Roy doesn't actually outperform Marth anymore in Smash 4. Marth got range + damage increases, along with several new links like single jab into tip ftilt kill setups.
Roy meanwhile is limited by his short effective range along with higher lag time on his aerials, along with "fast falling" aerial mobility. Even if Blazer > Dolphin Slash, Marth's floatier aerial mobility makes him actually have better movement and recovery than Roy.
Roy IMO is definitely more stylish though, with his more vibrant colors along with fire effects compared to Marth. Also, even if Roy's original game was not the best out of the GBA ones, it was still miles better and more liked than the original Fire Emblem and Shadow Dragon remake.
