I remember going to my first super major where I got to play friendlies with Axe. We were playing mostly Falco dittos, when someone came up to Axe and asked if it was true that a skilled Roy could beat any Fox. Axe turns to me and says "hey man, can you go fox next game?" I said yes and he went Roy. I got my shit pushed in.

It's cause the Melee tier list is accurate, but the skill levels and depth of knowledge is so deep in Melee that a Roy could devastate 99% of the community because it's in a master (like Zain)'s hands. I think the tier list is made with comparable skill levels in mind, which generally isn't the case when the level of Melee being played demands stronger tiered characters for more consistent success.

You could check AsumSaus's analysis video on Roy. There's a lot of spaghetti programming regarding the character alone possibly owing to the fact that they tried to copy Marth's character with a lot of changed parameters. It didn't look like a copy and paste job considering there were misplaced and missing flags, badly synchronized hitbox to animation sequences, values having missing or added digits, or said values causing glitches to how the game reads Roy's actions.

The statement was actually true once, when a Roy named neo reached top 10 pgr. A lot of people don’t know about neo since he isn’t mentioned in the doc, but he’s actually the best Roy of all time. He has some notable tournament results such as #2 at MLG Chicago 2005, losing to Ken who was unstoppable at the time, 4th at MLG Washington D.C 2005 losing to ken again, 5th at MLG New York and he even qualified for the MLG National Championships where he placed 8th. Peaked at rank #6 with fucking Roy, in a lan environment I don’t think even zain can do that

One of the things in Zain's favor was how much respect his opponents showed him. Roy is AWFUL against pressure but very few times did his opponents actually try to consistently pressure him. Put Zain's Roy against Mango's Falco and it would be a bloodbath - Mango's Falco has insane pressure and Roy wouldn't be able to handle it.

I think a better discussion about Roy's strengths and weaknesses really is necessary to understand what Zain did. There's a reason the mantra is "a skilled Roy" and not "a skilled Kirby". Roy is possibly the weakest character that still has enough tools to pull off scalps like this. That said, bracket luck was absolutely needed. Zain never encountered a Peach or Samus, and those would've probably been the end of his run.

Also I think Armada’s point is extremely valid. MU inexperience allows for ‘gimmick’ kills from missed or unintuitive DI and conflating Roy with ‘bad Marth’. Roy doesn’t suffer from Marthritis and benefits immensely from poor DI. Zain even admits that he would get 4stocked by Mang0 or Armada’s Fox because of this. Doesn’t take away from the fact that Zain is a genius and a fucking legend, a master of neutral and can pull out the reads.
@inheritedwheel2900
@inheritedwheel2900 4 жыл бұрын
That's for sure. Armada's an expert, and I totally trust him. When he said that with even 20 minutes of matchup research a high level player would significantly improve their game plan and likely win a rematch I believed him. After all, those side-B's at the ledge!! That being said I think it's very telling that even in the top 50 echelon of players, they still don't have the innate experience or knowledge to beat out a skilled low tier. In my opinion, this has huge implications for the level of skill that 99.9% of melee players are at, where people certainly wouldn't be researching matchups to that extent. Too often people talk as if every theoretical player is at the highest level of skill and preparation, to the extent where they'd just demolish another player in a bad MU, which obviously can't be true. Melee just has so much weird tech to remember. Even when melee is as optimized as it is today, outside of the gods (and maybe the peripheral top players) who are true masters, there's still space for low tiers to make their mark. That makes me happy, even if low tiers are still a severe handicap.

Most low tiers definitely benefit from opponents lacking matchup knowledge, there's no doubt at all about that. Better players will learn and adapt very quickly though and most of that advantage should disappear within games to sets. But it's still not the same as having played against the character daily for years. You can get 80% of the way there but you can't learn a matchup as well as you know the fox matchup unless you dedicate some serious time to it. It remains to be seen if Zain or anyone else can continue doing well with Roy or other low tiers (YL, DK, etc come to mind) once people know the matchup better and gimmicks, etc. are out of play. Just because the possibility that Zain won solely due to matchup inexperience and gimmicks is there doesn't mean it is definitely . People will adapt back and forth: Zain needs time to adjust his playstyle once people do adapt to him as well. There is always potential in unexplored part of the game and a lot of the low tiers definitely have more to them than we currently know.

Roy has some interesting things in his kit he can use against spacies. His parry (although still a shorter window than Marths) has something called an ICG (invisible ceiling glitch) which I've managed to abuse against falco's on slippi a lot. Basically, for some reason if you shield before using parry, they will fly up, and into a down arch like they hit an invisible ceiling and its almost always a kill. To be honest, I think if you want to be taught a fast playstyle from a losing position to help your neutral game with other characters, Roy is essential practice for this imo. I can usually find a way around most of the high tiers with Roy. Of course there's 4 stock losses against any one of them as there should be, but really the hardest time I have on Roy is either against Marth or a ranged character like Ylink, Peach, Pikachu or Samus. Fox' & Falco's are usually too thrown off or intimidated by Roy tho and tend to fumble their games big time which is honestly what I think happened here.

The great thing about mid-to-low tiers is that because they need to put in more work, they have longer, more stylish combos than the high tiers who can kill really fast. It's always more entertaining to watch a Samus, Luigi, Mario, Pikachu or Yoshi combo than a Fox or Falco combo, even if the Fox and Falco ones are way more effective.

Zain just KNEW Ginger would try to do something out of shield, and that hilt fsmash SMACKED him on the FRAME he let go of shield, or at least within a couple frames. SICK!!!!

i usually try to restrain myself from making self-important posts .... but been a roy main since i was a little kid, always found him cool no matter what any1 said - hell even named my first email & gamertag after him. i used to go to my cousin's house every holiday season to play melee to re-unlock roy on classic mode (i honestly couldnt tell you what they did with their save cards). to see roy prosper in ssbu and even ssbm - even if this is just great piloting & roy's still roy ...... HE'S MY BOY!

No one denies that low-tier character *can win if the player is skilled enough. The only question is how much better Zain would do in tourneys if he put as much efforts in a top-tier character.

@turndownforwalt
@turndownforwalt 4 жыл бұрын
I wouldn’t say it’s an inherently better matchup since Roy has a difficult time doing just about everything else versus Puff. The reverse up-B is a great tool but it can be pretty situational and can be punished heavily versus a Puff if it whiffs!
