Roy's UAir animation

[A New England Winter]

Not sure this is the right place for this, but...

Here's a lazily slapped together video showing how imprecise Roy's UAir animation is. This is actually the same in Melee, but I feel that it should nonetheless be improved to be better representative of the hitbox (or extend the hitbox that far down, either option works). I have whiffed this move countless times on people due to the lack of a proper visual queue.

Bonus SD at the end because I am a good player with good techskill.

This is pretty cool

You might want to post this over in the Bug Reporting section for PM. I hope this gets fixed.

I don't think this is actually a bug. Several attacks exhibit this effect - fair and dair immediately come to mind. Marth's are the same way.

 

[Shadic]

Yeah, just because a sword trail is there doesn't mean a hitbox is. The trails typically start and and 1-2 frames before the hitbox comes out for most attacks.

Could we just change the color of the trail or something to indicate when there isn't a hitbox on it? Because it can be very deceiving, especially when you're fast falling it. I'm sure we could keep it as is, but I feel it would be a nice QoL change.
