Good stuff, i can see percente doesn't matter for guys lol. Not sure it was a fun ditto to play, but it sure was fun to watch.
Welcome to the Megaman boards.
how tough are ya ?
Against Robin, recently i find that trying to get in on him as Megaman doesn't usualy work out for me. Try tossing the LS sometimes, just make sure you have the right distance(i think that the max lemon range is enough) so that you can shoot it and immedietaly shield. When i do that i usually hit Robin or just avoid whatever he wants to follow up with if arcfire hits my shield.
I used to have a lot of trouble against Robin, and i think i'm getting better but i'm still don't have 100% knowledge of this MU. Gonna quote the advice another player gave me:
"Robin's a weird character to have issues with. He's slow and doesn't have much reliable anything. I can't think of anything of his that's dangerous to MegaMan.
Robin relies almost entirely on Arcfire, making sure that it goes where he wants it is paramount to his gameplay. Lemons don't negate it, but they do cause it to detonate where they collided. Since Arcfire has a long startup animation that makes it pretty obvious, just shoot it. You'll either hit the fire and put it where Robin doesn't want it to be right now, or hit Robin. Unlike Ness' PK Fire, it isn't affected by gravity, so if you metal blade it at an odd angle in the air, you can actually go right under it with a slide or by low profiling at the beginning of your dash.
Thoron's pretty easy too. The move is essentially more dangerous as a mindgame than it is when it hits you, as it won't kill MegaMan until really high percents. Being afraid of it is your worst option against it, and like most charge moves, I love baiting it and quickly getting out of there with Rush.
In general, Robin's smashes and smashed aerials are the only thing you need to worry about ever, and he shouldn't be able to close in on you to execute them. I think the thing that catches me off guard the most is Elthunder, and that's honestly because of how aggressive I am when playing against Robin."
Granted, this was before the patch gave him that Dthrow for combos, but i think the idea is still the same: pester him with your projectiles and keep him out.
Anyone there with more Robin experience, help this man out.
