Throws
Kick of the Dragon - (b/f + C) close
- Robert grabs the opponent, then kicks them with both feet to the chest, throwing them towards the corner while Robert back flips away. The opponent lands at the corner of the screen, while Rober flips towards the opposite end.
- Soft knockdown
- Should be used to create space between you and the opponent since you can't use it for any kind of okizeme/wake-up opportunity or follow up.
Decapitating Drop - (b/f + D) close
- Robert grabs the opponent with one hand, then slams them to the ground on the other side.
- Hard knockdown
- The opponent lands a character space away from the end of the screen in the corner. The opponent wakes up as soon as Robert recovers from the throw animation making it difficult for okizeme follow-ups. Okizeme is a bit easier if the opponent lands directly in the corner.
Command Moves
Dragon-felling Kick - (b or f + A)
- This sobat kick is an overhead, that has lower body invincibility.
- Plus frames on block, neutral if cancelled from st.C or cr. C (but loses overhead property)
- On hit, and in the corner, can link into his cr. A, cr. B, charge down~up+P command throw, charge down~up+K, and even his qcfx2+K super
Soaring Dragon Kick - (b or f + B)
- A side kick that can be canceled into Robert's special moves
- Lots of pushback on block while having negative frames
- Can be canceled from his cr. A, st. B, st. C, cr. C and cr. D which makes it useful for combos
- Should not be used as an anti-air because of it's slow start-up and lack of shrinking hurt box
Double Kick - df + B
- A sliding double low kick
- Can't slide under high passing horizontal fireballs
- First hit special and super cancel-able (the timing is a bit tough)
- Can be canceled from Robert's standing and crouching normals (except his far standing normals)
- -1 frame on block but still good to use for offensive pressure
- Important command normal to use for his BC/Max Mode combos
Flying Dragon Kick - df + B/D in air
Special Moves
Dragon Blast Punch - charge b~f + A/C
Spinning Combination Kick - close, charge d~u + A/C
