Is the joke that Rob mains say this a lot? Rob doesn't need these things to be good right?

@@phillberry8 it's a joke you can use on more characters. he doesn't need them to be good the joke is he's already too good

Ah, after all these years, it is here. From me, and all the others on the ROBcord who share the same sentiment, thank you. This is a certified banger.

For reaaaaal. I remember Zackray vs Mkleo and inmediately search for art of ROB. Time has passed but my passion has not

Yeah I'm pretty stoked. I only play with a few friends of mine in person and picked up ROB a few months ago and was sad that there wasn't an Izaw guide. Now gonna watch this many times 😊

keep up the series bro, always high quality!

[@paulfish97]

The Gyro on the ground knocks in the direction ROB is facing ONLY when it's thrown or dropped, not shot. While it's spinning on the ground with down b, it sends away from the gyro. That explains the gyrozone and everytime the opponent tries without success to catch grounded gyro. I'm referring to 5:57

[@swatea32]

Just wanted to make a small correction, it sends away from it once it is spinning on the ground specifically. If it’s shot from down B but it hasn’t settled yet, it will follow the same rules and behaviour as if it were tossed from hand.

[@paulfish97]

@@swatea32 You're right! I've edited the comment. Thanks

[@Yeetertron]

Let’s go Rob is a character I’ve been wanting to learn for a while now, this couldn’t have had better timing

This character r.o.b.s me of my happiness

Seeing all the Rob BS compiled into one video really hurts to see. Character is nuts.

IzAw you're videos are so clean and professional and so well edited. Prime work. That first "because he needs it" caught me off guard. 😂 Sheik next please please please! 🙏🏼

Something i'm not sure he mentioned was aiming the laser down at the opponents feet to potentially poke their shield

Pac-Man guides that are high quality don’t exist on KZbin you would be really filling a need

[@canmx121]

thanks for the vid I love watching them, was legit just watching the art of Dk again yesterday to get him into elite

[@absoluteaquarian]

Something not covered in this video: the startup frames of R.O.B.'s Up-B give him an "ungrabable" state akin to what you get after being thrown. This can lead to funny situations like Captain Falcon's Up-B not being able to command grab R.O.B. off-stage.

[@swatea32]

Grounded up B also has two or three frames of full invincibility for no reason I can think of

[@cceras5645]

I just wanna say that your commitment to continue this series is incredible, I love watching your guides whenever trying to main a new character (which happens a lot xD) KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

[@tonberry2670]

I kinda like that ROB is an actually good character now. If you don't know, the entire gaming industry wouldn't even exist were it not for what ROB represents. My dude deserves the relevance

[@yordvandamme]

After quitting for a couple years, this guide is a great overview to get me back on track, thank you! I learned a lot of things I can optimize I didn't even know about back in the day.

[@DanielTheRobot]

I HAVE BEEN WAITING 9 YEARS FOR THIS AWESOME VIDEO

[@JezoShow]

Not mentioned in the vid: after landing nair, you can run under your opponent and turnaround z-drop gyro. This is very handy if in the corner and need to turn around and generally more consistent than using uair to turnaround. Another little trick at 0 is if you're on ledge and someone is standing at neutral get up, you can drop from ledge, dj toss gyro, nair. If you hold forward all the way, depending on positioning, you'll cross them up and hit them with the backside of nair after the gyro toss, leading to the usual double toss confirm off-stage. This video is so good tho. Happy labbing~

[@hontoukarappo5912]

We got art of rob in the 2nd half of 2024 before gta VI

[@jacksimoniello6292]

the king has delivered 👑

[@carloilfanSuperMammaMia2]

Thanks to you,I became a good Sephiroth player, so you deserve my subscription

[@jasonlee2767]

so hyped that this came out!!!! Thank you for this!! Does anyone know why holding shield, jump, and A and forward auto catches gyro after up throw? Also why does throwing gyro do like 1.5% more damage and go 3 tiles farther than throwing it with A or control stick LOL

[@centrixal]

The grabbing gyro is to do with buffered inputs where grabbing has higher priority than other inputs. As for the gyro dealing more percent, item tech in smash ultimate is incredibly complex. In this scenario, what's happening is that every character has both a tilt and smash throw in each direction with unique frame data. When pressing a, rob does a tilt throw which launches the gyro at a slightly lower speed. This is why you need smash stick on to do the method in the video. This usually wouldn't affect things, but gyros damage is proportional to its velocity, so unlike other items, it being thrown faster does matter. It's also why if you shoot a gyro at a king k rool using the blunderbuss vacuum off-stage, the wind speeds the gyro up and make the k rool practically explode off the side. I'd reccomend checking out whydo's video on item tech, though even that barely scratches the surface

[@kpdxw5570]

Art of rob: Step 1: Give away any self respect you may have left. Step 2: Nair.

[@LiorRonen]

Great vid! I'd love to see diddy kong next, just like rob (and snake which I think coming soon) he's a meta pick with a ton of options in neutral and advanced tech

[@andrewwalden2005]

Spinny arms never getting nerfed is one of the wildest things I’ve ever seen in modern gaming

[@Homunculeo]

At 20:00 . Do I have to Z Drop the Gyro or can I also Down Toss it ? It would be easier for me to input because of the controls

[@MkLytherin-ul7gg]

[@7evan.]

At 10:53 what does “UP B SNAP” mean? Is this a tech ever explained in the video?

[@ShuckleShellAnemia]

Recovery moves cause your character to grab the ledge from further away. In the clip, ROB is using up-special in order to “snap” to the ledge quickly for the ledge trump.

[@7evan.]

@@ShuckleShellAnemia ahh so it's kinda similar to how cloud can ledge trump with his up b. Thank you.

I love that we can hear how much you suffered against some of these options. I know a mate that wanted to pick up R.O.B. but I am unsure if I want to send him this cause this looks like a nightmare to play against. Could you maybe make a guide how to counter R.O.B. too? Cause in this video it sounds like there is like no counterplay at all?

I know this videos pn R.O.B but i gotta ask, does anyone know how to start learning smash? O basically have 4 hours and still wven cant input any move by themselves. Just wondering any specific techniques for inputsvor just learning the game

[@thearcanehunter2736]

This same channel has some banger "art of smash" videos, I highly recommend them! Just remember to master techniques before moving onto the next part (there are 5 parts) and look into character specific, up to date tips and tricks. Also try to pick one character as your main, who you will play for the majority of the game. Trying to learn a ton of characters at a time is a nightmare! I personally play Lucina, with Zelda and Greninja as secondaries if I feel like it.
