== Appearance ==
== Appearance ==
Max Brass has a large, muscular build. His [[ARMS (extendable)|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.  
Max Brass has a large, muscular build. His [[ARMS (extendable)|ARMS]] are made of belts, in reference to his long-standing championship, and he also boasts a championship belt around his waist, as well as on both of his shoulders. He wears a tight blue and gold bodysuit, a golden mask with a model of a fist atop it, armor with brass fist ornaments, and red and gold boots. His eyes appear to be completely white, though whether this is how his eyes naturally are or a result of the mask is unknown.

== 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. Because his ARMS are constantly charged during his buffed up state, his armor is constantly active unlike other heavyweights. This effect lasts five seconds or until Max Brass is knocked down. Below 25% health, Max Brass will always be "pumped up."
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; resisted punches will have their damage reduced by 50%. While pumped up, his super armor is constantly active unlike other heavyweights. While in the pumping up animation, he will parry incoming attacks. This effect lasts five seconds or until Max Brass is knocked down.
 
He also shares [[Spring Man]]'s ability to deflect incoming punches when releasing incomplete charges. When his health reaches below 25%, Max Brass will automatically be "pumped up", providing him with permanently charged ARMS and super armor. He will automatically perform the pumped up animation once his HP drops below 25% and will perform it every time he recovers from being knocked down.
 
== Playstyles ==
 
Max Brass is the most overbearing character especially buffed up, with super armour, massive ARM girth, high grab damage, long charged time and a deflect ring. Brass is perhaps the best in the game at turning neutral situations to his advantage, and keeping it that way, with his suffocating wakeup pressure.
 
Once he's able to get buffed, his comeback ability is unparalleled as it brings together many of the best tools to pressure up close, or poke at range, in addition to gaining extra mobility.
 
===ARM Recommendations===


He also shares [[Spring Man]]'s ability to deflect incoming punches and his ability to maintain a constant charge while below 25% health.
Max Brass works well with most ARMS, especially ARMS that are good up close and can cause knockdowns. From there he can pressure his opponent better than anyone in this game, stuffing out counterattacks, while being mobile enough to track movement and hit with insane damage. Some examples are:
