I doubt I was the first to discover this but I put a ton of work into grinding out the details. This Combo works on every character exepct Jigglypuff. I have a spread sheet going into detail about the combo against each character. I hope this helps boost Robin's Viability

YouTube Video of the combo, https://youtu.be/sQ_GiYpVGc8 Unfortunately, I do not have a capture card so this is the best I can do

Edit: Here's the combo in a real match, https://youtu.be/iw5dHwlxHiA?t=56s I'm not that great of a Robin, you have every right to cringe at the video



How the Combo Works:
Have a Tome in hand

Arcthunder < RAR jump < Footstool < Z-Drop Tome < Follow DI < Back-Air

Some Characters only fly in the direction where the Arc thunder hit, that's why I made a spreadsheet going into full detail, if anything is wrong please post on this thread

The basis of this combo (Arcthunder->Footstool->Z-dropped book->follow-up) has been known for a while, but idk about this specific variation. I'm not sure if Arcthunder to footstool things is even used much at higher levels of play.

I've used it a few times in matches, I will admit though I only find it useful in like 1 of 12 matches, I usually use Arcthunder footstool after I read a ledge option.
