Noob. This has been said many times. I'm sorry but you'll just have to accept that Marth is better. Roy might be stronger in some ways, but Marth has way more speed and his strongest attacks are at the tip of his sword. Unlike Roys strongest attacks which are in the middle of his sword.

You're dumb, even Nintendo says that Roy is better, so I'm right :)

it gives Roy 17 out of 25, and it gives Marth 16 out of 25!!

Oh my GOD you are such an idiot! NINTENDO said MARTH was stronger than Roy themselves. How the hell would you know? You don't even work in Nintendo. I have no choice but to give you the STATISTICS!

Marth and Roy

Wavedash length: Marth’s is longer
Running speed: Marth is faster
Taunt length: Not sure, but I think Marth’s is faster?
Marth’s sweetspot is at the very tip of his sword
Roy’s sweetspot is at the center of his sword.
Marth is stronger than Roy.
Marth is heavier than Roy.
Marth’s ground A attack comes out faster continuously than Roy’s.
Roy’s special attacks are stronger.
Roy’s throws are stronger, but Marth can chain throw better
Roy falls faster than Marth.
Roy’s up B is slower than Marth’s and has multiple hits.
Marth’s dair is a spike (not a meteor smash)
Roy’s dtilt sends the opponent up, while Marth’s sends the opponent downwards.
Roy’s Usmash has multiple hits and can “spike” if you hit with the tip of his sword.

Overall Marth is better. Roy isn't as good. Accept it. You can't make Roy better by saying hes better. Maybe if you had proof, we would believe you. STATISTICS don't lie.


Yeah thats right, my statistics never lie!

I liked Roy better than Marth. Whenever I first played as Roy, he seemed more faster and powerful than Marth and ever sinced then I prefered playing Roy over Marth. Also just because you are talking about statistics Lucky_Sharmz19, it doesn't mean that Marth is better than Roy, it depends on the person playing as them. Remember it. I voted for Ganondorf, but I also play as Roy, Link, Mario, and Pikachu.

Not really. If there were two players who were equal in skill, 1 had Marth, and 1 had Bowser, Marth would win, but only by a small margin. The reason why? It is because of the advantages that Marth has over Bowser. Marth is so much better of a character because he has speed, power, weight, strength, priority, and range. Bowser only has power. BUT, speed almost out weighs power in everyway.

So in a Marth vs Roy fight, it would be the same as a Marth vs Bowser fight.

No, they are definitely NOT equal.

Roy has crappy aerial attacks.

Marth has excellant aerial attacks.

Roy has crappy ground attacks and very little range and speed.

Marth has awesome ground attacks and a lot of range and speed.

Marth is floatier than Roy.

Marth has a better and safer recovery than Roy.

Marth can chain throw better than Roy.

Roy's Counter inflicts 1.5 damage back at someone, but its "counter" duration is shorter than Marth's.

Roy's Up B has multiple hits, but does less knock back and damage than Marth's Dolphin Slash.

Marth has a stronger Forward B combo than Roy. Fire doesn't do ****.

Roy's throws are stronger, but Marth can chain throw better.

Marth has a longer wavedash.

Marth's D tilt has a downward trajectory.

Roy's D tilt has an upward trajectory.

Marth's Sweetspot is at the tip of his sword.

Roy's sweetspot is in the middle of his sword.

All of Roy's ground attacks have more lag than Marth's ground attacks.


Who seems to be the better character overall? Marth.

Roy and bowser are completely different characters with different move sets. Also, Bowser would have weight which would make more durable and take more hits than Marth. Also, wouldn't you think that a person would also learn their character's pros and cons and try to utilize the strengths and make the weaknesses work to their advantage? I mean, when I use Ganondorf I manage to use his weight against my opponents. So statistics aren't everything in battle.

Lucky_Sharmz19 can you just stop picking on me? I mean it's MY opinion and MY choice to use Roy over Marth, I just like him better, I am better with Roy, t doesn't mean Roy is better, it just means he's MY best player, most people may think that Marth is better, but that is jsut because they like him better! It goes the same wit hany player and or character combonation.

:laugh: at Marth05!


But short range and fire are bad things in battle. Fire only dispells the effect of a freezie. Not add to the damage you inflict.

You won't have to pay anymore moneyafter you buy it? Or you just have to pay more money after that month is done.
No. Your name will always stay the same, you'll keep your custom avatar and your custom title.
I'm not gonna pay $7.00 for a change of my name , do you think I'm crazy? :laugh:
Luigi+Roy+C.F.+Falco=Domination, I guess than when I get a premium membership, eventually, I'd be willing to give you a name change. I'll PM you when I get one.

EDIT: I'm not too terribly good at Melee, but it's hard to believe that Falco is beating Fox.
