Marth's offstage game is a lot more beastly than Roy's, his recovery is more favorable here, and he can more safely space his aerials on shield, as well as having Shield Breaker in his kit and better spacing tools overall.

Roy's ground game is so much better, and he has fewer issues racking up damage and taking stocks. That combined with his falling speed and weight being much better in a game where vertical attacks rule, and where differences in whether stocks stay or not between different fall speeds and weights seems more drastic than Roy's previous iterations ultimately makes Roy better here in my eyes.

I believe Roy is a fair amount better after my 8 months of experience with Marth in this game (and watching and studying videos of the Invitational and Best Buy demos plus VGBootCamp's channel one year ago) combined with several years of Roy in other games.

That being said, don't sleep on Marth. Earlier I faced one on Smashladder that gave me a fair (get it) bit of trouble even if I won 2-0. Kinda glad that it didn't go to game 3 because he was trying way too hard with his movement which got him punished quite a bit and I got annoyed playing it.

Well said friend. That's precisely how I've felt as of late. I just couldn't quite find the words I supposexD

Is it sad/embarrassing for others that I defeated 19 people online using only Roy'd neutral b fully charged?

That's...well, kind of expected.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

That's...well, kind of expected.

The worst/best part of it is that they knew what I was doing, and tried to attacked me from the front or miss time counters.

 

[Tacticulbacon]

All this talk about who's better than who when it's obvious Lucina is top tier hands down.

Lucina: OP child unit in Awakening, challenges fates, travels back in time to save her father's sorry a**, best waifu

Roy: Literally the worst lord in Fire Emblem

Marth: A feminine clone of Lucina

Roy: 0
Marth: 0
Lucina: 1

 

[Illya-tan]

ZeRo stated he believes Roy is a top tier character but we will see in the future i guess

 

[Ura]

Was I one of those people? lol.

I recall fighting an FG Roy that kept on using the neutral B for the most part though he only beat me by a thread.

19 people couldn't handle the PH1R3.

 

[WaluigiWeegeeSteel]

I feel like the Roy we got in Smash 4 was blessed with strength considering he only had a 40% growth in that stat.

Nah, unless you were 2 stocked 11 times in a row.

PH1R3 op, pls buff

 

[Ura]

That's a relief lol.

Also, Roy is ranked No. 2 on the EventHubs tier list. This is truly glorious.

EDIT: Wait NVM, he's 9th now. Now this song is playing in my head.

I just thought it was a pretty cool sight to see lol. Especially in the Melee tier list where he's always really low in the list. I agree about EH being rather untrustworthy for the most part though.

I've been going through a lot of FE6 tracks lately. I'm thinking of having another run of the game since I didn't get the proper ending. I want to finish my run in Sacred Stones before I do that though.

I love FE music, Yuka Tsujiyoko is my favorite composer when it comes to video games. Unfortunately the only notable things she has worked on are paper mario 1 & 2 and the fire emblem series.
I didn't like awakening much, but I would be an idiot to bash its sound track
+1 for playing my favorite FE

I really don't find myself using Usmash too much. It's really ugly when you get punished for it

I never trust Eventhubs. They always have Pittoo/Dark Pit higher than Pit, and once all Fire Emblem characters lower than Charizard.

I've revised my mains, cuz I'm feeling differently about my chracaters, and I've got like 10 mains But Roy is still on top for now

don't worry still not as many mains as @ Macchiato has had in the past two months

 

[KenMeister]

and I've got like 10 mains

Whoa, slow down there partner.

 

[N3ON]

O_O

 

[HFlash]

O_O

Sorry... had to be done.

 

[jaytalks]

I really love how Roy has kept his Melee style instead of being a Marth clone. I'll be working him into my rotation of mains.

 

[LordTakeo]

I read those tier list discussions...
Guys, who cares? In tournament level, you can win with whatever you want, if you play good enough.

Just play what you like, and play it with passion. Every character has a bad MU, which makes things harder, but not impossible.
Tierlists are just for people who want to have it easy. Play what YOU want, not what everyone else wants.

Actually in the past few months my mains were and that was it actually

SoS too stronk with that 18 might.

That and everyone in Smash is secretly a dragon of some sort.

>>>>>Eventscrubs

Don't trust them for lists, they handle them pretty horribly for the most part and aren't accurate for either character placements or matchups.

I think they make their tiers difficult to navigate because they're aware of just how bad they are, but they want to troll the **** out of you, me, and themselves.

It's been my favorite Roy move since Melee and it kills so well here. I use it to cover tech options, rolls, spotdodges, oncoming aerials, grounded approaches, literally everything now.

I went a bit ranty, though I don't mean anything mean/bad by it. When my gears start rolling on any subject, I can really type.

[LozNerd]

Lol, a little while ago while playing FG I used the combo DThrow/USpecial 3 time in a row. He was Ganon and kept trying to challenge on the way down with his DAir. I just shielded and grabbed again

 

[MagiusNecros]

The funny thing is Ganon is basically "If I used a sword I could do 10 times better" because when Ganon does it with his fists he isn't even trying.

 

[dy831532sssfjhhggb2224523]

After more matches this morning I can confirm that Roy's fthrow is his favorite murder weapon.

 

[MagiusNecros]

So is Dthrow > Jab very repeatable up to like 40% or can an opponent escape out of it?

I like the pseudo chain grab effect it gives.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

All this talk about who's better than who when it's obvious Lucina is top tier hands down.

Lucina: OP child unit in Awakening, challenges fates, travels back in time to save her father's sorry a**, best waifu

Roy: Literally the worst lord in Fire Emblem

Marth: A feminine clone of Lucina

Roy: 0
Marth: 0
Lucina: 1

Palutena's a better waifu than Lucina, and Roy's better than her to(not as a waifu).

lol, reminds me of this:

 

[Teeb147]

Actually in the past few months my mains were and that was it actually

Mine are


and as a secondary. lol. oh and mii brawler.

I'm starting to like Shulk too tho.
I think I'll add them to my sig

Might need to reassess your definition of "Main"

My mains are

Secondaries:

Wish I could actually get good with:

 

[Teeb147]

Well they're the main ones I use, and who I use more depends on the situation and my mood, so.. to me they're all my mains
How do you determine your main?

Realistically if every character in the game was going off actual strength then RD Ike would win 100% like he never gets hit is a tank, crushes everything he hits in one blow and shoots laser beams out of his sword. And he's faster than light. I wanna see that in Smash smh Sakurai

How do you determine your main?

The one you use the most and are most skilled with. My main is Bowser and I have like 20 secondaries.
