The guide's very helpful for a starter in Smash and a little boy that wants to pick up our boy. Gives some good things to know a bit about the Young Lion I also wanted to say that Jab>Dthrow>Jab>DThrow>Jab>Fair>Walk a bit and then Dtilt (Or Dash Attack) is a very good to get the enemy to ~50%.

Thank you for the review! I appreciate it!

Love the guide, very helpful! As I Roy main myself, I found out recently that Flare Blade actually got nerfed to the point were it won't OHKO heavier characters (especially Bowser) and a good porion of the medium characters from across stage.

Thank you for the review! And I actually had no idea about that nerf, so I'll add that in. Thanks!

Great guide! Quick question, should I try get the opponent into the air and get some aerials, or keep them on the ground?

thank you for the kind review! I'd try to keep a strong ground game going as long as you can, and if your opponent starts slipping away, throw them into the air and begin your aerial combos.

This is a great guide so far! I personally have been experimenting with Dthrow and its combos. So far, Pummel > Pummel > Dthrow > Utilt > Dtilt > DED (FFDD) is my go-to at >30%, but I'm doing a bit more "field tests" (read: FG with semi-good guys). Just be sure to look at Dthrow, it has amazing combo and reset potential.

Nice! Been looking for a good Roy guide and think I found the one!
Flukey
Great Guide, maybe talk about the ken-ish combo
not a true combo but can catch people of guard

This is great. But I have a question, should I play Roy as a Rush-Down or should I just wait until I see and opening?
Shuko
Shuko
Thank you for the review! And I would try to rush them down more than waiting for an opening, though don't get cocky

Great guide, except megaman is more of a mid range or close range fighter.

Thank you for the guide, it's explain a lot of thing but I think that would be great if you add some True Combos. I'm trying to play as him, but I don'T have a real one. D-Throw + UpB is a good one but dodgeable. If you could find nice True Combos, your guide would be perfect! Good job for that guide :)

Interesting insight on strategies and cool data. Can't wait to see this guide develop. Roy's our boy!

Roy's counter does 1.35x damage, I saw it in the tips in game.

Sweet! I was worried there were never gonna be guides for any of the 4 DLC characters. But then you shined down from the heavens, and brought us this promising guide!
I may be incorrect, but doesn't a fully charged neutral-b OHKO all the characters at 0%?
Shuko
Shuko
That is correct. And thank you!
HoodsxX
Awesome start so far. I've found out just labbing up smash as I'm in the lab right now tip for uhcharged was 13% and fully charged I got 21%

Shuko
Thank you for figuring that out! I added that in.
