Yea you have to only lightly tap down or back, then immediately jump, direct into the stage and WL

Roy has a rather fast and difficult WL, definitely not for people new to ledge-dashing.

I always fast fell until now. Useful info.

So how is Side B Roys best aerial? Does he have a follow up for it or something?

I have not heard of SideB being hit best aerial, but Flare Blade (neutral B) is his strongest KB move even at no charge. Its not until like higher percents or a tipper Bair that his other moves get more knockback. Only offset is its terrible lag at lower percents.

Side b should not be thrown out too much in the air. If you get hit after using it, you will lose the stall that you get from the first airborne use, reducing your already abysmal recovery even further.

Yea I think he meant neutral B, it has high initial hitstun uncharged and covers a massive range around Roy pretty quickly
