Roy is a semi clone

the always inferior clone

From what I saw, it looks like Roy has a new fsmash, slightly different up smash (explosion at tip), and a buffed neutral b. There are probably a few other small changes too, but I wouldn't call him "decloned."
 
Nintendo might just say fuck ninjas and deploy the militia for this one, holy shit. How did something like this get blown out so badly/quickly? I can only hope the Smash Direct ends with a Mewtwo like out of nowhere tease.

IIRC the mewtwo download was really small so it seems like they add the characters through patches which let data miners go to town.

Poor Sakurai, I know he hates when this stuff happens.

Most of his attacks have him holding the sword backwards, having very different range and stuff. First thing I noticed was the ftilt. Didn't see much causes he kept taunting and the stream kept freezing

New jab, new dash attack, Flare Blade is a different animation from Marth's Shield Breaker (and Melee Shield Breaker), Melee Marth down throw, among others.

He's more like Wolf to Fox now.

No. No no no no no. Wolf has 0 shared A moves with Fox, and the specials are only conceptually the same, but as different as these concepts can be.

Roy still shares various animations and moves with Marth, so he is closer to Dr. Mario to Mario or, maybe, Falco to Fox (though those 2 also still are plenty more different than Roy seems to be).

Yeah, reading his comments on how he considered legal action against people who leaked stuff about Smash 64, I have to wonder what he's thinking about the entire Smash 4 era. First the 3DS/ESRB leak, then the original DLC data mining, and now this.
 
So apparently they had Kirby music playing on the Street Fighter stage? lol

Seeing as how Roy was using Mario's icon, I can only wonder at what glitches this patch brought.
