Roy (SSBU): Difference between revisions

|neutral1dmg=7.5%/4.8%

|neutraldesc=A reverse-gripped upward slash. A great combo starter, due to launching at a rather high angle and having low knockback and ending lag, making it relatively low risk with high reward. It can easily start combos into a grab, tilts, aerials, [[Double-Edge Dance]] or [[Blazer]]. In particular, it is notoriously effective at comboing into a [[reverse aerial rush]] back aerial for a highly potent KO confirm. Finally, its sourspot reaches low enough that it can hit opponents hanging on ledge. Its combination of traits make it widely considered as one of the best neutral attacks in the game.

|ftiltdmg=12.5% (sweetspot), 9% (near), 8% (far)

|ftiltdesc=A reverse-gripped downward slash. Comes out on frame 8 with somewhat low ending lag. The sweetspot is very powerful for a tilt considering its speed, being capable of KOing at under 130% from center-stage when sweetspotted. If tippered, it is the second strongest forward tilt in the game, narrowly beating {{SSBU|Ike}}'s and only losing slightly to {{SSBU|Incineroar}}'s.

|utiltdmg=12%/7%

|utiltdesc=A reversed gripped overhead arcing slash starting from Roy's front. Like forward tilt, it has remarkably good speed and power when sweetspotted, capable KOing at around 120%. However, the ending lag is quite high, making whiffs punishable, and it is not as effective for anti-airing compared to most up tilts due to Roy's reverse sweetspot mechanic.

|dashdmg=13%/9%

|dashdesc=An inward horizontal slash across the ground. Very strong for a dash attack, KOing at around 110% near the ledge. However, it has noticeable startup and high ending lag, which makes it very unsafe on shield.

|fsmashdmg={{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|20}} (close), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|17}} (mid), {{ChargedSmashDmgSSBU|12}} (far)

|fsmashdesc=Rotates his body to perform a lunging, two-handed downward slash. Despite coming out rather quickly (frame 13), it has extremely high damage and knockback and is one of the strongest forward smashes in the game when sweetspotted, capable of KOing as low as 40% with max rage. However, it has high ending lag and a short duration. It is based on his regular attack as a Great Lord in ''Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade''.

|uairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|9}}/{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|6}}

|uairdesc=A backflipping, upward arcing slash. Useful for juggling, and the sweetspot can even KO at very high percentages. The sourspot can lead into other aerials while falling.

|dairdmg={{ShortHopDmgSSBU|15}}/{{ShortHopDmgSSBU|10}}

|dairdesc=A two-handed, downward slash between his legs, similarly to Ike's down aerial. Has the capability to [[meteor smash]] when sweetspotted, though it can be very difficult to aim due to its slim hitbox. It's also risky to use offstage due to Roy's fast falling speed and poor recovery, possibly causing a [[self-destruct]]. This move has a [[flame]] effect. The late sourspot has niche combo ability when landing, including into forward smash at the ledge.

|uthrowdmg=6%

|uthrowdesc=Heaves the opponent upward with his free hand. Roy's only throw with KO potential, starting around 185%.

|dthrowdmg=5%

|dthrowdesc=A one-armed body slam. Roy's only combo throw and is very reliable due to the amount of followups it can potentially set up into, though, it has very low hitstun. Can follow up into neutral and up aerial at low percents depending on the opponent's DI.
