      Roy/Falcon is actually more even than people think. Roy has some nice spacing/combo tools, and he's pretty fast himself. Unlike Marth, he's a fast-faller, so he doesn't really get comboed until certain percents. If he had some better properties to his aerials to set up forward smashes, he might actually beat Falcon.

  • @aaronchaska
    @aaronchaska Год назад +5

    DTM needs to incorporate down smash into his toolkit, especially as an edgeguard. The sweetspot can kill off the top sooner than fsmash kills on the sides on some stages, and the sourspot swats away but still has some power, almost like a weak sheik fair. Would have got him some stocks much sooner. Also would like to see the third swing of double edge dance on shield angled down, multihit with a good chance of shield poking and some decent shield damage otherwise. At least safer than just throwing the first two swings.

      That is helpful to know, but also Roy has to get that opening against the fastest character in the game, that really should murder roy off any strong enough knockdown/aerial.

      Marth outclasses Roy in almost everything, especially range

  • @squirrelwithwi-fi7849
    @squirrelwithwi-fi7849 10 месяцев назад

    Playing against Roy as a fastfaller is a bit like fighting quicksand. Any spacie that has fought a decent Roy that knows how to mix d-tilt, jab, grab, and dashback is going to know what I'm talking about. Once you're in Roy's threat range he's definitely got options.
    As long as you're not on ground level, you have an advantage against Roy. Of course he still has options. On ground level, he is almost as threatening as Marth, don't be fooled. So platform camping him is optimal, but this slows the pace of the game down tremendously, and you have to be familiar with the MU to know what mix-ups to go for when descending from a platform.
    Roy is not a *bad* character. He has some severe flaws but he is more than capable of taking stocks, and at the end of the day, that's all that matters. In fact, most mid-tiers have better MUs against spacies than people realize. Spacies (and falcon) have excellent movement that allow them to combo and pseudo-combo the entire cast, but the price they pay for this is that pretty much any character can 0-death them. Which is why a decent kirby can obliterate a fox that doesn't know the MU (it happened to me, to my shame). Sheik obliterates mid tiers precisely because she doesn't fall as fast as fox/ falco/ falcon, making the combo flowcharts for mids versus her much more linear and weak (also she generally has superior hitboxes in all cases, and the mids don't have the speedy movement to weave in and out of her threat zones like fast fallers).
    Zain is incredibly good but my Roy main friend has told me that Roy is, in fact, a solid mid-tier, and is not a low tier. Over time I've come to believe him. His grab leads into genuine KO setups against fastfallers, and his movement is absolutely S-tier, allowing him to play a defensive grab game that is straight out of Marth's playbook. So, TLDR, Zain would probably not have this success with a character like Bowser. Bowser is also much worse than Kirby, in spite of what people think. Kirby can wall people out, crouch under moves, and generally be annoying. Bowser is just a walking target, waiting to get 0-death'd.

    • @squirrelwithwi-fi7849
      @squirrelwithwi-fi7849 10 месяцев назад
