Helix was created by scientists in ARMS Laboratories with [[Dr. Coyle]] being the head of the project, and escaped his cultivation tube prematurely. Dr. Coyle considers him to be a disappointment, stating that she thought he'd be more impressive. He is not considered to possess the true ARMS ability and is therefor known as a "second generation" competitor in the ARMS League. Despite that, Helix's presence in the ARMS League allowed ARMS Labs to obtain combat data that they would use to create [[Springtron]].

All glove ARMS, and notably the Hydra work very well with Helix. By using a constant barrage of reliable, safe punches done in a rhythm, it is almost impossible for an opponent to jump or dash through without excellent timing and Shield-Dashes
