| '''Roy''' is a 15-year old swordsman, and a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]''. He is a character from the ''Fire Emblem'' series, a series known primarily in Japan. [[Marth]], another ''Fire Emblem'' character, is also in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee''.
| |
| | |
| == Super Smash Bros. Melee ==
| |
| Roy is an unlockable character in ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', unlocked by beating Classic or Adventure Mode as Marth and then beating Roy. Roy has a moveset similar to Marth's. However, Roy's attacks are strongest at the center of his blade, unlike Marth's. In general, Marth's tipped attacks are stronger than Roy's center-hits, but the center of Roy's sword is larger. Additionally, Roy has the worst aerial game among all the fighters in ''Melee''.
| |
| | |
| Though Marth remains a playable character in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', Roy does not. This is because Roy's role in Melee was merely advertisement for his upcoming game. However, Roy does appear as a collectible [[sticker]]. Hacked data for Roy was found, confirming that he was supposed to be given another role than a sticker.

| ===Special Moves===
| |
| ====Flare Blade====
| |
| [[Image:Roy's_B_move.jpg|thumb|Flare blade.]]
| |
| | |
| It is Roy's most powerful attack involving his sword. The attack is executed by pressing the B Button by itself. Once done, Roy will hold his sword behind his neck, and start charging up the attack. Charging isn't necessary, but it does make the attack stronger. Once it hits the foe, it will damage and burn them. If charged enough, it can even instantly KO an opponent. Flare Blade is a stronger version of [[Marth]]'s [[Shield Breaker]]. But, maybe, a little too strong. If charged to the max (there is a limit to how much the attack can be charged), Roy will instantly let loose the attack, but the power of the attack will inflict a lot of damage on Roy, something that Shield Breaker doesn't do. [[Kirby]] is also able to use Flare Blade if he [[Swallow]]s
| |
| Roy. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', [[Ike]] will use [[Eruption|a move]] very simlar to Flare Blade.
| |
| | |
| ====Double-Edge Dance====
| |
| [[Image:Roy's_Double_Edge_Dance_Move.jpg|left|thumbnail|Double-Edge Dance.]]
| |
| This is Roy's Side + B move, and is a very unique move. It can be combined with another of Roy's attacks, to make a combo attack. Roy will thrust his sword forward, to act as a long-range move. But, another one of Roy's attacks can be used the instant he finishes up. Roy will be able to do this up to four times in one combo, devastating the opponent in the process. However, the timing must be spot on, as rushing the attacks will result in just a weak sword slash. It is a more powerful version of [[Marth|Marth's]] [[Dancing Blade]] attack, except that it expels fire.
| |
| | |
| Interestingly, Roy will change colors once he uses this attack. The exact same happens to Marth when he uses Dancing Blade.
| |
| | |
| ====Blazer====
| |
| [[Image:Roy's_Blazer_attack.jpg|thumbnail|Blazer.]]
| |
| This move is executed by tilting the Control Stick up, and then pressing the B Button. Once done, Roy will jump up high, with his sword facing upwards, and burn anyone that comes in contact with him. Although not incredibly powerful, the attack can help Roy get back up to the stage after he falls off, making it a recovery attack. It is a stronger version of [[Marth]]'s attack, [[Dolphin Slash]], except that it is imbued with fire.
| |
| | |
| ====Counter====
| |
| [[Image:Roy's Counter Move.jpg|left|thumbnail|Roy's counter.]]
| |
| '''Counter''' is a special attack that can be used by both [[Marth]] and Roy in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'', as well as a special move in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' used by Marth and [[Ike]]. The attack is performed by tilting the Control Stick downwards, and then pressing the B Button. Marth or Roy or Ike will crouch down, and hold their sword at the side of their head. Once an opponent comes to attack, they will miss, and Marth or Roy or Ike will automatically attack the foe. The attack must be used quickly, as it won't work if it is kept out for too long. This is the main reason the attack is hard to master, let alone use. However, the attack is very useful once done right.
| |
| | |
| Roy's counter is very different from Marth's, as it is a tad slower, but more powerful. It, like the [[#Blazer|Blazer]], is imbued with fire.

| |''The son of the lord of Pharae Principality, Roy was studying in Ostia when the Kingdom of Bern invaded League of Lycia. His father fell ill at this time, so Roy assumed leadership of Pharae's armies. After his fateful meeting with the Princess Guinevere, his destiny became inextricably linked with the fate of the entire continent.''

| |
| |''While Roy's moves are well balanced, he's a little on the slow side, and doesn't excel at midair combat. His blade, the Sword of Seals, gives him excellent reach, and makes his Double-Edge Dance slightly different then Marth's Dancing Blade. When it's fully charged, Roy's destructive Flare Blade delivers an instant KO.''

| |
| |''Roy's blade is different than Marth's: he does the most damage hitting with the center of his sword. So, a fearless advance into the arms of his foe is Roy's best bet. Blazer is a bit slower than Marth's Dolphin Slash, but it's still a mighty attack that sets anyone it strikes aflame. Roy's attack after using Counter differs slightly from Marth's.''

| == Trivia ==
| |
| *''Super Smash Bros. Melee'' was Roy's first appearance in any [[Nintendo]] game. He would later star in the Japan-only game ''Fire Emblem: Fūin no Tsurugi'' (A.K.A.: ''Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade''). So, his appearance in Melee was done to advertise his later appearance in the said game. Additionally, Roy and [[Marth]] only speak Japanese in all versions of the game, and Roy was voiced by ''Jun Fukuyama''. Roy and Marth were originally going to appear only in the Japanese version of ''Super Smash Bros. Melee'', but Nintendo of America stated to keep them in the game.
