Combroid-Riot are a type of enemy in Mighty No. 9. They appear in the City, Oil Platform, Mine, Military Base, and Radio Tower stages.
Description[]
Combroid-Riot usually stand idle (though can occasionally be seen walking) until they spot that the player is close to them. They are protected from the front by their shields, however they are vulnerable from behind. If they detect the player, they will occasionally rotate their torso and fire at the player, then rotate their shield back. Also, if the player attacks their shield, they will rotate and fire.
On Mighty Gunvolt Burst, Combroid-Riot shoots sporadically instead of shooting after being attacked.

A different model of the Combroid known as Combroid-SS appears in the Capitol Building.
Unlike Riot models, SS will shoot two shots simultaneously, one straight forward and the other at an angle. Destabilizing an SS model for the first time only allows their shield to be absorbed. They must be destabilized again to absorb them completely.

Combroid-Gorillas are a third model of the Combroid that are found in the Power Plant, Radio Tower and the Robot Factory.
Unlike the other two Combroid models, Combroid-Gorillas resemble primates and lack a shield. They are usually found hanging from hoops, and will shoot multiple shots directly at the player. When destabilized, they will only shoot one shot at a time.
Development[]
The original Humanoid Robot designs were similar to the final Combroid design, but also very different. Early designs had a police officer theme, with the robots holding their guns and shields in two separate hands. When presented to Keiji Inafune, he sketched his own take and gave feedback. His feedback included suggestions such as making it less human like and that the shield should be attached to the robot's back, so that the robot rotated it's torso to shield itself.
The team took the ideas to Inti Creates, who helped them create the final design.
