Aside from his projectiles, R.O.B.'s grounded game is also excellent. His [[neutral attack]] comes out on frame 3 and acts as a quick move at low percentages to escape pressuring situations, and it can also [[jab lock]] and combo. [[Forward tilt]] is useful for spacing since it comes out on frame 7, can kill at high percents, and can hit many characters' ledge hangs. [[Up tilt]] comes out on frame 4, and is great for acting as an anti-air and combos into his up aerial. [[Down tilt]] is R.O.B.'s single-best move in his entire kit, as it lowers his hurtbox, has great range, is tied with his jab as his fastest move at frame 3, pressures [[shield]]s, beats [[shield grab]]s, and its total active frames is only 14, meaning it is one of the safest pressuring moves in the game. It also combos into itself at lower percentages, and at higher percents, it can combo into grab or dash attack, and can send opponents into a jab lock-based scenario for a KO at relatively low percentages. Lastly, [[dash attack]] is useful for punishing landings and whiffs, is extremely fast at frame 7, has relatively long range, and can combo into his forward air at low to medium percentages.

R.O.B.'s air game is also great, thanks to the excellent and disjointed ranges of all excluding [[forward aerial|one]] of his aerials. [[Neutral aerial]] has large, disjointed hitboxes that make it great for covering the opponents' options if lacking the range to deal with it. It is also very hard to punish [[out of shield]] due to its damage, total [[landing lag]] (7 frames) and range. It is also a reliable combo starter at low to medium percentages when [[SHFF]]'d, as well as a useful spacing option and, to a lesser extent, a KOing tool. [[Up aerial]] is a great vertical KO move due to its large and long-lasting hitboxes, fast startup, and the last hit’s high knockback. [[Back aerial|Back]] and [[down aerial]]s are R.O.B.'s most damaging aerials when [[sweetspot]]ted, and they too have large and disjointed hitboxes, much like neutral aerial. However, they also boast their own specific strengths: back aerial has recovery potential thanks to it propelling R.O.B. forward, and it is his only aerial that can KO in neutral due to its incredible knockback and huge hitbox. Meanwhile, his down aerial is a powerful [[meteor smash]] that can hit below the ledge and KO very early if done so. It is also active for 6 whole frames, making it difficult to avoid for characters with linear recoveries. Lastly, [[forward aerial]] is R.O.B.'s fastest aerial coming out on frame 6, making it very spammable in neutral due to how low committal it is to use, as it is safe on shield. However, its hitbox has much shorter range and is not disjointed.

R.O.B.'s [[grab]] game is also quite outstanding. [[Forward throw|Forward]] and [[back throw]]s are decent for spacing and setting up edge-guards. The latter can also KO at the ledge at very high percents, and both can combo into dash attack or Gyro at minimal percents. In comparison, R.O.B.'s [[up throw]] is comparatively more useful: it is his most damaging throw, a solid KO move (especially when boosted by [[rage]] or if he lands on a platform), and can even be used for combos at low percentages. His down throw, despite not being a KOing move, is also one of his best tools for sealing a stock. While it deals poor damage, it [[bury|buries]] opponents, allowing for follow-ups into up tilt, up air, or even up smash. However, with excessive [[button mashing]], the opponent can typically get out before R.O.B. has any chance to act. As such, it is more of a read-based tool rather than a guaranteed method for taking a stock.
