meter though, although he has some AMAZING moves (his dp is great, he has a 50/50 with 2 of his DDs, he has a solid anti-keepaway super (though this costs 100 meter), he has an AMAZING combo ender that cashes out all of his meter for insane damage, and if you have the opportunity, his astral heat (instakill) is REDICULOUSLY easy to combo into, meaning that if he snowballs you it is OVER.)
    On the other hand, he has a dashing super that, while a good combo tool, has 0 invin making it bad to get in, and has an infamously bad counter super, colloquially known as a 50 meter taunt.
    But the thing that make Terumi REALLY special is his overdrive (a special install every character gets) which allows you to STEAL METER. All of his supers become better, he gets access to a loop that gives him TONS of meter in an instant and allows him to essentially do 200 meter combos, and that combo ender super pretty much deletes the other person's meter. But overdrive comes so slow, and if you use it then you can't burst.

    You neglected to mention one of the biggest problems with Pokemon Trainer: The insanely long time it takes to actually switch Pokemon.
    It wouldn't have made the character viable if it *was* faster, but the switch speed being so slow is just another scoop for the crap sundae. It's so bad that in the clip at 10:48, the Trainer literally sacrifices advantage to switch Pokemon and is STILL minus even after Diddy recovers.
    The only way you're not eating whatever punish your opponent cooks up that day is if you switch while they're Star KO'd. Which is kinda hard to do if your Pokemon is fatigued and therefore CAN'T KILL. Also you can't use it in the air, either.
    All of this was fixed in Ultimate, so not only can you find more opportunities to switch in that game, but switching even has defensive utility as a pseudo-airdodge.
    Just gonna throw this in as well, but Squirtle would be a solid high tier if he was on his own with no fatigue. He has some really neat tech and a solid moveset. Really the only thing keeping the character out of bottom tier.

    Pheonix wright and Q are my favorite type of low tiers, where if you manage to achieve certain difficult conditions you get buffs that make you as good as or even better than the game’s top tiers. The type of buffs that would be completely broken on mid or high tier characters (replacing any high tier or above’s taunt with Q’s would make them completely broken, like if you get knocked down at the start of the round you probably lose because suddenly they have more health than Hugo). I like this because you can play a low tier but get the opportunity to feel powerful.

      @@MrMixtape It's all good, there's A LOT of misinfo about MvC3 out there (like Vergil being #1). Strange wasn't seen as too strong very early on, but as people started rocking teams like Nova/Spencer/Strange it became clear that he's a pretty strong support overall. He's still not used as much because Doom is in the game and Doom is legit the best support character in the game, that's why Nova/Spencer/Doom is an alternate version of the team I mentioned earlier that works very well.

    Junpei is great if you can convince your friends to play best of 5 rounds. Also while shadow junpei can get to victory cry state way easier nothing is scarier than regular junpei stalling you out in awakening and gaining more and more awakening HP over time

    I was probably the only person in the world who was a Brawl Pokemon Trainer main and LOVED the stamina mechanic. It really accentuated the team aspect of the character, you shouldnt just be using the one who is strongest(squirtle) hes a little guy who needs support! The only issues are A:the switching is too slow since Brawl loads characters one at a time and B:its exclusively a punishment with no upside, taking time to give up advantage for a character who is likely less suited to a task you needed.
    If it werent such a problem you wouldn't have so much tech discussion on "where are the safest places to switch, and how can we mitigate the consequences?"

    About Phoenix, apparently, the rng seed only changes when you select characters, so if you just immediately rematch without returning to character select, he'll pull items in the same order as the last game.
    Also, apparently, Turnabout mode causes X Factor to always be level 3, regardless of if he has teammates alive or not.

      Dan had a legit infinite that they patched out by "buffing" him. Dan also had a unique mechanic that can have him cancel normals into a taunt back into any normal, which makes his damage output absurd in the right hands.

    something funny about Q, is that if like 2 changes were made, he would be a genuine MENACE in the game

    Theres a problem going on in sequels with low tiers where people will claim "nobody played them and they were bad" as reasoning for them not getting in when the rosters are revealed and its disheartening that people will complain about top tier strengths and then do the same cycle of complaints when the cast is less diverse and everyone starts to play the same. the top tiers are the most picked characters and when the more esoteric and "fun characters" are left out all that does is force players to go with the "stronger" strategy from the characters that are left.

    Little Mac from Smash Ultimate is a character that despite being firmly Low Tier in both of the games he's been in, has become more closer to his portrayal from his home series, has gotten closer in viability to the rest of the cast, and has become a pretty cool spectacle to watch thanks to top Macs like Peanut. I know this video is almost a year old, but he is a very interesting case of a low tier.

    Wright and Junpei being among the best low-tier characters seems a little too perfect. Though Yosuke being high tier is a lot less in-character. They're both the butt monkeys of their respective teams after all. (though Ryuji really mixed things up by being the butt monkey but also one of the powerhowses of his team like his fellow blondes Kanji and Aigis, rather than being the speedy agile one)

    Phoenix is highkey a solo character.

    Marvel vs Capcom 3 has some of the most creative and cool characters in any fighting game ever and it is so devastating to me how these designs don't necessarily pay off when faced with the way core mechanics are handled. In nearly any other game characters like Phoenix Wright or Amaterasu would be beautifully multidimensional and standout characters but they just really don't get the opportunity to play to their strengths and it hurts
