Really good stuff. I left some additional insight on the videos and I'd love to discuss Roy and possibly play at some point.
Thanks for the extra insight :D I'd like to play at some point but i'm pretty busy at the moment. but we'll play sometime!

Video ideas:

-Covering landing options (dtilt, fsmash, grab if they try to land and shield, DED, nair are all really good at this and should be covered for a video on beating the landing options of opponents)

-Approach (a lot of people think he only has things like nair or empty hop grab to approach, I think he's much better at approach than that and doesn't necessarily always have to approach)

-Reaction tech chasing (primarily off fthrow and dtilt)

-Different ledge trump options (part of it being your dair video, shielding at ledge and waiting to see what they do, then dropping shield for a tilt or for OoS aerials, ledge trump bair, offstage counter if they go low with certain characters, turning towards the ledge to dtilt/dsmash/runoff bair, going offstage and using Blazer to clip them at the edge once they lose invincibility, etc.)

-Regular Blazer vs. Blazer angled horizontally kill % differences, and when aerial Blazer starts to kill and becomes a viable kill option

-Extended dash dancing/dance trot uses with Roy, how to use it correctly to bait or watch an opponent's actions and gameplan

-Recovery options and mixups with Roy, ways to save recovery tools while remaining tricky

-Optimal DI with Roy as a fastfaller in a lot of situations

-Matchup guides (Sheik, Ness, Pikachu, Dedede come to mind most, but other competitive threats like Mario, Fox, and Rosalina would also probably be good priority)

-Stage guide (best stages with Roy, okay stages with Roy, bad stages, stages that become good or bad with specific matchups)

Great ideas! Approaching is part of the neutral video i'm making right now. Covering landing options is one i'd like to do after the edgeguard/ledge trump options :D matchup guides is something i'd like to do too. i'll probably get to that after finishing most general videos. Rosalina and yoshi are matchup i can say alot about and ZSS a pretty good amount of info, so that's pretty neat!

New video! :
This is part one of my Roy neutral guide. The next part(s) will have footage of me playing aggresive neutral and defensive.

Welp i've been semi-inactive on big video project because of a little break and working on improvement instead, but here is a little something:

That's similar to how you can air-**** with Captain Falcon.

Important tech, right here.
