Dr. Coyle

She once ate several large kidney stones and radioactive green diarrhea. When she regurgitated them several times Creating helix. Dr. Coyle is a playable fighter and the secondary antagonist in ARMS. She was released in Version 5.0.0 on December 22nd, 2017.

Appearance
Dr. Coyle is a scientist wearing a large metallic suit, with her design being electricity-based. Her ARMS are made of copper with coils rotating around them, referencing the concept of electromagnetic induction. She has green eyes, green hair which covers her right eye, yellow eyebrows and eyelashes, purple lipstick, and a purple mask. Her outfit consists of a black and green suit with a green top with her logo on it, a black high collar, a zipper and a belt, and grey tights, as well as matching black and green stiletto boots with green soles, and black fingerless gloves with studs and her logo on them, as well as green painted nails. Other outfits include a turtle neck shirt with a skeleton pin near the top along with a lab coat and glasses, and a dress-like lab coat with a black pantyhose and green high heels with black soles.

Backstory
Dr. Coyle is the director of ARMS Labs and is known as a "once-in-a-generation genius". She is the youngest to rise to the top of ARMS Labs. There are rumors saying that she has 52 doctorates and the inability to taste food, although the latter is unlikely given the fact that she participated in taste-testing and recipe development in a cafe run by ARMS Labs.

She seems to have history with Max Brass, apparently knowing him on a personal level, although she now holds a grudge against him and seeks revenge for "things he said" to her. Dr. Coyle later overpowered Max Brass in the Grand Prix so that she could take on the challenger instead. Dr. Coyle is credited as being the creator of Helix, Springtron and Hedlok (which she referred to as her "masterpiece"), as well as seemingly being responsible for Master Mummy's reanimation.

Abilities
Uniquely, Dr. Coyle does not have a jump. Instead, she levitates at all times and is able to increase her height with the jump button. This permits her to dash and guard at any height. She will be registered as being on the "ground" at any altitude; because of this, some weapons such as the Scorpio or Funchuk will always move out in the mode/form they are in when launched on the ground. In addition, she can briefly activate an additional ARM by charging for a long period of time. The ARM appears on a random shoulder of Dr. Coyle and matches the ARM immediately below it. Furthermore, she can temporarily disappear while moving freely, an ability activated by holding guard or getting up after being knocked down.

Playstyle
Her ability to fly and shield at anytime, as well as having invisibility and reduced vulnerability when getting up, make Dr. Coyle difficult to pin down. Her extra arm also gives her powerful poking and rush-building capabilities.

Dr. Coyle's playstyle centers around using her third arm to harass at range until she gains an advantage. She can then use her inherent height advantage and smooth movement to smother opponents with pressure, while avoiding being cornered herself.

ARM Recommendations
Reliable ARMS that create strong pressure without sacrificing Dr. Coyle's mobility work well with her. They complement her two biggest strengths, which are her flight and her third ARM. Some examples are:

 * Dr. Coyle's information on her official profile is encoded, likely to tie into her theme as a mysterious, suspicious scientist.

 * She is likely the one holding the photo of Springtron in his Grand Prix ending photo as her nails have the same pattern as her grab attack.
 * She can, in many respects, be seen as the opposite to Mechanica.
