If you just look at the name Blade Gun and don't read the description you could easily be misled and think this is a sword for your robo. Well, this is actually a gun that fires sword-shaped shots in a straight row. It can fire continuously but its homing is weak. It is practically ineffective against most foes unless you really know how to use bombs and pods.
Use
The Blade Gun is useful for not keeping yourself open since it has a fast reload/recharge rate. It is best used for finishing a combo or rapid fire at close range since its homing abilities are limited. A fast moving Robo depending on charges, bombs, and pods rather than its gun as the primary method of attack should consider this weapon for follow up attacks to combinations and keeping pressure up on the opponent.
Regularly firing in spurts of 3 to 4 shots, in addition to intermittent shots, can be a good tactic.
Defense
Stay on the move. If your enemy has a good aerial attack, be sure not to aerially strafe at close range.
