Fun facts about Fire Marth aka our boy

[odinNJ]

300th post all right.

So, let's talk about cool Roy stuff that makes you
Laugh.

Fair is not a sword attack; it doesn't make a sword sound.

Revers upB can kill puff from zero.

He makes funny noises when he gets hit really hard.

He doest have a scabbard in game.

Reverse fair off of ledge can kill falco from
0.

What are your favorite facts about Roy?

 

[Ripple]

he has 3 different up-bs

he has a hit box on his head on every one of his moves

he has no hitbox on f-smash until the sword is in front of his shoulder's. this is what older players refer to as " the roy zone" since the sword clearly goes through players who recover above it

 

[R:U:N]

he takes so much hitstun that I don't even need to tailwhip with pk thunder to edgeguard
Odin can tell you all about that

 

[darkoblivion12]

Roy's can reset with almost every attack's sourspot.

Roy's good matchups are just less in the their favor.

Roy sounds like a truck.

Roy's sword sounds like foam when you're hitting someone with foam.

I always scream, "FOAM" whenever I hit someone with sourspot fsmash.

Playing like a ghetto Marth actually does work vs most bad characters and dumb FFers

I think Roy is really good against people that like to jump (in a general sense)

Roy's d-tilt breaks fake CC a lot earlier than people give it credit for

Everyone always thinks his nair is really useful when they first see it SHFFLed but then they realize it's really mediocre for the same reasons Marth's nair is meh relative to his main moves

This is old, but if you counter Puff's rest she doesn't get hit because of the invincibility frames on it.

An improperly DIed knee can kill from as low as 25. I hate falcon

 

[KirbyKaze]

It can kill you at 0 if he edgecancels into something a la Scar

 

[knightpraetor]

why would you ever DI a knee wrong? oh you were trying to avoid being combo video footage..how FOOOLISH....ACCEPT YOUR FATE!

 

[odinNJ]

I meant if you were like clicking ftilt but get
Like randomly kneed.

 

[darkoblivion12]

Or you could Pyro DI that ****. Always straight down. Real men only DI down.

 

[odinNJ]

Nah man, real men DI towards the nearest blast box out respect for your opponent

 

[Bing]

no di is where its at guys, dont be so silly. gosh.

 

[darkoblivion12]

No matter how good your DI is, every character can probably guaranteed 0-death you from one hit. Huzzah roy.

 

[odinNJ]

I was playing Roy against RUN today. Ganon is stupid, sheik is not as bad as I thought, even with chain grabbing. Ganon is stupid

 

[exarch]

He says "Potato"

DED >>V

 

[darkoblivion12]

DED>>> tortilla

 

[odinNJ]

DED >>v^ potato SAUCE

 

[Bing]

Sheik vs Roy is still bad for Roy... clearly he just didnt know the MU...

 

[odinNJ]

no he knows it, i just like the fact that roy can get sheik on the ground. and i meant not as bad as compared to gaynondorf. shes still amazing and still ***** the pants off roy but id prefer a sheik to a ganon (even tourney sheiks who ive played)

 

[Bing]

Oh Okay, makes more sense now.

 

[♡ⓛⓞⓥⓔ♡]

No matter how good your DI is, every character can probably guaranteed 0-death you from one hit. Huzzah roy.

Even Falco?

This is news to me

E:

Ganon is harder than Sheik IMO

 

[camerino1]

No. Counter EVERYTHING.
