Let's see how my luck is today!

Classes:
Dark Mage -> Oni Savage

Stats:
HP - 30
Str - 5
Mag - 83
Skill - 81
Spd - 61
Luck - 1
Def - 84
Res - 65

With strength like that I'm a poor excuse for a "savage." (Might as well stay D. Mage)

And that luck is............. well f*ck you too RNG.
To be fair that'd make a pretty good sorcerer (except maybe dodgy HP and Str, but Str is irrelevant). Just hope you don't run into any killer weapons with that luck, or they'll crit you to hell and back

Remember these numbers aren't your actual stats, only your growth rates.
22% is still rather low, though.

I'm officially an OP unit in Fire Emblem now ヽ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ノ

Spd - 82
Lck - 88
Def - 75
Res - 70

I'm a Lance Fighter > Dark Mage

HP- 90
STR- 13
MAG- 54
SKILL- 43
SPD- 54
LCK- 57
DEF- 70
RES - 59

Welp... I must have quit being a Lance Fighter really fast because my strength is booty. I must have left the armor on when I trained as a dark mage since my speed and skill are a bit lacking. But hey, I've got some good HP and somewhat okay defense.

*cries internally* ;-;

Although the usual high tier characters were present in Top 8 of EVO, and a :4diddy:/:4sheik:won, don't fret Robin gorls!

A:4robinf: actually won a tourney at the anime convention I went to today! It was informal with stuff like best of 1 matches and input lag in the projectors, but he was decent and I think he only lost once the whole tourney. The only thing is that he eliminated one of my friends in top 8, and my other friend in Grand Finals.

Being a guy that decided to lose first round in the tourney because I'm a huge choker, I challenged him to a BO5 after he won, and bet my $5 in exchange for regaining the pride and avenged my friends. I ended up winning the set although the matches were close-ish, so of course people were a bit confused that the last place dude beat the champion. Doesn't change the fact that a Robin actually won something :secretkpop:

I came across a Link in FG who knew some tech like Gale Guarding, moved decently well and whatnot.

The poor kid had bad fundamentals though, so I 2-stocked him 4 times out of 4 times. (Link Ditto)

Fundamentals > Character Tech.

I love utilt chaining with Toon Link on FG, especially against characters with a counter. I came across this one Shulk (RTH) who I unfortunately utilt/usmashed for ~40% until I go bored and used a charged usmash after he countered.
This is why DI exists, kids.

GG @ smokebomb12 smokebomb12 . This was a MU I was very uncomfortable with so thanks for the practice. Any tips to play against Link? I'm having a hard time trying to get the ko outside of edgeguarding situations.

Powershield for years.

Link's projectiles have little to no shield pressure excluding a fully charged arrow, and bombs are the only things that can outprioritize Robin's projectiles. And powershielding completely negates the shield pressure anyways.

Uair is your primary tool for KOs in most situations outside of a roll-read D-Smash because Link is fairly easy to juggle and a well timed Uair will at least trade with Link's Dair, that is if he goes for it, if he doesn't well than just read the airdodge or other option and attempt it then since Robin's Uair is legendary.

Robin's other Smash Attacks are of course quite unsafe to go for unless you get a read.



Play me on Monday or Tuesday if you're available.

Links one of Links main problems is when he is being combed in the air. His only options are to Nair, Dair or to air dodge. You should have kept throwing Uairs and tried reading my air dodges with them. In our matches, Arc fire is good, but you used it for defense mostly. You should have mixed up with some offence protocols. Also you grab to much. Also power shielding can be dash grabbed so don't try it. Plus it takes so much precision.
You are very good when it comes to offstage battle. Any Robin tips?
@The Soulless One want to play?

Could someone help me find some symbols from various tomes in Awakening that look cool? Adding them to my Red Robin controller, sanded down the buttons, so I can put designs on A, B, X and Y, as well as the face of the controller (as well as the rest of the controller).

Some assistance would be lovely ^^

I should be. Just mention something here if you wanna play on those days.

So let's say I don't powershield but regular shield a boomarang at around Robin's ftilt or jab, would I be able to punish you with those moves if you try to pull out a bomb?

As for Robin tips, if you recover to the ledge with zair, it would actually be a bit harder for me to nair gimp you unless I do it early. When you get hit by wind jab, you should actually be able to escape it relatively early just di-ing up and away and possibly mashing jump. Also, respect speed elthunder a bit more. There were times when you either turning away or pulling out a bomb and I just sniped you for it.

@ The_Cardinal The_Cardinal any Tips on Robin?

How to play Robin?

How to fight Robin?

How fight Robin with Shulk?

What customs you were using?

Also speaking of,

Normal thunder would of faired better than your customs because normal Thoron has multiple hit boxes to hit Link even if I hylian shield.

I should be. Just mention something here if you wanna play on those days.

It all comes down to how close you are and how well you know the link. Cause bombs can be thrown quickly.

Yes.

Link's boomerang has low cooldown on throw but his bomb pull has some notable startup.

You could get a Dash Grab, Tilt, or anything relatively quick if Link attempts Boomerang -> Bomb Pull without some sort of movement away in between or during the bomb pull.

Hell if Link is close enough you could potentially connect with Robin's F-Smash if you do it immediately.
