Roy is a [[weight|middleweight]] swordsman, although his main attributes deviate heavily from other fellow middleweights. He boasts very fast [[dash]]ing, [[air speed|air]], and [[falling speed]]s, but has an only slightly above-average [[walk]]ing speed, as well as fairly low [[air acceleration]] and [[jump]]s. Roy has an attribute unique to him that other swordfighters do not have: his inverse tipper. Contrary to {{SSBU|Marth}} specifically, his Binding Blade does the most damage if attacking near the sword's hilt, although it does weak damage and knockback when otherwise tippered. While this gives Roy effectively bigger sweetspots than those who rely on a tipper to deal maximum damage, it weakens his spacing abilities despite being a swordfighter. | Roy is a [[weight|middleweight]] swordsman, although his main attributes deviate heavily from other fellow middleweights.

Roy's greatest strength is his KO potential, which is very high when compared to other middleweights, and can even be comparable to the power of some of the harder-hitting heavyweights on the roster, such as {{SSBU|Bowser}} and {{SSBU|Incineroar}}. In conjunction with his overall fast frame data for a swordfighter, he can inflict large amounts of damage in a short amount of time. [[Neutral attack]] can catch aggressive approaches due to its speed and deceptively large hitbox, and can efficiently set up into his more powerful normal attacks. His [[forward tilt]], [[up tilt]], and [[forward smash]] are all very fast startup-wise, with each being among the strongest attacks of their kind; notably, forward smash can KO under 50% with rage near the edge, even if uncharged. His [[up smash]] is an effective anti-air attack due to its quick startup, along with his sword arm gaining intangibility throughout its rather long duration. | Roy's greatest strength is his KO potential, which is very high when compared to other middleweights, and can even be comparable to the power of some of the harder-hitting heavyweights on the roster, such as {{SSBU|Bowser}} and {{SSBU|Incineroar}}.

Roy's KO potential also extends to his great air game, with quick, powerful and damaging aerials; his [[neutral aerial]] is a useful combo starter, especially when using the first hit by itself on landing, which allows him to add extra damage to his combos and even open up KO setups at high percentages. His [[forward aerial]] autocancels in a short hop and is overall very quick, allowing him to even perform a [[wall of pain]]. At high percentages, it also boasts KO potential. [[Back aerial]] has the rare and deceptive quality of turning Roy around, as well as being rather quick despite its power, KOing at around 130% from center-stage. [[Up aerial]] is Roy's fastest aerial startup-wise, and is a reliable juggling move due to its large hitbox and average knockback, and can even KO by itself at high percentages. Lastly, [[down aerial]] is a strong [[meteor smash]] when sweetspotted and boasts decent KO potential when sweetspotted on-stage. | Roy's KO potential also extends to his great air game, with quick, powerful and damaging aerials; his [[neutral aerial]] is a useful combo starter, especially when using the first hit by itself on landing, which allows him to add extra damage to his combos and even open up KO setups at high percentages.
