Changes from Super Smash Bros. 4

Robin's moveset seems to be unchanged from SSB4 with only a few changes in how his/her specials work, and with how some of his/her specials and attacks look.

Aesthetics

• As with all veterans returning from SSB4, Robin's model features a more subdued color scheme. His/her hair is less detailed, but his/her model and textures are otherwise unchanged.
• The player can now see how many uses Robin's Levin Sword and each one of his/her Tomes has, located next to his/her icon on the HUD.
• The green alternate costume now features Robin with light brunette hair instead of green.

Ground Moves

• First two hits of neutral attack have altered animations.

Special Moves

• Elthunder has a dark purple color compared to how it was in SSB4.
• Elwind projectiles are thicker and more opaque.
• Elwind projectiles are also sent in more diagonal angles, instead of completely downwards.
• Nosferatu is more opaque and has fewer particles, now looking more like a dark whirlpool instead of a cloud of particles.
