Robin
C TierRobin excels at zoning and controlling space with a mix of projectiles and powerful attacks. Utilize Thunder to quickly harass opponents and follow up with Arcfire to trap them, but be cautious of its long end lag, which can leave Robin vulnerable if overused. Leverage Elwind not only for recovery but also to disrupt low recoveries, creating opportunities for edge-guarding. However, Robin struggles against fast, aggressive characters that can close the distance quickly, so maintaining distance and managing tome usage is crucial to avoid being overwhelmed.
