I wrote this so people like Umbreon could tear at apart. Im basing this whole thing off of what Knowledge I think I have. So please wreck it so I can correct my errors.
Why Roy should potential be lower on the tier list.
Characters below him on the tier list such as Mewtwo and Yoshi I find have better and more consistent option in general MU's. Roy has an almost non-existent offstage game. You might get a dropoff fair on a Fox/Falco/Falcon in a poor recovery situation, but for the most part nothing.
Mewtwo has his bair and floatiness so he has a fantastic off-stage game. Its pretty straight forward..
Mewtwo has dair which can be used to combo onstage and ko off stage as a spike.
Yoshi can sort "hangup" or "suspend" in the air for nairs, also has fair and bair to go along with a solid second jump.
Zelda has fair/bair. A move that kos rather early and can also be used in succession. Zelda does have a spike in Dair which even though its not that fantastic, is a Spike none-the-less. Zelda's koing ability is a lot better in general.
Both Mewtwo and Roy have u-throws that can get a much needed ko that you can seem to get, however Mewtwo does have b-throw.
Roy's combo game is very character specific, and only comprizes of a few moves, his aerials are not very effective with the exclusion of fair and even uair...and I suppose dair which can be used to pop a character up. So I suppose its actually alright, nair becomes of less use because of how fast he falls.. but at the same time that can come in handy.
Yoshi's also has sort of a character specific Combo game BUT his has more options, His tilts are fantastic and so are his aerials. So once a Yoshi gets going, gtfo.
Zelda's combo game is rather poor... but her metagame is more geared towards proper spacing anyways.
Now lets look at some Positives of Roy
His reverse up-b is good for inclose combat when you need that ko
Tech chase grabs are great, both f-throw and b-throw work really well.
Against spacies and other fast fallers you can chaingrab u-throw for a little bit THEN tech chase(easier way to build those first few percent)
Relatively easy combos to perform at low percents, all starting with a d-tilt LOL.Mind you this also gets ***** by CC.
SH fair is great for keeping pressure on a character and pushing them back.
I dunno I was on a roll writing lots, then got distracted by issues here at work and lost my train of thought
Let me know what you think.
OH right, the verdict.
Tier should be switch to be more like this:
Zelda Tied
Roy Tied
Mewtwo
Yoshi
