"Welcome to the Snake Park, where the 'speed demon,' Kid Cobra runs the show! He's a top snakeboard rider, an extreme sport that involves landing tricks on a spinning board. His signature quick step allows him to strike at his prey as fast as a snake!"
—Biff

Kid Cobra is a playable fighter in ARMS. He is a professional snakeboarder and live streamer.

Appearance

Kid Cobra's extendable ARMS have a scaly, snake-like appearance. His eyes are heterochromatic, with one being green, and the other purple. He wears a helmet shaped like the head and hood of a cobra, his skin-tight shirt looks scaly, and his baggy pants bear a design made up of many stylized snakes. The treads of his sneakers also look like snakeskin.

Backstory

"A top snakeboarder turned ARMS fighter, this kid lives for the streets! All that boarding has really strengthened his legs, giving him a super-quick dash after charging up. He entered the Grand Prix to get more hits on his snakeboarding vids, but his natural instincts might just carry him all the way to the top!"
Official description


Kid Cobra is one of the few people who had his extendable ARMS since birth, occurring in only 1 in 100,000 people. Due to the fact that he always wears a mask and his race hasn't been confirmed yet, it makes Kid Cobra an interesting surveying target.[1]

Abilities

Kid Cobra has one of the slowest dashes when uncharged but his jump is the highest. When dashing towards an opponent on the ground while charged, Kid Cobra will duck under all incoming attacks. In addition, all dashes, midair or grounded, are quicker and provide more distance and more dashes can be used the longer he's been charged. When attacking during a charged dash, all ARMS that change attack pattern will attack is if they were in midair (i.e. Scorpio and Funchuk)
