Overview Matchups

Introduction

Considered total garbage when Aftermath first dropped, RoboCop was simply misunderstood by the community at large. While a few buffs and the Kustom Variation patch certainly helped, it wasn't until A F0xy Grampa put the time in that the world realized Officer Murphy is arguably the most oppressive zoner this game would ever see. Low Auto-9 and Terminal Strip perfectly emphasize this; the former offering a fast mid projectile that can low-profile other fireballs, while the latter becomes a massive hurdle for anyone who manages to make it into kissing distance against Robo. On the other hand, RoboCop doesn't really want to press buttons, and even if you do land a touch, you're not going to build a lot of damage for doing so. RoboCop likely won't be seen much in competitive play, but he still remains a brutal filter capable of extracting salt for anyone not mentally equipped to challenge him.

Strengths

Weaknesses

Guns, Guns, Guns: Probably the best if not only "pure" zoner in the game with Low Auto-9 and Cobra Assault Cannon. The low profile property on the former also makes counter-zoning RoboCop much harder. YOU'RE NICKED: Terminal Strip is the best command grab in the game, hitting Mid(!) and offering respectable damage, corner carry-on amp. It keeps him a threat at close range while chucking opponents away for further zoning. Fists Of The Law: Robocop is a very dangerous character at close range, with overheads that lead to Krushing Blows, a very strong low on B4 that almost immediately negates any incoming standing attacks, and utility like Terminal Strip and Flamethrower offering safer yet still threatening options to extend the pressure. Space Control: Cheval Trap adds damage over time to complement the lockdown from his projectiles. Strike/Throw Game: Confirming into Amplified Flamethrower or Amplified Cheval Trap gives you a free strike/throw mix-up that can loop if they guess wrong, meter permitting. 1100 HP: Being tied for most health in the game with Shao Kahn is a boon for his zoning game as he'll start every round at a life lead against everyone but Shao and the mirror.

Weak Combo Game: Lacks decent combo starters (mostly for lows, as a lot of his combos are mid-focused). Stubby Buttons: His normals don't come with a lot of range, safety, or mix potential. However, Robocop focuses on forward and back combos with very little neutral focus, so this isn't a major issue. Only One Free Variation Slot: Playing RoboCop seriously requires Low Auto-9 and Terminal Strip, limiting build options to Cheval Trap or Flamethrower if you're feeling frisky. Big Body: And all the combo damage that comes with it.
