(0-0-0) Questionable Legal Battle

I was not voting, but can you tell me how Saul will counter mind/soul hax? And what is range from both of them?
 
Doesn't look like he could, although to be fair, the Mind and Soul Manipulation is somewhat lightweight since apparently it only does critical damage when the foe really has something to hide.

I’ve haven’t watched any Breaking Bad stuff but wouldn’t Saul have like, a shit ton of deep dark secrets?

The mind/soul hax only works in a setting where Phoenix is attempting to reveal a secret from the other person. It also is completely irrelevant as he can just... shoot him as he's doing it.

It doesn't even do physical damage

Me either, but just from his profile he seems to be a corrupt lawyer (and those guys are kinda nasty), so... Yeah, I think Saul might be ******.

Dude, did you forget about verse equalization?

What... does that have to do with anything?

It's right there in the Standard Battle Assumptions page.:

Verse equalization: Similar supernatural aspects of verses get equalized in a reasonable fashion. So a supernatural energy that almost everyone in a Verse has, which is necessary to fight the characters of said Verse, will be assumed to be the equivalent energy that the opponents use in their techniques so that a proper fight can happen.

Furthermore, attacks that require a special type of energy to be effective, like anti-magic requiring magic, will be assumed to work against the energies of different Verses, as long as they are somehow similar and the mechanics are somehow compatible with the known mechanics behind the energies from different Verses. For example, mind control resistance by being a capable mind user would also work against other Verses, but mind control resistance through a strong will would not necessarily work against mind control from other Verses. It is also important to note that characters won't lose or gain any abilities or resistances which they do or do not inherently possess. However, if an ability has a weakness, condition, caveat, or limitation, consistently shown throughout its use (such as not working on characters under a specific condition, like energy gap) or stated by a valid and uncontradicted statement, then it should be applicable after the equalization.

Equalization works highly on a case-by-case basis, so many relevant cases should be discussed in the versus thread itself.
 
Phoenix's Lie detector only helps when he's investigating stuff, it's basically useless in an actual fight
 
Saul one-shots Phoenix with a gun, right?
Don't think Phoenix's durability is too high up into 9-B
 
Phoenix's durability is pretty alright.

I think at this dura it'd be like trying to take down a bear with a small pistol.
 
So this basically means that Saul has range advantage.
he'd definitely need at least like 2 clips to kill Phoenix Wright
