The year is 20OurBoy. Everyone plays Everyone plays Roy at TAS levels of perfection. Because of this, the winner of a match depends solely on port priority. The RPS metagame has evolved to ridiculous levels due to it being the only remaining factor to decide matches.
***** Updates: Apparently, he's going to get back into Speedrunning again. He's going to be playing Goldeneye again, and maybe Castlevania 64. No news about any Legend Of Zelda games.
Akantor As great as DTilt is, it's not as reliable in competitive play as you may think: Cosmo used just enough of DTilt. The problem with it is that, just like with Marth's, most characters, including themselves, can advance with FAir/NAir and DTilt's hitboxes won't connect. It also really exposes your hurtbox with the hand, making it extremely punishable. You DO DTilt, but no more than you need to win.
bobcatbutt No one's really a Roy main. Roy is just a disrespect character. And there are already so many sword users in smash 4 that I doubt Roy will get to see the light of day.
After watching this, I'm really hoping Roy comes back for Smash 4. I want him to be like how he is in Project M, the middle ground between Ike's power and Marth's speed. I'd also want Roy's Neutral B to stay the same, an overhead slash instead of a stab as it will make it easier to sweet spot, and if possible, I'd like them to re-tool his Dancing Blade so he doesn't feel so similar to Marth and Lucina.
GrizzlyAdams94 They may be from the Mario series, but they all play fundamentally different form each other. Roy would be yet another sword user, a fifth fire emblem character, and the third Marth clone in the game. Roy, Toon Link and Pichu pretty much have no chance of making it into Smash 4 unless by a popular vote on the smash Ballot. However, in that case I feel Wolf or Snake have a better chance.
John Hurley Well, Toon Link already made it in, but I'll agree Pichu has no chance at all. I want them to re work Roy so he won't be another Marth clone though, or at the least he'll be like Wolf, a semi-clone. And as for Snake, considering what's been going on with Konami lately, I doubt we'll see Snake back for Smash 4.
Cosmo actually did better than Sethlon. Incredible Roy play. I do have to point out though that the Marth player wasn't anywhere near Cosmo's level, though. Not taking any credit away from Roy, no. But the opponent was weaker than Cosmo.
This is the best example of tier lists not having much importance. Cosmo and Fendrick have about the same level, and yet an unplayable character beat a top tier.
Njzfinest Pretty sure he was learning speedrunning tricks way before he was in competitive smash. He said something like 12+ years in the speedrunning community. Only heard of his competitive smash play with-in the past 3-4 years.
narutouzumakijoshua The world is bigger than you and the masses think. Sethlon IS one of the best Roy players in the world, though. But what is unquestionable is that, among the great Roy players, he's the one that gets the most coverage. And he plays Roy since forever, too. But there are some others out there that yet have to see the light of the day AKA camera action.
+Mask Truth The good thing about it is that it spikes and kills any character at 0%. Well, too bad it's way too freaking hard to land that in a serious match.
Ooh yeah lol, but is that ez enough to do? I have no idea. Also, I heard his d-air spike is tricky to land cuz the hitbox is on Roy's shoulder which kinda goes against common sense...
I was once at a local with fendrick lamar and they also thought the name was frendrick lamar. He really should just change his name frendrick lamar is way better.
roy's our boy
The one commentator kept bringing up the one thing he knew about fire emblem... "Sword of seals, sword of seals, sword of seals"
That was really good Roy play. Glad to see this character doing some work.
***** sethlon tho?
Cosmo is likely better at at least melee roy.
Cosmo has a good melee Roy, no doubt but it's definitely not even close to Sethlons or Lunchables melee Roy
so that's why this video was recommended to me, nice to see you again

Thank you for (unwillingly?) giving me a game tag suggestion. =]
Or would "20OP" be better? Hm. =|

hello to

Props to cosmo for playing roy, i miss him speedrunning but at least hes having fun with what hes doing now
***** Updates: Apparently, he's going to get back into Speedrunning again. He's going to be playing Goldeneye again, and maybe Castlevania 64. No news about any Legend Of Zelda games.
JumerProductions im actually happy i want to see him at agdq again
Same here, man. Maybe SGDQ 2015
+PixxelTrixx he started as a competitive melee player
+PixxelTrixx I thought he was familiar omg!!
7.8/10 not enough down tilts from roy

It's great to see other Roy mains. Hopefully he comes back to smash 4. ROYS OUR BOY!

Brett Bates Lol, ikr.
Brett Bates Welp, now I'm going to be a Roy main because he's so fucking good now. Thanks smash 4 :)
John Hurley "No one's really a Roy main"? "Roy is just a disrespect character"?
You're awfully ignorant.
John Hurley He is not top tier, if that is what you're implying (like everyone suddenly is).
God I fucking love DJ's commentary.
OMG, I'm a Roy main, and to see a new Roy on the block, I am PSYCHED.
After watching this, I'm really hoping Roy comes back for Smash 4. I want him to be like how he is in Project M, the middle ground between Ike's power and Marth's speed.

GrizzlyAdams94 I would like that, but they already have so many sword users.
John Hurley True, but look at how many Mario characters they have already.

GrizzlyAdams94 Lucina is is Marths Toon Link equivalent which is what I meant. Roy also isn't that popular outside of Smash either.
Can't wait for Roy to be revealed for Smash 4.
Joakim That music data thing better be real
Brett Bates
And I'm happy bout it too
DJ's commentary. is super good hes a smart dood
I actually like Fendrick Lamar. He's a nice guy.
zrox345 Fendy's the homie
this is a solid example that a tier list doesn't matter
Cosmo actually did better than Sethlon. Incredible Roy play.
I do have to point out though that the Marth player wasn't anywhere near Cosmo's level, though. Not taking any credit away from Roy, no. But the opponent was weaker than Cosmo.
Roy pls come back! I love you
Riksu _ your prayers have been answered son
This is the best example of tier lists not having much importance. Cosmo and Fendrick have about the same level, and yet an unplayable character beat a top tier.
It's weird seeing Cosmo playing smash lol. He's a beast tho.
Also all the Roy love in this comment section lol. M2K, Sethlon, and I think DJ Nintendo.
+2-T Fru-T he was a smash player wayyyy before a speedrunner
Njzfinest Pretty sure he was learning speedrunning tricks way before he was in competitive smash. He said something like 12+ years in the speedrunning community. Only heard of his competitive smash play with-in the past 3-4 years.
+2-T Fru-T it was smash first dude, i used to play in his region back in the day. there's vids of his marth from 06 btw
Njzfinest Still never heard of him much in the smash community. I know he was in the speedrunning community since at least 2006.
6:46 genius
My boy Roy, God this guys is the best Roy I ever seen!
Doc Mario look up sethlon
narutouzumakijoshua
I know who he is, I don't know who's better now that I think about it
Doc Mario I thought sethlon was known as the best Roy player in the world, I guess that's just an exaggeration then idk
narutouzumakijoshua
He is really good as Roy
narutouzumakijoshua The world is bigger than you and the masses think.
Sethlon IS one of the best Roy players in the world, though. But what is unquestionable is that, among the great Roy players, he's the one that gets the most coverage. And he plays Roy since forever, too. But there are some others out there that yet have to see the light of the day AKA camera action.
Yo! Cosmo is the best! It's like he's representing the speedrunning community ^w^
Fendy's humble beginnings i guess
Talk of PM on VGBootcamp?
Gimr didnt take it down????
I never see melee roy, this is good
A skilled Roy.
The bad thing about Roy's up-smash is it's tip only does 1%-2% damage :(
+Mask Truth The good thing about it is that it spikes and kills any character at 0%.
Well, too bad it's way too freaking hard to land that in a serious match.
Ooh yeah lol, but is that ez enough to do? I have no idea.
Also, I heard his d-air spike is tricky to land cuz the hitbox is on Roy's shoulder which kinda goes against common sense...
+Mask Truth It' a meteor. It's a bit different than a spike.
@@zacclark5945 sorry to be a necromancer, but actually it's a true spike!
@@louiscolangelo2082 His upsmash is yes. But not his sweet spot downair.
dtlit nair f smash is AMZING on yoshis with roy
It might be a play on Kendrick Lamar. I have no idea though.
I miss Cosmo/Narcissa actually playing video games... =(
Ryusuta Same man
Ryusuta I miss cosmo
top 10 worst di #3 3:48
3:50 bless dj
Isn't Cosmo a trans now?
+FindingTheEverlight Yeah
Holy.....shit
+Andrew Ricklefs xddd
"Roy has really good movement" Kappa
he does
I was once at a local with fendrick lamar and they also thought the name was frendrick lamar. He really should just change his name frendrick lamar is way better.
That Marth player is really..average
Maybe I'm too sensitive as a Roy main, but when I hear people call Roy's side-b "dancing blade" and not "double-edge sword", it kinda bothers me.
The Marth Player Stinks like Dookie
his names like the rapper kendrick lamarr
DJ the best!
Cosmo looks like Roy lol.
LOVE DJ
I don't think marth's dancing blade can turn only roy's can
KingGoldingIV Yes it can.
Bismo Funyuns Has it always been like that? I don't remember Marth being to able to turn.
KingGoldingIV Marth's can turn in all games.
KingGoldingIV You're correct. In PM, only Roy's can and only on the last variation.
RascalTC Yup. For emphasis, not in Melee (no one can), but yes in PM.
losing to Roy, SMH
youre really ignorant arent you
kirjian how?
Cosmo
cosmo the godddddd WinWaker
so many marth nair approaches smh
that marth was garbage
Who the heck is cosmo? Looks like that narcissa chick.
its not good roy play
its a good role play
Nerf Roy
