An abbreviation of his B-forward move, the Double-Edge Dance. This has been a reply that is itself an example of Dorky Erik's Dimwittedness. Erik the Appreciator 03:27, July 14, 2007 (EDT)

Dubbing Roy's quotes in SSBM

Since Roy wasn't given an English voice actor for Super Smash Bros. Melee, I would like someone to portray him in this games. It's a request. --IndigoExtreme (talk) 16:35, 13 March 2009 (UTC)

Marth Stronger Than Roy?

I think Roy is stronger when it comes to close range, ground attacks, and specials. I only think that Marth is stronger in air attacks and far range. Doc King (talk) 00:44, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

Gameplay

As one of the few Roy mains (i.e. someone who mains Roy specifically, and not Marth) I think one major point in gameplay that is mostly missed is the differences between Roy's play style and Marth's. The biggest difference is Roy's ability to use counter as a kill move. Many Marth mains do not take advantage of Counter as a kill move (because of their knowledge of how Math's counter works). For example, in my experience in tournaments, the Roy vs Gannondorf matchup relies heavily on counter, since gannondorf's down-air countered is almost always an instant kill. Yet Marth's is not. Is counter not mentioned for a reason, or is it just that competitive players don't believe it is a useful move? Sylvanelite (talk) 01:17, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

Also, why don't many competetive players use his neutral special for edgeguarding? Logically, it is a good edgeguarder, is it not? Anon 02:03, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

What? This isn't eruption, it just hits the ground in front of him, nothing below him.--MegaTron1XD 02:09, July 22, 2010 (UTC)

No, but if you charge it while the opponent is off stage, and release just as they're comming back... Mr. Anon teh awsome 03:05, July 22, 2010 (UTC)
