In terms of general capabilities compared to Lucina directly, Chrom possesses faster overall speed and stronger grounded attacks, in exchange for lower jump height, faster falling speed, and weaker aerials. Additionally, he arguably benefits more from his balanced blade than Lucina does, since Roy's weaknesses are his reliance on getting extremely close and extremely ineffective sourspots as a result, Chrom suffers less from Roy's main flaws, allowing him to both space and fight up close very effectively. However, as Roy's sweetspots and sourspots are extremely polarized in power, Chrom's damage and knockback averages end up being higher-than-average, giving him an overall powerful offense. As a result, they have more consistent combos, edgeguarding and KO potential than their base characters, and their attacks are significantly safer on shield and on hit than Marth and Roy's sourspots, at the cost of losing out on stronger sweetspots that can end stocks early. Since Chrom's lack of a sweetspot makes his unique attribute similar to his daughter Lucina (who acts as the non-sweetspot/sourspot equivalent of Marth), Chrom's benefits are also somewhat identical to hers: they both share the trait of having the weighted average of their original fighter's damage numbers. However, this is only effective if Chrom has a stock lead since he is usually KOed first. Finally, Chrom's up special is completely different compared to Roy's, as Soaring Slash functions much like Aether compared to Blazer, and is more effective at racking up damage than KOing while onstage it can even act as a niche sacrificial KO at extremely low percents out of a forward aerial, and otherwise acts as a deterrent for edge-guarding that Roy lacks. Chrom also notably lacks any of Roy's distinctive flame effects and reverse-gripped animations, and his forward tilt moves him slightly forward. However, Chrom's primary difference is his sword's lack of a sweetspot and sourspot, making him more oriented towards spacing out his opponents at the cost of having lower damage output and knockback up close, compared to Roy (who focuses more on getting up close to his opponent for very hard hits). As a result, Chrom shares an almost similar gameplan: he is mainly a rushdown character, who aims to overwhelm his enemy by closing the distance quickly with fast movement. In World of Light, he is fought on the Ω form of Castle Siege.Īs the Echo Fighter of Roy, Chrom's moveset and animations are primarily based on those of Roy, and his attributes are identical as well, with excellent yet polarized overall mobility (very fast dashing, air, and falling speeds, alongside a very effective dash dance, but a slightly above-average walking speed, slow air acceleration and a low midair jump) and good frame data for a weapon user. With the exception of the third method, Chrom must then be defeated on Arena Ferox.
Chrom's Double-Edge Dance is also notably weaker than Roy's equivalent move. Chrom's Soaring Slash offers very little horizontal distance compared to Roy's Blazer and can be easily gimped due to its predictable nature, especially by characters with counterattacks. This drastic difference in tier placement is due to Chrom's infamously poor recovery.
This is significantly lower than his base fighter Roy, who is ranked 8th out of 82 on the current tier list and placed in the S tier. Ĭhrom is ranked 43rd out of 82 on the current tier list, placing him in the B+ tier. Both voice actors initially revealed their roles on their Twitter accounts. Matthew Mercer and Tomokazu Sugita, who voiced Chrom in the English and Japanese versions of Fire Emblem Awakening respectively, reprise their roles in the international and Japanese versions of Ultimate. In addition to his role as a playable character, Chrom remains a part of Robin's Final Smash, Pair Up. Chrom is Roy's Echo Fighter, thus being classified as Fighter #25 ε, though his lack of sweetspots makes him parallel Roy the same way Lucina parallels Marth. Rool in the Nintendo Direct on August 8th, 2018. He was announced as a newcomer alongside Simon, Richter, Dark Samus, and King K. Chrom ( クロム, Chrom) is a playable character in Super Smash Bros.
