Undid edit by 174.91.84.118: transcendent priority wouldn't allow for better connections. It would prevent clashing which is unlikely to happen when the only one who can do that is in the infinite

Robin has been given a mix of buffs and nerfs in the transition to ''Ultimate'', with both buffs and nerfs being of equal weight. While he benefits from a considerably improved advantage, the faster pace of ''Ultimate'' and the miscellaneous nerfs to some of his tools make it more difficult to capitalize on this. Collectively, it is hard to determine whether Robin was buffed or nerfed overall.

Several of Robin's attacks have reduced lag or increased KO power, while most of his formerly situational attacks are more effective due to altered hitboxes: [[up tilt]] now has grounded hitboxes, and [[up smash]] has much better horizontal reach above Robin, significantly improving their reliability. [[Neutral aerial]] can now use the Levin Sword, giving it much better utility and better edgeguarding capabilities. Robin's [[neutral attack]], a staple in his [[neutral game]], also fares significantly better due to several improvements with its consistency; the Elwind infinite now has [[transcendent priority]], allowing it to connect significantly better, and the Arcfire finisher transitions earlier while using half the durability it used to in ''SSB4''.

Robin's special moves have been heavily revamped. With the exception of the uncharged version, all versions of {{b|Thunder|Robin}} hit much harder and now function as effective KO moves, especially Thoron; the move can now also be [[charge-cancel]]ed by jumping. [[Arcfire]] is much harder to escape from and travels much farther, making it even more effective for combo initiating. [[Elwind]] can have its trajectory significantly altered and grants more distance, recharges faster, and pushes opponents if the wind blades hit the ground. Finally, [[Nosferatu]] has slightly more range, heals and deals damage at a faster rate; while it has fewer uses, this also allows it to generate a used tome much faster.
