I recently Discovered some impractical tech for Robin. Basically after a footstool Robin can Follow Up with a downward item toss of either the Tome or the Levin Sword that puts the opponent into forced get up state.
The only issue is that this only works at Low %'s and would require a lot of Set Up to preform, thus making it pretty impractical. Here is a video showing A Combo that you can preform at low %'s.

This isn't just limited to Arc Thunder, You can follow up Arc Fire with a footstool as well. Either way its still a pretty impractical setup.

Here is a list of when This Lock stops working for Each characters with Both the Tome and Levin Sword.

Seems like you're three steps ahead

Good find though. You can maybe just footstool off them if you happen to read their jump that close lol

This is neat. It's pretty situational, but I'll keep it in mind when I have a tome/sword in hand after taking a stock.

That's exactly what I was thinking. Its not definitely not something you can preform at the beginning of a match. but after taking a stock you might be able to catch your opponent off guard with this.

Just thought I'd mention that this still works in the new patch (1.0.6)

I'm sorry, I actually really don't know any Robin combos besides this one.
I'm not even that good with this character anyways, so I'm not sure I'd be able to help you out.
