I just had a Battlegrounds game where I killed the first 6 people 6 turns in a row, then got ready for my final match to go 7 for 7, but he died to the 4th place ghost. -_-

I had more luck with Highlander Mage this month than with Highlander Priest. It's really hard to win in this meta without having at least a few ways to have big, unfair turns and Priest just doesn't have that right now outside of the Highlander package. It's really only a value machine. Meanwhile, Mage has Solarian, Conjurer's Calling, Malygos, the good Reno, and both Dragoncaster and Tortollan to go with Puzzle Box, Power of Creation, and Deep Freeze, PLUS Zephrys and Dragonqueen.

All that said, I only played maybe 80 games of standard all month. Just gonna hang out at Diamond 5 and not care about Legend anymore.

Each time I replay TTYD, I find more little things that bug me. The first game is an absolute classic that holds up in every way except graphical fidelity

These are my thoughts exactly. They were really ambitious with a lot of things, but there's something fundamentally wrong with all but two chapters.

• Chapter 1 is probably as flawless as TTYD gets. Cool set-up, cool dungeon, cool boss fight. Simple.
• The tree's Pikmin-like sections are super annoying and all the rooms look exactly the same so it's really easy to get lost.
• The Glitz Pit is an AMAZING idea, but it just drags on waaaaaay too long. If there were just 10 or 12 fights instead of 20, it'd be perfect.
• The concept of having a bad guy steal your identity and your friends and making you reclaim this is genius, but the actual execution of the chapter is just running back and forth and back and forth between the chapel and the town. Yuck.
• Chapter 5 is pretty good overall, too. Flavio's great, the island setting is good, the dungeon is neat, and Cortez is pretty cool, especially the scene after getting the star. Another super solid chapter.
• The train segment isn't too bad, but Paper Mario 1 already did the whole mystery thing better and then tacked on the best dungeon in the series right afterward. TTYD did not.
• Just completely fuck chapter 7. Chapter 7 is dog shit through and through.

Paper Mario 1 has two bad chapters (4 and 6), and I love the idea behind Shy Guy Toy Box, so it gets a slight pass.

Would be interesting seeing how people would rank these games not including the epic case for each game. Feel like that would affect some games more than others.

Is 1-4 or 1-5 the epic case for AA1?

Actually now that I look at my list, I don't think that changes a single placement of mine, regardless. 3-5 is almost even with 6-5, and the rest of the mid-section is all about even anyway. Plus, 2 is already low and I'm not putting it below E1 or........

uhhhh you know what, maybe this is blasphemous, but I think I'd put AJ over JFA then.
4-1 >>>>>>>>>>>> 2-1
4-2 > 2-2, but it's very close
2-3 > 4-3, but it's very close
AJ wins pretty easy then.

Yeah, 6-5 has slowly and steadily worked its way up to my favorite case in the series. When you first beat it, it's not all that overwhelming, but the more you sit and think about it, the more you realize that it was super high-octane from start to finish and had multiple really really high points, the best of which is definitely the Dhurke reveal. I think it's the one time in AA5 or AA6 that they had a massive reveal like this during a court segment and didn't have the character think out loud to the player "boy I wonder if this happened" before making the player choose it. There's no lead up to it and you have to put it together completely on your own.

3 = 6 > E2 > 5 > 1 > 2 > 4 > E1

A year ago, I think every single game would've been in a different spot on my list. But I've come to terms with just how fucking bad E1 is and how fucking good SoJ is. Went ahead and voted SoJ in the poll since I knew T&T would be way out in front.

Harvey Birdman is not a game if you want an AA-like experience. The gameplay is almost exactly AA, but it's really only made as a parody. Experiencing the game Harvey Birdman is more like watching the show Harvey Birdman than playing the game Ace Attorney. That said, I still enjoyed it for what it was. Just don't pay more than like $5 for the experience, because there's really not much there.

If you get the golden minion after 4 hero powers and go to play it, does that not give you a high-tier discover like a triple would? I kinda assumed that would happen, which means you have a mini-power spike turn that Reno doesn't get at the cost of choosing what minion you get in gold.

When thinking of great stories, I tried to limit it to stories, not so much characters and cutscenes and stuff. Just, if I were to explain the overarching plot of the game, how good would that be. For example, Undertale probably would've been like top 3 for me if I included characters, because characters ARE Undertale. But as for story, humans oppress monsters and then a kid falls in and helps them escape their confinements. Eh, not too intriguing, been done lotsa times before.

Danganronpa is tamer than the Zero Escape characters in the design department. It's just that you can accidentally stumble on scenes that are cringey. Well, in the case of DRV3, there's one mandatory scene like that, but you can just skip the text when it comes up because it's not pertinent to the story whatsoever.

My first two Skeletal Dragons were created by a Soul Mirror that I got from a Renew that I got from a Lazul that I got from my Galakrond hero power. I had another Lazul earlier from a Thoughtsteal that I used to get a Psyche Split, and then my own Lazul got another Psyche Split, which turned those dragons into the ones you see here, which then generated 9 out of the 10 cards in my hand, plus the Veranus on the board.
