| intro = Robert has flip-flopped between being a motion input or charge character throughout the series, but in KOF XV Robert is a motion input "shoto" character, almost unchanged from KOF XIV. Playing Robert boils down to zoning the opponent with his Ryu-Geki Ken fireballs, knocking them out of the sky with his Ryuuga DP, and otherwise keeping them at bay with good neutral buttons like st.B and CD. With easy combos and a straightforward game plan, Robert is a great choice for people looking for a traditional shoto character. He works well in any position, but is most popular at point, where his fireball game can shine.

* Jack of all trades, with a solid fireball game and mix-up options.
* '''Jack-Of-All-Trades''': With a solid fireball game and mix-up options, Robert can succeed well in any role. He's probably the most standard shoto in the game, but also comes with all the standard shoto benefits.
* Good range on normals.
* '''Long Legs''': Robert's kick normals take great advantage of his legs and thus have great range and solid safety. 6B stands out as a nasty callout tool and midrange poke that moves him forward, while his 2B can be cancelled into 214BD for good damage and corner carry midscreen.
* Easy to use and confirm CD.
* '''Blowbacks''': Robert has a great grounded blowback which can easily convert into respectable damage from anywhere with his EX specials and supers. He also has an exceptional j.CD, with a big hitbox and a retracted hurtbox. This allows him to trade hits in the air quite well.  
* '''Good Pressure''': Robert's corner game is solid overall. He has good normals for keeping up the attack and his fireballs can help cover his block strings. Robert even has a command grab for opening up opponents who have been blocking for too long.  
* '''Easy''': Robert has no bad tools, which means his entire kit is very accessible. He has versatile and easy combo options and can spend 0.5 bars to extend combos very easily.
| cons=
| cons=
* Fireball recovers slower than average.
* '''Slow Fireballs''': Robert's fireballs are a tad slower than usual, meaning it can be hard for him to punish jump-ins during a fireball war.  
* Cancels have inherent risk, especially if the opponent has meter for Guard Cancel Roll.

The King of Fighters XV

OverviewStrategyDataCombosReplays

Robert is the assistant instructor at Ryo's dojo. As the legitimate heir of the Garcia Foundation in Italy, Robert joined the Kyokugenryu dojo against the wishes of his father and quickly became Ryo's best friend and training partner.
Robert excels at kick attacks with his long legs. Robert also has not-so-secret feelings for Ryo's sister, Yuri.

Gameplay Summary

Robert has flip-flopped between being a motion input or charge character throughout the series, but in KOF XV Robert is a motion input "shoto" character, almost unchanged from KOF XIV. Playing Robert boils down to zoning the opponent with his Ryu-Geki Ken fireballs, knocking them out of the sky with his Ryuuga DP, and otherwise keeping them at bay with good neutral buttons like st.B and st.CD. Robert also has great meter burn options, with ample opportunity to combo into supers from Ryuuga. With easy combos and a straightforward game plan, Robert is a great choice for people looking for a traditional shoto character. He works well in any position, but is most popular at point, where his fireball game can shine.
Pros Cons
  • Jack-Of-All-Trades: With a solid fireball game and mix-up options, Robert can succeed well in any role. He's probably the most standard shoto in the game, but also comes with all the standard shoto benefits.
  • Long Legs: Robert's kick normals take great advantage of his legs and thus have great range and solid safety. 6B stands out as a nasty callout tool and midrange poke that moves him forward, while his 2B can be cancelled into 214BD for good damage and corner carry midscreen.
  • Blowbacks: Robert has a great grounded blowback which can easily convert into respectable damage from anywhere with his EX specials and supers. He also has an exceptional j.CD, with a big hitbox and a retracted hurtbox. This allows him to trade hits in the air quite well.
  • Good Pressure: Robert's corner game is solid overall. He has good normals for keeping up the attack and his fireballs can help cover his block strings. Robert even has a command grab for opening up opponents who have been blocking for too long.
  • Easy: Robert has no bad tools, which means his entire kit is very accessible. He has versatile and easy combo options and can spend 0.5 bars to extend combos very easily.
  • Slow Fireballs: Robert's fireballs are a tad slower than usual, meaning it can be hard for him to punish jump-ins during a fireball war.

A high elbow. 1f faster than cl.B, but cl.B is overall better for defense. Okay in pressure due to the plus frames. This also adjusts Robert's collision box, which would push him out of throw range when done on an opponent's wake up.

The vertical hitbox is very high, making this a good option against jumps directly above your head. cl.D is bigger but the damage is similar since cl.D is two hits, and cl.B has less risk to throw out. Be careful in the corner as Robert's collision box is pushed forward when using this. Never use this in grounded strings, as it completely misses on crouchers.

A 2-hit axe kick. Your go-to confirming heavy. Tech throws with this button in case they jump, as it covers a good area above Robert's head. One thing to note is that the two hits cause significant pushback on hit, which causes some 6A combos to whiff midscreen. You'll want to open with a C normal instead, or cancel only the first hit of cl.D.

75 Mid special 14 5 19 Splat (+76~+92) -1 - 100 160

A sharp kick forward. Fantastic range and speed. Robert has an easy time picking up combos from this anywhere on screen thanks to his massive 6B, so the threat of this normal is huge. Cancelling into fireball grants pushback and also a confirm if it hits, but is generally weaker than if uncancelled.

  • Values in [] indicate when the move is cancelled into.
  • Heavy confirm normal.
  • Causes a juggle.
  • Can be cancelled in chains or by itself.

An advancing backwards kick. Makes heavy confirms easy as Robert, and also has juggle points that allow him easy and damaging combo extensions. The move is very large, so it can be used to tag opponents in neutral while being safe on block. It's not the best on whiff however so be careful if using it like this.

  • Values in [] indicate when the move is cancelled into.
  • Overhead.
  • Cancel version loses overhead properties, but becomes special cancelable.
  • Can jump over low attacks and ground projectiles.

A short hop into a kick. While not a terribly rewarding overhead, pestering opponents with this opens them up for 2B confirms. This also can be used as a low crushing frame trap in strings.

Although difficult to time, if this hits meaty on someone's wakeup, you can link a 2A after into a combo. Robert will be throw invincible while doing this as well so it can be a useful set-up to learn.

  • A and EX version recovers in 32f.
  • C version recovers in 37f.
  • Strength determines projectile speed.
  • EX version will beat normal projectiles.

Classic fireball. Robert's is a high fireball so it's more difficult to hop over but prone to low profiling. This is the bread-and-butter of Robert's game plan. Use the A fireball to control space and force an approach. Use the C fireball to interrupt spacing attempts and disrupt their timing. The EX version helps in projectile wars and also causes a knockdown.

Cancelling into fireballs is usually a safe way of ending your block strings, but some characters can interrupt with a low-profiling move or reversal, and every character can get a punish if they Guard Cancel Roll the normal you cancelled.

  • Values in [] indicate when the move hits during later frames.

Classic shoto uppercut. The A version is ideal for anti-airs, while the C and EX version can be used as reversals. The EX version is 4f start-up, which lets it beat some safe jumps. Both the A and C versions can be cancelled, and with the way their damage is distributed they will do the same amount of damage even though the C version is usually stronger.

  • Strength determines the angle of the move.
  • Frame advantage if the divekick hits the opponent's guard deep enough.
  • EX version sends the opponent upwards for better combos.

Robert's divekick. Although this can be used to vary your jump angles, this is primarily a combo tool from cancelled 6A as it's difficult to get this to have frame advantage, although it is possible.

  • Combo tool.
  • EX version has anywhere juggle.

A rapid series of kicks. This is Robert's highest damage combo ender for juggles. The EX version is notable, as it has anywhere juggle, meaning it can combo even after air resets. The small range of this move makes that hard to take advantage of outside of the corner, but it leads to strong combos regardless. For shorter combos ending with a super cancel, you might want to avoid using this move as it adds heavy 35% scaling for normal versions and 50% scaling for the EX version.

  • Command grab.
  • EX version can be juggled after.

Robert grabs the opponent with his knee and combos them. A unique tool for a shoto to have, and makes Robert just the more scary when pressuring. The range is about the range for close proximity normals. This doesn't cause a hard knockdown, but Robert still has enough time to run up and establish a low/throw mix up, even on quick rise. The EX version leads to a short combo after, although the range on the initial grab is a little smaller.

  • C Version is faster than the A Version.
  • Can be reflected.

Robert sends a massive fireball forward. Notably used in CD confirms. The C version can be used as a hard read against fireballs.

The MAX version is even faster than the C version, making it easier to go through a fireball and punish with this.
