Edit: if you are comfortable grading the matchup, please do so in a xx:yy format.Zero Suit: 40:60 - ZSS has incredibly good setups on us. Firing a paralyzer at the correct distance can often leave us in a no option scenario where we cannot punish her unless we predict the shot and short hop over it into fair (a charged one might catch ROB's huge base though). ZSS's upb off the ground is frame four, has a large hitbox and reduces SDI to 0 starting on the third hit. This means if you do not slip out right away, it can and will kill you even at around 90 percent if she has good rage. She can do it to punish ledge rolls, ledge get up and ledge attacks, making us very vulnerable at the ledge. Much like bouncing fish, her down b can be used to mvoe over ROB's projectiles, but is not as fast. I don't recommend trying to challenge it with a fair due to excessive amounts of invincibility and the fact that the kick part of the move beats our aerials. You are better off shielding and then punishing immediately with a usmash out of shield or fair. If she foolishly charges a paralyzer while you are not engaged in anything, robo-spin will reflect and freeze her, allowing you to follow through into the uppercut of it. Be aggressive in this matchup. You will not usually win at trying to camp. She can snatch gyro easily with lots of her approaches, even on accident (mostly her ff nair and dash attack will do this to you the most). Uair is not as effective on her. It will sometimes trade with her dair even when it is not in the diving variant, and her nair is quite large if you come from the wrong angle. Use air for your early combos, but I recommend getting kills through gimps, reading her recovery and continually poking her back off of the stage. Be very careful of her down b if you ever get below her off stage on accident.
