ROB Q&A!! Read this before asking questions...ALL OF IT!

[Kaoculus]

hm really? i must be screwing up, i can only get in the grab half the time after i trip for some reason. it's actually more reliable for me when they shield the first one cuz i just go in for the grab right afterwards.

 

[ccst]

What to do when MK is:

Uairing the crap out of you? WBGC doesn't work...

Spamming Who... I mean Tornado?

I don't see why it's 35:65 to us, it's 30:70... =/

 

[-LzR-]

35-65 or 30-70 is the same ****, it still sucks.
You know what you can do about uair juggling? Kinda like nothing, our falling speed and huge frame makes it perfect for MK. NEVER GET ABOVE MK.
Also, you can always win nado from above, so I guess a well spaced fair can handle the job or a laser if you have time. Most of the other time, you are screwed.

 

[FEAR977]

Any tips on the fox MU. Fox is too fast and powerful and I always get ***** by uair and usmash.
Any advice will help.

 

[Allied]

ROB vs MK is 55:45

in robs favor.

 

[ccst]

LoL troll.

 

[GwJ]

Naw, I think he's serious.

ROB's nair has an amazing hitbox
Lazer ***** nado and sideB
Retreating Fair owns his approach
Bair cancels his shuttle loop

I'd say 50:50 or 55:45 ROB like Allied said.

 

[Allied]

50:50 seems better

Worse on Cps though obviously


I 2 stocked shugo's mk

come at me bro.

 

[FEAR977]

Why is ROB so good against diddy?

 

[Allied]

You must be trolling too right?

 

[GwJ]

No I'm serious. It's really not as bad as you all say it is.

 

[-LzR-]

Well what you just said is horribly wrong. Laser does win against sideB, but no MK is going to use it anyways. Rob's nair doesn't have an amazing hitbox.
Retreating fair doesn't own his approach.
And everything in the game cancels his shuttle loop.

 

[ccst]

Oh please...

 

[GwJ]

You kidding me? Lazer does so good against SideB and nado. As long as you space correctly, you can counter most instances of it.

Nair also DOES have an amazing hitbox. In fact, it's like a conglomerate of hitboxes circling him like a pizza pie.

Retreating Fair DOES own his approach; you're doing it wrong.

Bair is still sexy.

 

[ccst]

Since when did retreating Fairs "own his approach"? You just beg about a tornado. And please PLEASE explain to me how you can say that this's a "50:50" match-up or even in R.O.B.'s favour?! Are you insane LoL!?

 

[-LzR-]

Laser is so slow that MK can reach you before you are able to release the move and MK won't be using nado that far when you have time to do it and no MK is going to sideB. Also, like ccst said, retreating fair is asking for nado, which leads to a juggle. Oh and did I mention Rob can't recover?

 

[FEAR977]

Just a random question, who are the best robs?

 

[GwJ]

LzR, you obvious lazer wrong if you get hit.

When you retreat fair, just use a Nair to hit MK out of his nado.

Simple.

 

[-LzR-]

You can't nair while you are fairing obviously, but I get your point. Well, you press B, Rob leans backwards, MK presses B and is now in Rob's face ready to ****. gg.

 

[GwJ]

That's why you space.

 

[-LzR-]

That's why the MK will space too, beating you in it.

 

[CJTHeroofTime]

Sooooooooooooooo theres a tourney near my school in December so I'm playing Brawl again. Anything happen to the metagame in the past 9 months? Or is ROB still outclassed by all of his minor shortcomings? Any crazy matchup twists? Jumpman are you trolling? And WHERE ARE SUDAI AND JCAES????? I dont see them posting, and it makes me a saaaad panda....



....robot.

 

[Sharky]

ummm look up wavebounce gyro canceling, that's about it =P

 

[GwJ]

That's why the MK will space too, beating you in it.

Again, you're just doing it wrong.

 

[Silhouette]

Lol GwJ you troooooooolin =]

If MK knows the MU you're f*cked

GwJ's advice > MK who doesnt know the MU.
-Unless you're Allied 2 stockin fools.

 

[GwJ]

They see me trollin'

 

[CJTHeroofTime]

ummm look up wavebounce gyro canceling, that's about it =P

I said past 9 months, not 9 years

 

[stingers]

well, there have not been any new ATs discovered, which is to be expected as this game is about 2 and a half years old. However, there have been many advances in ways to actually play the character, which you probably would've known if you'd been playing the past 9 months in the first place. There's no real way to explain everything to you anyway.

 

[Sudai]

And WHERE ARE SUDAI AND JCAES????? I dont see them posting, and it makes me a saaaad panda....



....robot.

*****, check the social. I don't post anywhere but there unless something really catches my attention lol.

 

[Deleted member]

i dont know why but i cant consistantly pivot gyro with rob. Like 75% of the time is comes out as just a turnaround gyro.

I dont play any characters that ever pivot down b, so help!

 

[Sharky]

lol stocky

what I normally do is a half circle with the control stick from the direction I'm facing to the direction I want to go, obviously pressing b in the middle.

 

[Indigo Jeans]

Man GwJ, you're legit and all, but I'd say don't troll in the Q&A thread. People come here expecting serious answers, and might take what you say as true without sticking around long enough to find out you're trolling. You should prolly keep that in the social.

Which, might I add, is in serious need of moar you.:leek:

i cant even find the ****ing social

i might be ********

Edit: Yep, I'm ********

I know, I need to visit the social more often. I keep getting caught up reading the Black Ops/Zelda Mafia/Proving Grounds threads.

Can anyone give me a detail description on R.O.B.'s glide toss?

My friend was able to run passed R.O.B.'s down-b, slide across the stage and toss it up.

How do I do this?

Detailed is a bit hard because its pretty simple.

Basically you just roll and hit the cstick in whatever direction you want to throw the item. Theres different timings you can do to get a short toss and a longer toss.

You can't do it with the gyro on the stand though.

 

[ccst]

You press a direction, and then press R and the C-stick or A. C-stick is the easiest.

 

[Indigo Jeans]

Basically ROB has a four frame window during the beginning of his forward roll where you can press either Analogue stick+Z, Analogue Sick+A, or a C-Stick direction to cancel his roll into a glide toss. Inputting a toss on frame 1 gives you the best possible slide, and inputting on the other three gives you an okay one. That's pretty much all there is to it.

Though like Cubone said, you have to actually shoot the gyro from the stand first and pick it up before you can glidetoss. Seems like it would be obvious but yeah.
