Just prevent the dreaded 1 blade Elwind. You should always get 2 blades of wind. Just like you can fully charge to Thoron with just 1 bar of lightning tome. Not only does a 1 blade Elwind barely move you, it will not let you ledge snap even if you are in range.

I used Female Robin in Smash 4 only for the Red color (My handle is Crimson) and for the Red Robin jokes. But they changed Red Robin's hair from Red to Blonde in Ultimate AND you now have to re-select your color after every match!!! So, now I just use the default male robin because changing...

Completely agree here. Also have you noticed that a single blade will not let you ledge snap? Don't know why they needed to add the extra salt there. I use Nosferatu a lot. It is great after taking a stock and the opponent comes in fresh, you can heal for an easy 20%. Try to Nosferatu at an...

But Arc Fire into anything is a gamble. Some characters can get out of Arcfire really easily. Plus it clangs with a jab. Back in Smash 4 when Arcfire would detonate if you hit it, things were great. But now it has huge lag, can be brushed of with a jab, and can be DI'd or UP B'd out of.

People say that they don't want o be able to spam arcfire. Why not? Robin has no safe moves. All of his attackes are punishable. Look at the top tier characters. They all have spam moves that are safe AND can combo off of. I don't want pk fire type spams, and in fact think NEss pk fire needs a...

So all pro gamers are shallow because they play to win tournaments and make money? really? wow. Does that hold true for all pro sports players as well?

I don't know what you are referencing regarding Smash 4, Robin never placed high in the largest tournaments and was placed low on all tier lists. I played robin for Smash 4, and a few items I complained about got fixed since then ( tome gauge, directional upB, and better knockback with thoron.)...

But I also don't think it is fully constructive to pretend there are no short comings. Voicing concerns around balance issues is the only way to see patches that correct them. Let's be honest, Robin does have shortcomings that are more than most top tier characters. there is no reason NOT to...

You prefer that Robin is handicapped in a way that lowers his viability? Why on Earth would you want that? Any help Robin can get would be great. I would much rather Robin ascend to a high tier rating. If I had my wish, they would drop the disappearing abilities all together. It wouldn't make...

Stating "Don't use it in neutral game" completely sidesteps the issue that it should be usable in neutral. So many other characters can quickly spam projectiles in this game without any real recovery or startup, including Ness with his very similar pk fire. Robin is NO WHERE near the top of the...

There is no easy solution here. You need to practice proper spacing. Work on staying just outside their attack reach. try to bait them into making a mistake. short hopping in and pulling back to land can help put pressure on them. If you block and get chance to strike back use a jab. And make...

I feel like the main heroes from River City Ransom (AKA Crash and the Boys) are built perfect for SmashBros. They have 3 games to pull moves from NES, GBA, 3DS. plenty of normal and special moves to choose from. If you havent played these games, you need to. One of the best games on NES. Check...

Used tomes are nerfed from Smash 4. I dont find them worth the effort anymore. What absorbing character are you talking about? Ness/Lucas? I don't use many projectiles against them. try to short hop attack most of the time. Only use projectiles as a counter measure, not to attack. You can save...

Down tilt is descent and up tilt combos after down throw. But yes, air moves should ALWAYS be Levin if available. Don't know what they were thinking. Overall I think the NERFS out-weigh the BUFFS Robin received. BUFFS: Excellent Elwind Longer range/longer lasting Arc Fire. Slightly faster...

I am not sure why you insist everyone have C-stick set to Smash. I have C-Stick set to tilt and use A+B for arials. Its far easier to get a smash out with the left stick than a tilt. Why create 2 smash sticks?
