R.O.B. plays the role of a long-range attacker very well, with projectiles and means to keep opponents at bay. His base up close is a blind spot, making it important to keep foes away. Many of his attacks balance moderate power and range with short lag-time. His moves with actual KO potential, though, have considerable start up lag or keep him airborne longer than desired. R.O.B. is also prone to [[Stale move negation]] on his KO moves (notably his down smash which, due to its low knockback scaling, can have trouble KO'ing heavier characters even at around 200%) rendering him unable to KO at times (however, his up throw can KO reliably at above 160%). He can easily set up an edgeguard using a forward or back throw, but his most powerful aerials are difficult to land. Despite his moves boasting only moderate knockback, R.O.B. can generally keep knocking his opponent away with superior range and combine any of his moves together fairly easily. The resulting damage adds up rather quickly with an experienced player. R.O.B. is decently heavy and floaty (making R.O.B, {{SSBB|Samus}} and {{SSBB|Yoshi}} the only floaty heavyweights), but he is also a large target. He has two projectiles, both with decent knockback and unique properties, which usually mess up the opponent's approach. The major flaw with these projectiles is that they are not spammable (as they must be charged/recharged). His aerial game is also good, with his forward aerial being fast and having moderate knockback, his neutral and back aerial being powerful but difficult to land, and his down air acting as a [[Meteor Smash]] (although it has a very slow start-up). His back aerial can also aid his exceptional recovery, both his back and down aerials push R.O.B. up slightly when using [[Robo Burner]]. With the addition of [[Robo Burner]], he is quite interesting to experiment with on certain combination of attacks and techniques such as a [[Wall of Pain]]. In fact, a technique sometimes called "burner flashing," which is initiated by first using Robo Burner and then repeatedly pressing B, has been proven to be the farthest vertical traveling recovery move in one go. R.O.B.'s recovery does have its problems. He can't air dodge out of Robo Burner, making his recovery predictable for some characters and he can be juggled because he is floaty in both jumping and recovery, notably by {{SSBB|Meta Knight}} and {{SSBB|Fox}}. His slow [[falling speed|fast falling]] also makes his momentum canceling poor, getting KOed vertically at relatively low percentages, especially for his weight class. R.O.B.'s side special reflects projectiles, but characters with more spammable projectiles can easily overwhelm R.O.B. from afar, and it isn't useful as an attack. Overall, with a very flexible ranged game, R.O.B. can be a dangerous foe for many characters in the game.

The hitbox affects targets both in front of and behind R.O.B. each with decent knockback. This can be used for recovery in between Robo Burners, creating virtually the longest horizontal recovery move in the game along with [[Pound]] and [[Glide]].

|dairdesc=R.O.B. fires a blast downwards. Boosts R.O.B. up a little bit, shooting his boosters down where he was. It's powerful, yet slow and can [[meteor smash]]. Keeps him stationary in the air shortly, although he can fast fall with it as long as he's in knockback after getting hit. When [[Poison Mushroom|tiny]], R.O.B. can use this move instead of Robo Burner to recover. Provides him an unlimited [[recovery]] move, because it pushes him upward and can be used infinitely to fly up the upper [[blast line]] infinitely without getting Star KO'd, making it also the only unlimited non-[[bomb recovery]] and the only infinite recovery (when tiny) of every ''Smash Bros.'' installment. Can also perform every [[Hyrule Jump]] (only when tiny). It should be noted that the uppermost hitboxes have weaker vertical knockback.
