- Error 404. Bad Moves Not Found.
R.O.B. isn’t just good, he’s one the best in Smash Ultimate. You could scour his entire kit for flaws, and well, yeah there’s a few lackluster parts, but nearly the entire rest of his design is nothing but high octane rocket fuel. That’s not even touching on the parts of his kit that transcend even that to become some of the most powerful options in the entire game. Come with me and I explore and rank every move in ROB’s moveset, as well as breaking down the core applications and traits. This video also doubles as a ROB guide, touching on how these moves interact and work to make his kit come together into something more than the sum of its parts.
Special thanks to the ROB and Side B Discords for their help!!

Another couple things that make gyro so busted:
If you leave it on stage and stand by it, the spinning hitbox poses a threat to safely spaced aerials on your shield. You can cover their drift away and combo out of it should they challenge be daring enough to fall onto it. This same application can serve as a bait for them to go and pick gyro up themselves, which also presents a punish opportunity.
It can also be used as a dissuasive tool in the case that you don’t even use it to hit them in a very similar manner as I listed above. You shoot a gyro and leave it on the floor, the floor is no longer safe. You can anti-air them for moving around and respecting gyro’s noncommittal and lingering hitbox.
Lastly, it buffs his out-of-shield like crazy! Zdrop out of shield is active on frame 4, which is nutty in and of itself because it is a combo starter with zero-to-death capabilities (see my clip in this video during gyro section) but the application of down toss, AND ftoss out of shield are also pretty great considering both of them outspeed up smash and fair. Not only can they not hit your shield safely while you have gyro in-hand, but if they fade back too far and or land with a committal option, they get punished even from out of their own range fairly consistently.
I’m happy to have aided in the script and love the content you make Glyph! The production value is killer and I am so happy to see the character getting the love it deserves in a more comprehensive style. Keep it up!
While gyro is busted I wouldn’t say it’s the best projectile but definitely top 3. A contender for best projectile is pikachu’s t jolt and the definitely best projectile, hero’s kaboom. If hero could get kaboom when he wanted he would be top tier for free.
Those are certainly both amazing, but both pale in comparison to gyro's sheer flexibility. T Jolt is an incredible pressure and approach tool, but a lot of that strength comes from being part of Pika's kit. You stitch that onto any non-rushdown character and it loses a ton of its luster. Kaboom also is insane, but you -don't- get it every time! That's where the balance comes in, if it were something you could reliably use I'd for sure agree, but odds of it popping up when you need it is pretty slim. Gyro is 100% reliable! :]
@@Glyphmoney how strong would you say pac-mans bell is?
Up there, but not quite in the running for strongest. It's very easy to just block and pick up yourself, and being locked to the arc it has makes it easier to navigate. There's always z drops and hydrant interactions to make it a bit more dynamic, but that's a lot of hoops to jump through for something that still only really confirms into a kill if they haven't left the ground when it hits them
A cool trick for R.O.B.'s gyro I found was that if you have a gyro on the floor and you side special them while they're getting hit at the same time it does massive amounts of damage. It's really tricky to pull off, but when done it can do insane amounts of damage. Same applies if you get them in a grab and they're next to the gyro but it doesn't do as much damage.
BABE WAKE UP NEW GLYPH VID
ur pfp is rly cool
0:51 "First clip of the video is me getting the best of Gmoney? He loves me!"
27:05 "Oooookay should have seen that coming"
27:19 "OKAY GMONEY WE GET IT YOU'RE BETTER THAN ME"
27:54 "Alright back to being friends again"
4:21 wait who the hell what does this mewtwo want from me
WILLY
At least he's polite lmao!
Speak for yourself I'm waiting for the battle between these two with their mains
One of my favorite things about R.O.B. is how brilliant his kit is, especially Robo Burner. That recovery alone allows him to create a philosophy: "If there's a spike, R.O.B. has survived it before." Heck, I'm a believer that R.O.B. is easy enough for anyone to pick up, but has a whole lotta techs that make him hard to master.
Also glad to see the callbacks to how wack the Operating Buddy was back in Brawl, and how those flaws later became his greatest strengths.
Nintendo clearly wanted this, that later he's the better, since brawl the moves at them self didn't change, just the frames and hit boxes
Keep it on King!, you make me proud for being a R.O.B. Main, the best youtuber one day the algorithym light will point at you!!
Same for me #ROBMainsRISE
R.O.B MAINS RISEEEE
YES BRO LESS GO
Boop Beep mode *Activated*
This man is my and every other R.O.B main's dream.
This is super well made, I can’t believe I didn’t find it before now.
13:57
Holy crap you fought my friend! Ihadurca! That tag is far too unique to question it. He's a very good Samus player, and he's EXTREMELY good at mashing so it's extremely funny to happen to see him there!
Wait a second. That just might mean you fought me too! This was probably a long time ago, but do you remember a Pikachu and/or DH named ~Rei?
Yes!! This was in an arena that I believe you were in as well, I remember the DH in particular:]
This is Izaw level quality
Stay on the grind man!
When you can't combo because of your "stupid fingers"
If I get jumpscared, YOU get jumpscared !
Really blowing my mind here, ROB is hype as hell
24:01 this got a good genuine laugh out of me as well as this video pretty much convincing me to pickup R.O.B.
Gyro description was like: but wait! There’s more!
Holy Geez you probably have the best editing I've ever seen in smash youtube. You just gained a sub
Rob is a zoner, swordie, ressource , item, trappler, gappler, combo, recovery and 0-death character. Even hit and run or rush down works. I think ROB is the highest one in the tier list. Steve is a ressource character and makes him very predictable. My personal opinion. ROB as mix-up character allows him to almost compete every one on our raster, just falco is a bit complicated to play.
Probably one of the most well done videos I have ever seen when it comes to a character's toolkit. I didn't agree with everything but the time and effort put in was amazing.
23:44
I"M IN THE VIDEO, oh I died, lol
self note 6:13
how to save fuel w/ ROB
also 14:06 you can see what your opponent might do in a down smash - how to maybe beat a masher 16:33 (up tilt and follow up? or pretend to follow up w/ Uair and then actually Uair or fair or somethn)
Great video, u're the reason I tried out rob and he's soo fun to play thanks
Extremely informative and well-researched, and great visuals to accompany it all! This video is pretty much perfect.
Dope video! Very useful for mastering those crazy gyro throw combos! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
LOVE the RoR music. Very ROB-y. Keep on spinnin
This video is so well-made!!! Enjoyed every second of it! Make sure to keep the pace going and I'm sure you'll blow up! Makes me proud to have a R.O.B. secondary. :D
16:42 Cave Story music? I dig it
I used to hate fighting R.O.B., but now... I still hate it but I understand it. And for that I am eternally grateful. Keep making great videos!
I'm so happy you mentioned robo burner boosting 😭 great video bud
I definitely need to practice banking the gyro off the stage more often, I'm glad I've at least gotten the laser angles down as I've been messing with it since brawl
the one thing I've dropped and should try more often is the robo booster
Glad you posted again!
Yoooo very clean video Glyph! Gotta love it ❤️
R.O.B. is the most buttons heavy projectile user, definitely my favorite to play. Great video my man, keep it up!
At 4:45 when he talks about B tier moves I heard a song that brought me back to Bullet Hell flashbacks... good video either way but I’m not sure why you put the second hardest bosses music in B tier when *Empress of Light is an S+ tier boss in Terraria*
Ohhh I actually wanted this video, thank you soooo much.
love yaaa❤❤
Nice video, I personally enjoy watching and fighting ROB and learning more about the utility of his moveset lets me understand a lot more about him to improve my situational awareness during gameplay and spectating :)
P.S. tbh I think you kind of overblow how good some of his moves are (maybe I've just been hardened by how many times I've had to play vs good ROBs) but at least your sheer enthusiasm isn't boring lol
ROR2 Music? Great content? Subbed so damn hard my neighboor drilled his ceilling and struck my foot.
There's a lot of misinformation and bias (which you cleared up in the end) in this video, but I still really liked it, learned some new things, and appreciate the work you put into this! Great job!
God, the editing in this is so clean.
Although I do feel like B-air should be A-tier
I'd absolutely love to see you train a R.O.B amiibo! :)
Un saludo! Excelente contenido espero las videos de r.o.b
Arm rotor sets up to a 3 hit kill combo on characters that NEED there jump to recover and only have vertical recoveries. Like cloud and Ike.
If you get them offstage by a throw, nair, or off the final hit of an arm rotor and the player panic jumps, immediately jump and arm rotor again. This will make them lose there jump and send off stage. Then reverse up b to set up for a back air off stage to insta kill any character near the blast zone.
This works against any character that jumps immediately out of disadvantage. But the characters with better recoveries might wiggle around this combo
I didn't actually realize ftilt and fsmash down angled hit ledge! Cool, thanks!
Best R.O.B. vid I've ever seen - from a King K Rool player that has only been able to seriously limp along a R.O.B. game - WOW this is soooooo helpful!!!!!!
GMoney: Robo-Burner is best recovery.
Banjo Players: Duh-huh! You sure about that?
I stand by that!! ROB does it without blowing himself up :]
@@Glyphmoney that is true. Why go back on stage if you’re just gonna get KO’ed by a slap or the wind.
Hell i like your Videos so much :) keep the good work up
Great vid!
all your stuff is so high effort and amazing and i'd like to ask: how are you getting some of these shots? i'd love to use some of my own sometime and some of these look too good for the regular ingame camera!
I have a modded switch with unrestricted camera on it, it's been a game changer for a lot of things!!
@@Glyphmoney do you have 2 switch’s or are you risking getting banned on your switch?
Wait is that Willy the terry main pog
I have two :]
Oh. There i am at @14:02! fun matches! Cool video!
21:55 nice to see a shout out to Lucretio and Burner Boosting
Aye this needs more views this mad good
I see Glyphmoney video, I click Glyphmoney video.
R.O.B. would make a super badass anime character tbh
I will always love ROB’s insane ledge recovery 😂
Tip: always upsmash after dthrow to condition mashing for when you really need the upair or uptilt upair
Nice vid thanks ☺️
What another Glyphmoney video?! Sick!
19:48 oh. oh no.
Well done, makes me want to be a rob main.
13:03 I’m pretty sure lucas’s dthrow also buries, just for practically no time at all.
Keep up the great work, the quality is better than most people with 100 times your view count!
True, it's more of a cosmetic bury than one that actually does anything!
19:28 jezz!
them skillz
just had a thought and thought youd like to know that characters like marthcina can actually angle their recoveries ! in their case i think thats the only way they can safely land on yoshi's top plat out of shield. although, getting that angle without b reversing and then pressing back is incredibly difficult if you dont have hitlag frames to work with (same reason why dolphin slash is one of the hardest moves to tech in the game)
i think actually you can angle or influence your drift on most up specials ?? and i think is really cool and wish there was more unnecesary tech like things embedded within moves and mechanics !!
Wow, I had no idea! You learn something new everyday, thanks for sharing!!
Hmm. Best projectile. Link's remote bomb would like a word with you. Pretty much can do everything you attribute to Gyro, can be repositioned without picking it up, more potent kill power by itself, less of a threat to Link when opponents pick it up, and can be used for recovery. (granted ROB doesn't need it as much.) Also Link nair can probably give ROB's a run for it's money.
A very astute observation, it really is between those two for best! I had a short section talking about it too in early scripts that I cut for flow, but will be revisiting the subject in a video soon :]
Bro there is NO way bomb is as good as gyro wtf lmao
I felt the same way!! But, you gotta give it to bomb, it does some pretty bonkers stuff. Def doesn't hit as hard as gyro but still opens up tons of combos and even gives Link a nearly infinite recovery!
Amazing vid
That Video was so great
Amazing video! Needs more views
yes thank you for making an extremely good video
Hey Glyphmoney, great video as always. But, compared to your other videos, the quality and volume of your voice was off. Especially when you had louder music playing, it could be hard to hear you talking. Anyway, keep making these high quality smash videos!
As a gylph main, I subscribe.
Commenting to help the algorithm, this video is criminally underrated.
I don't understand why you dont have more subs
Yes, at low percents upthrow sets up for ftilt and fair. But bthrow comboes as well and both fthrow and bthrow get you in a better position which almost always leads to more damage in the long run. Not to mention you can get punished for fair when it doesn't tumble yet.
You litterly show a clip at the end where it fails lmao
Next, ill be tanking every frame of the teletubbies
Robs grab range makes me cry sometimes
15:19 I'd disagree. Shulk's being aloud to use neutral b during hitstun and PT change during the air and being much quicker tremendously help those characters more imo. Also PT losing type effectiveness and stamina were great.
HEY you could do a tier list with all zoners
5:20
When you realize that EoL's lasers in one of her attacks look mildly like ROB's Fsmash
Referring to the music btw
Who decided to give a downsmash the utility and speed of a tilt
Really accurate but imma have to say that up air should be higher. What you said about drag down combos isn’t necessarily true. It does true combo into up tilt and grab when drug down on the ground. Also the up air f smash confirm is really safe and not committal. Last it also combos from up throw at like 20 and if there are platforms it can lead to 2 or even 3 if you read their DI
Does the regular or strong shot of Robo Beam (Neutral B) have transcendent priority like wolf laser?
It does!! Goes straight through most anything but walls :]
Haven't seen the video yet, but I'm willing to bet money side-B is in S tier.
Edit: you have lost my respect.
lmao 🤣
Well, guess I know who to secondary
Really well made video. Only really disagree with the nair being S-tier by your definition of what makes a move S-tier. I believe you'll find that Ike and Shulk nair do the same thing except better. Shulk nair being an even larger version, and Ike's being even better for combos and killing. It is an amazing move just not the best in class. Keep up the good work!
ROB always reminds me of wall.E so it was already the best character for me
Mashers out of dthrow don't make the move unusable. You still have the positional advantage and you can read/cover what they're gonna do. Sometimes you can even kinda chain grab with it if they keep mashing airdodge!
Is that dthrow dtilt option actually optimal sometimes?
robo burner essentially gives rob 7 extra jumps
How do you deal with pyra mythra that know how to block my projectiles?
It's tough! You gotta find a way to use the fact that they're blocking to reposition somewhere safer, then punish their approach after. It's a very tricky thing to balance since they have such incredible frame data, but plan to go hard on the defense and you can win!!!
Glyph I don’t think your that biased with gyro but if you, are we’re both biased with are mains best projectiles
In your defense ptooie is WAY up there on the list too!
Could you send me the ROBcord discord. it says the invite is invalid
I don't play rob why am I watching this
Very good editing though God damn
y'all recommend having a secondary rob?
100%! He's a great pocket character:]
@@Glyphmoney great! I'll try it
Do little Mac next, King
Beyblade top tier? Hell yeah
lets gooooo
Nice risk of rain music
pog
The fact that dair is in B tier says a lot lmao
Every ROB Attack RANKED
Bayonetta mains: >:)
Don't underestimate fsmash. It has so much range and is very good at anti approaches, does a lot of damage and KO's early if they happen to have gotten close
12:14 but can you mash out of it tho?
Nope!! And even though ROB dies first, the opponent is stuck in the 'breaking free' animation too long to be able to act before dying either, it's guaranteed once the throw is heading offstage :]
@@Glyphmoney so what your saying is that, if your on a platform on smashville and a stock ahead, (or town and city, i always get confused by which one is which, since i play in Japanese, hero main btw) its do or die?
You got it! It's next to impossible to set up when an opponent knows about it since they just won't approach while you camp on a platform, but when the stars align it's GG every time!
Wake up people glyphmoney made another quality video
I couldn't help but notice that your laugh is cute boy
Lmao you're gunna make me blush :]
Upsmash "reliable". They need to fix that move, you don't know how many times I've lost a game or set because upsmash second hit didn't connect
