Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

  • Change Roy's dashing animation is altered.
  • Change Some of Roy's moves, such as his down aerial, have more fiery visuals.

Special moves

  • Buff As with Marth and Lucina's Dancing Blade, Double-Edge Dance transitions significantly faster into each hit.

Trivia

  • Roy's pose in his official artwork resembles his forward tilt. This pose is also similar to one Roy did in his splash art for Super Smash Bros. 4.
