LeonhartFour 12/05/21 12:15:04 AM #102:	I set my ATM card's number to "0001" because I'm number one! Trials & Tribulations Phoenix and Edgeworth's Dynamic The Hair Flip Maya Fey Dual Destinies - I think I might be the biggest Dual Destinies fan on the board. This isn't an attempt to pat myself on the back. I'm just saying I'm not sure anyone rates the game as highly as I do. 5-2, 5-3, 5-5, and 5-6 are all top 15 caliber cases (actually I guess I'd have to recalibrate this now that we have 10 more cases!), and 5-4 is sneaky good, too. 5-1 is whatever, so it's not like T&T where every case is a hit, but I love it. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney Protagonist Miles Edgeworth The Golden Court (L-3) Simon Blackquill Presenting Your Attorney's Badge to Everyone You Meet Susato Mikotoba - Susato is a delight throughout the entire Great Ace Attorney saga. I like that your sidekick is hyper competent. It reminds me of the few times in the original trilogy when Mia would be channeled and stick around as the sidekick, which was always great. I like that she also has a playful side and her fangirling over Sholmes is fun, too. Oh, and her Serenade theme is fantastic. Cross-examining Animals Ladders vs. Stepladders Damon Gant Dhurke Sahdmadhi Psycho-Locks The Herlock Sholmes "Logic and Reasoning Spectacular" Turnabout Reclaimed (5-6) Justice for All The Mood Matrix The Adventure of the Runaway Room (G1-3) Furio Tigre - The best villains are the ones that get Phoenix personally invested in taking them down. Those mainly exist in the epic cases, but Tigre manages to bring that side of him out in 3-3. The concept of Phoenix having an impostor is brilliant, and then they throw the mindscrew at you that he's nothing like Phoenix aside from having the same hairstyle. The cardboard badge is the height of absurdity in a series that relishes in absurdity, and I loved Phoenix's BIGGEST PHONY OF ALL speech when he takes him down since he doesn't normally give "The Reason You Suck" speeches. G2-4's Dance of Deduction Gregory Edgeworth Enoch Drebber Punished Apollo The Forgotten Turnabout (E2-4) - I'll say this up front: I don't like Blaise. The crying thing with the goggles is stupid. I think he ultimately winds up being kind of toothless despite his bluster, much like Redd White. The rest of the case is great though. Edgeworth willingly relinquishing his badge in order to protect Kay is a powerful moment, as is Kay regaining her memories after he gives her back her Promise Notebook. I really liked how they used the storeroom to do a bunch of throwbacks to previous cases. That was a nice touch. Ryutaro Naruhodo Zak Gramarye is a Jerk - A fantastic webcomic that points out all the terrible stuff Zak Gramarye did during the events of Apollo Justice despite the fact that he's not really presented as a bad guy in the game itself. It really highlights the problems with the writing in that game, but at least you'll be laughing about it! Ema Skye Kay Faraday Spirit Channeling Polly - A scenario that seems so utterly unbelievable until there was a recent real life story about potentially calling a parrot as a witness! The real star of the Polly cross-examination is Manfred von Karma. In addition to retraining the freakin' parrot to ensure there are no loose ends, he has several fantastic one-liners, including the one that marks the top tier of this ranking topic! In fact, I've always wanted to name my dog Phoenix because of one of his lines, except the dog I adopted a couple years ago was a girl, so I settled for Maya instead. Investigation ~ Core 2001 I Can't Defeat Tree Man Herlock Sholmes Dancing Animations Daley Vigil/Gossip Robin Newman Believe me, any comic relief I may provide is entirely unintentional. Ini & Mimi Miney Sebastian Debeste Presenting Profiles - I am all for as much dialogue as possible when I play Ace Attorney, so when Justice for All added the ability to present profiles, I was thrilled. I'm sad they've abandoned it since the original trilogy, but at the same time, I sort of get it. It's not used in investigations in any meaningful way since they can just give you a prompt to choose a profile when it's necessary. Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 Phoenix Wright 3-1 Phoenix's Shirt and What It Really Stands For THE MURDER WEAPON WAS UDON DOUGH - If there was a moment that epitomized the quote that categorizes this tier, it's this one. 6-4 is ridiculous in many ways, but none moreso than this. I am thankful Revisualizaton exists for this alone. Olive Green Edgeworth's Cravat Dahlia's Constipation The Fact That Phoenix Once Tipped a Cow Peace, Love, and Understanding Klavier Gavin Ga'ran Sigatar Khura'in - First off, I love the Audience Chamber theme that accompanies her scenes when you meet her in her capacity as queen. As an opponent, she starts off strong because she can basically rewrite the law as she sees fit and essentially declares Dhurke and company Guilty with a wave of her hand. However, the first time the judge decides she can't get away with that, she loses that mystique and she's not really a great opponent anymore afterwards. The final TAKE THAT when you take her down is still satisfying though. Juror No. 4 Japanifornia The Great Ace Attorney - I'll assume this is the first game only and not both games in totality. Ranking the first game is hard because the format is so strange. You have two trial-only cases, one case that has no trial at all, and no case with multiple days. Many of the mysteries presented aren't answered until the second game, so it's not self-contained like all the other entries are. It's still a lot of fun though! Moe's Fresh Prince Reference The Adventure of the Clouded Kokoro (G1-4) - I think this case kind of epitomizes how strange the entire first game is in general (see above). This is clearly a set-up for its companion case in the second game. You enter the trial day with literally three pieces of evidence in your inventory. One of them is your armband, and another is a map. That being said, I love how they use the Garridebs and Beates as married couple foils. Joan is the worst though. Multiple Witnesses Mechanic Case 1s That Tease Dynamics in the Final Case The Adventure of the Great Departure (G1-1) Soseki Natsume Save Scumming - I don't have a problem with save scumming in any game. I save at the beginning of every cross-examination my first time through now. However, my first time through the original game, I would not allow myself to save except when the game prompted me to do so. I actually made it all the way to the final save point in 1-5, but that last segment is so freakin' long that after a few failures I gave up and never looked back on save scumming. --- http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/080/145/638.png https://imgur.com/WqDcNNq <cite>LeonhartFour posted [p:960632567] in Leonhart r...
