Overview

Roy throws the opponent downward onto the ground with his open hand, yielding minimal knockback appropriate for certain follow-ups. At low percentages, can be followed by one or more up tilts, though it might sourspot due to the nature of Roy's Binding Blade. Against heavier characters and players who do not act out of it properly, can fairly reliably permit at least two up tilts after use. At mid-range percentages, DI notwithstanding, the height achieved by the opponent after the throw offers an opportunity for an up aerial.
