Combos
Unless stated otherwise, assume cl.D is hitting for both hits.
When doing midscreen confirms from heavies, Robert can generally get more stun with comparable damage by doing Shatter Strike cancels and using the combo route 0.5 meter below the amount of meter you intended to spend.

Corner
Corner CD confirm. CD is safe enough on it's own, so try to avoid cancelling into fireball near the corner so you can get this confirm. The range on 6B is large enough to where this can connect even if you're a bit of a distance from the corner. When cancelling 6B into 236, if you get 623 too often, input 236 as 2369 instead.

Robert's light and heavy confirms are the same midscreen. The meter build and corner carry is quite nice. You can cancel into 623C at the end instead for just 2 less damage and virtually the same oki and meter build, but could save you on time, since the animation for 646B/D is so long.

Cancelling 646B/D into ranbu super has a strange window that's later than expected. Be sure to wait after the 15th hit.
Max damage from a corner CD. The further back your opponent was from the corner when the CD hits, the higher you can do the j.214BD. You may need to do it higher for the extra horizontal range. These combos do not work after a Shatter Strike.
This combo is only marginally stronger than your 2 Bar combo with Quick Max, but much harder as the cancel from 646B/D must be done as late as possible, around the apex of your opponent's launch, or else the super will whiff. Overall not worth it but could be useful to know the cancel.

Robert's only efficient use of 2.5 meter midscreen. Otherwise use your 2 meter combos by themselves or after a Shatter Strike cancel.
1000 Max confirm. Microdash 623A/C is technically possible instead of 6B after j.214BD, but the timing to both connect the 623A/C low enough and properly cancel into the Climax is not worth it for the extra 6 damage.
1250 Max confirm. Using cl.C instead of cl.D after the Quick Max saves Max timer to fit the super and Climax. At 1500 Max Guage, use cl.D after the Quick Max instead.
Letting Robert run for a little after the Quick Max is what allows the 623A to connect here. Input 623A as early as possible and ohld the button to have more time to input the Climax.
