## Voice Actor

### Japanese

Yoshimi Ninomiya

**Roll** (ロール, *Rōru*) is a playable newcomer, hailing from the *MEGAMAN* series. She is one of the unlockable Megaman characters who actually got teased during Zero's trailer, along with Protoman. She is voice provided by Angie Beers in the English version, and Yoshimi Ninomiya in the Japanese version.

Roll's design is based off of her design as of classic appearance since *Megaman 9*, with her personality being brought from all iterations of her among the Megaman universe. Moveset-wise, she takes some techniques from the Megaman games where she appears, or have a special ability in, as well as the "*VS.*" series she may be put into.

She currently doesn't have a tier list placement, however, she is considered to be a middle tier character.

## Attributes

Stat-wise, Roll shares traits of the other characters in her series have. She shares the wonky controls that originated in the orignal Megaman titles, except she's a bit lighter and floatier than Mega Man. She's also slower, being the slowest out of her series. She's also a bit smaller than Megaman, causing her to be able to dodge more attacks than her brother.

Moveset-wise, she is the most different compared to the other Megaman characters, in that she's more reliant on melee attacks, similar to Zero. Roll is designed to excell at close, mid and long range, with her broom being able to space out her opponents and close in when necessary. Compared to her slow movement, she has some of the quickest attacks in the game, and combined with her range and ability to change up her fighting style.

Her special moves are great as well, with her Roll Buster allowing her to have a decently strong projectile, and Beat Call allowing her to have a pressure tool. Her Eddie Call special move can also allow her to heal mid match.

Her weaknesses revolve around her poor damage and KO ability, slow movement, and unability to deal with characters who excel with projectiles, as she can be easily overwhelmed. She can also be KO'd pretty easily.
