Grab

This page is a stub and needs more information. Please help ARMS Institute by expanding it.

A grab is a special move that can be performed by punching with both ARMS at once ( and at the same time when using traditional controls.) Grabs take longer than standard attacks, but if done successfully, prevent their target from moving. They also do much more damage than standard attacks. When a fighter grabs, both of their arms are locked together by a green beam. If they successfully hit their target, the grab animation starts. In 3 or 4 player modes, you can stop a grab by attacking the person who is grabbing. Grabs cannot be blocked by shielding, but they can be blocked if their target punches with one ARM just before being hit.
