Roy (ロイ, Roy) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. He was officially confirmed on June 12th, 2018.
Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4
Aesthetics
As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Roy's model features a more subdued color scheme.
Roy's dashing animation has been altered.
Some of Roy's moves, such as his down aerial, have fire effects added to them.
Roy's sweetspotted moves now use the sound effects from Ike's sword, Ragnell.
Attributes
Roy benefits significantly from Ultimate's mechanics, as the general faster pace of the game and reduction in lag allow him to play more aggressively and makes him more mobile.
Like all characters, Roy’s jumpsquat animation now takes three frames to complete.
Roy's hilt sweetspots have been increased in size.
Roy's air acceleration has been increased.
Roy's double jump covers less distance.
Ground Attacks
Roy's neutral attack appears to have an altered animation, granting it more vertical range.
Dash attack has less ending lag.
Aerial Attacks
All aerials have less landing lag.
Forward aerial's autocancel window has been restored, meaning it now autocancels in a short hop.
Up aerial is stronger.
Down aerial now deals flame damage and ignites the Sword of Seal during the move.
Throws/other attacks
Roy's forward throw is now an elbow strike to the chest, just like Marth's.
Special Moves
As with Marth and Lucina's Dancing Blade, Double-Edge Dance transitions significantly faster into each hit. It can also now be buffered and is much harder to escape from.
Like with most non-storeable charge moves, Roy can now turn Flare Blade to the opposite direction while charging the move.
Roy now removes the Sword of Seals from its sheath once he has finished sheathing it in Critical Hit.
Critical Hit now causes a flaming background to appear once the main hit is unleashed.
