Please release a Roy DE with a much more detailed sprite there are some on Google that look amazing you could rig bro

definitely a satisfying character to play, though I dont get the whole UI stuff. It would be so much better with none of the ui stuff at the bottom and remove the red. Keep it consistent with the game naturally, or people will refuse to use this character. People want character that blend well into the game, the UI feels like a mod and its abit much. Also side special is a little weird. The rest is great.

This is a very polarizing character. On one hand, moves like the up special look spectacular and are very satisfying to use, but on the other hand, many of the animations jitter around like a sandbert skin, and the jab is a simple 1 frame animation. his side special looks so goofy with how he flies across the screen so far with no animation. Still, this is a satisfying character to play, and with some sprite work could really improve this character.

back, I got better at the game and so i came back to workshop to play roy, and i realized that jab is effected by the normal added end lag from correctly doing a parry. if you were to parry Clariens jab or c grab you are not effected, i think it should be buffed so that it works like clairens jab in that regaurd, and making so he has options to deal with parry

New update is out, thought it was just a small change overall i still hope you enjoy.

FSpecial nerfed
Skins added
Some Sprites fixed

My new Character; "Selene" is out !!!

So now i can focus on the long promised update for Roy,

Thanks for all the feedback so far, I will try my best to take your comments into consideration.
Coming soon.

I love this character, he is easily my most used character by far! He is a great change compared to the designs in smash, he has many kill confirms (nair > ftilt, dtilt > ustrong) which allows many ways to get a k.o. I like how almost all of his aerials aren't sword swings, they are strikes instead, quick short attacks to combo opponents without losing many options. While the fire on the attacks seems like a little flair, it makes Roy more balanced, if he didn't have this way of dealing damage, his combos would make him to o.p, and make it hard for the opponent. But, idk, i guess I'm going to deep into this, also... PLEASE DONT CHANGE THE F-AIR, IT IS MY FAVORITE TOOL FOR COMBOS, AND I WOULD HATE FOR IT TO CHANGE... please.

This is so well done

Roy just reached 10,000 subscribers
Thx a lot guys,
I will try my best to improve and keep up with your feedback

ah ok i understand. You did great

@dumbsparce, @darakin22

This roy is based on his original FireEmblem ingame appeance
It wouldn't fit if i were to include these features like Upthrow or jab (maby jab would be a smaller issue)

I also tryed to make Double edge dance, however it felt kinda wrong no matter what i did.
Probably for the same reasons.

These features would only make Roy a weird mix of someting that is Smash-Roy but also Not Smash-Roy at the same time.

Maby someone else makes a SSB-Roy someday (hopefully)

I might look into Fair thought.

This is a pretty cool character, he feels authentic. Maybe use Melee upthrow for uptilt, where it can have long hitstun and trade antiairing for a cool grounded option. Also, maybe using smash ultimate jab, since thats a cool move too.

Personally i prefer double edge cause side b makes sidewards recovery free 99, plus you can do nutty things with it. Also If you can lower the hitbox of nair so running up short hop nair works on more people. Other than that I have to give you praise cause I love Roy and he is very fun. F smash feels powerful, he has sick fair combos and is just generally fun. I hope you do more FE characters to see what you do with them

Thank you for this, I was waiting for someone to make roy and it was finally done

i was a roy main in SSBU, but i kinda like this better tbh

I returned
Buffing and fixing some of his problems with the new update

I hope for the better

He supports Kirbys copy-ability

I immediately loved this upon hearing the hit effects

I am curently playing around with maby replacing N-Special, for it is verry hard to balance while keeping it fun at the same time

However the problem with Roys ranged attack (if you refere to his sealed sword 2-range attack) is that it has effectivly the same animation as Counter and to an extend FStrong

Wich are both two pretty strong looking attacks with long animations moves

Or in short
(I think it might look a bit repetetive

I considere maby like a DoubleEdgeDance, like Smash SideB or a chargeattck

However
I am always open for sugsestions

I like the fact that the moveset stayed faithful to his Sword of Seals appearance. Do you plan on adding an attack similar to the flaming sword beam ranged attack?

good character but i think it would be better to have his smash bros moveset even though he already has his up b and down b but the side b and neutral b need work mainly the side b

Also costume Eliwood skin seems..

Given how simular jet different Roy and his father look,
Eliwood would end up a lot of work for an alt that has little change or just another shade of blue chlothing with red hair..

So it is not really a thing i consider right now, sorry

That was one of my huge concerns with the Buff, but 10 feels so little satisfying in comparison
I already thought about an once per stock-limit or something alike

The buffed nspecial is pretty broken. You can just hit your opponent with a strong attack, rush to the opposite side of the stage, and get a free 20% heal. You should include some kind of cooldown to it. Maybe prevent you from using the nspecial consecutively in a 30-second timeframe? Or maybe make it so that it heals less and less with each use until you lose a stock? At the moment, it's pretty much impossible to lose a stock with this character unless you're facing an intentionally OP character.

You should try to add a lord eliwood skin to this

I don't think the Player 4 glitch is unique to Roy. It happens if you have Player 4 select any workshop character, I believe.

Okay, thank you for the input.

The healing definitely works

No, i didn't wanted to add just another swordslash so i made something more unique
At least "I" can't recall any charakters that activly heals themselfe.

You need to let the whole animation finsh but it schould work
Maby you didn't notice, there is no flashy healeffect (yet, maby i'll add somethimg in future) so it's easy to miss.

also I thought you gave him his "smash" Nspecial, and I was just messing up the input.

(you know,one of those"press it once to charge, then press it again to fire", kinda like megaman's mega buster move.)

Really? Then either I didn't noticed that it healed me. or it doesn't work.

@JCGemX
It Heals 10%
This is something smash doesn't mention but Roys sword can be used to restore 30 HP
(Thought 30% heal might be overkill... over-not-kill)

and how do you use it?

Question,what is his Nspecial suppose to do?

Thaks for the positive feedback

thank you so much

Damn, a good roy before a good marth, didn't expect that. nice work.
