Max Brass

Max Brass is a playable character in ARMS. He is an ARMS veteran and the greatest champion ever to compete in the Grand Prix. Max Brass is also the head of the ARMS League (hence his nickname, 'The Commish') and the organizer for the Grand Prix.

Appearance
Max Brass has a large, muscular build. His ARMS are made of championship belts that he has won over the years, and he also boasts a championship belt around his waist. He wears a tight blue and gold bodysuit, a golden mask, armor with brass fist ornaments, and red and gold boots. His arms are made up of brass belts.

Abilities
Upon fully charging his punches or successfully performing a throw, Max Brass can temporarily increase the size of his upper body, during which his punches will be permanently charged and he will resist being knocked down when punched as if he were a heavyweight. (Unlike other heavyweight characters, Max Brass only needs to be moving in order to gain the damage reduction effect normally granted to heavies while they are dashing, jumping, or attacking.) This effect lasts five seconds or until Max Brass is knocked down. Below 25% health, Max Brass will always be "pumped up."

He also shares Spring Man's ability to deflect incoming punches and his ability to maintain a constant charge while below 25% health.
