1-on-100 is a single-player mode in which the player attempts to defeat 100 of the Cell without being knocked out.
Overview
In 1-on-100, the player's goal is to defeat 100 of the Cell . They are computer-controlled and are capable of attacking, dodging, and grabbing , but can be defeated in one hit. The enemies are split into groups of nine or ten enemies, though only up to three may appear at a time. They will become increasingly more aggressive each set of ten. Once a group is defeated, a Fire Bomb will appear if the player has full health; otherwise, HP Juice will appear. No time limit exists in 1-on-100, though the time the player takes to win will be recorded.
The type of ARMS the Cells will use is dependent on stage, favoring the home character's default ARMS, usually being their first choice ARM. Their diversity of ARMS increases during the later groups of Cells, however. Hedlok is the final enemy players must defeat before clearing 1-on-100. It takes the form of one of the Cell, but has six ARMS and has a health bar. Hedlok will always be equipped with the first choice ARM of the stage's home character in both hands.
Each fighter can only play 1-on-100 on their own themed arena initially. However, once an arena is cleared (all 100 members of the Cell defeated), then the fighter that cleared it can play on other arenas that have also been cleared.
Quotes
SPOILER ALERT! Don't read if you don't want to be spoiled.
Each map has a set of quotes from various persons after the mode ends. The displayed quote changes based on whether the player lost after a specific number of The Cell are defeated, or if all 100 enemies were beaten and the mode was won.
Spring Stadium
Level 1: "And the crowd goes WILD! Is it just me, or do those 'boings' sound like 'boos'?"
Level 2: "Ah, this reminds me of that ol' sports adage--long arms'll only get you so far!"
Level 3: "What you need is a spring in your step! Or possibly just more practice."
Level 4: "Start practicin' that autograph, 'cause we got a star on the rise!"
Level 5: "Halfway there! Next time, I'd try twice as hard!"
Level 6: "That's what I'd call an A-MAZ-ING performance... if it was only slightly better!"
Level 7: "What a nail-biter! Someone call the salon--'cause the whole stadium needs a manicure!"
Level 8: "Ladies and gents, I'm on the edge of my seat. Let's hope my vertigo doesn't kick in!"
Level 9: "That performance had me seeing stars! I gotta stop holding my breath when things get tense..."
Level 10: "You’re so close, I can taste it! Mmm... springy!"
Pre-Hedlok: "You flew too close to the sun, my friend. Too close..."
Hedlok: "What a win! Don't forget to give a wide berth when signing autographs!"
Win: "An epic win! Can you believe it? What am I gonna scream about now?!"
Ribbon Ring
Level 1: "So, uh... you know this isn't the rehearsal, right?"
Level 2: "Good luck selling tickets after THAT performance!"
Level 3: "You know how they say 'the show must go on'? That only happens if you actually, like, show up."
Level 4: "So, when I said 'break a leg' I meant that LITERALLY."
Level 5: "Nice! Looks like you finally found your rhythm."
Level 6: "You had your opponent dancing that time! It woulda been the perfect time to drop that beat."
Level 7: "Those harmonies are really coming together!"
Level 8: "Merch sales are through the roof! Speaking of, that's where you should have thrown the other guy."
Level 9: "I love the energy. We just need a little more of it!"
Level 10: "Another showstopper! Of course, in this case that might not be a good thing."
Pre-Hedlok: "That was NUTS! I hope next time we get a special appearance from someone less icky."
Hedlok: "What a show! I'll start booking those tour dates now!"
Win: "Standing ovation?! You've reached megastar status."
Ninja College
Level 1: "Total fail-time to hit the books! (Like, actually start punching them.)"
Level 2: "I'd give that performance a U for 'underwhelming.'"
Level 3: "Just 30 points? Perhaps you've chosen the wrong profession..."
Level 4: "I may only have three degrees in mathematics, but even I know that's not enough points."
Level 5: "Someone's clearly been studying..."
Level 6: "Hmm... The statistical probability of an eventual win has increased exponentially."
Level 7: "I have a theory you might just be good at this!"
Level 8: "Soon you'll be at the top of the class! Better start writing that valedictory speech."
Level 9: "Well done! Keep this up and one day I might make you my TA."
Level 10: "Don’t give up yet! Even geniuses get stumped sometimes."
Pre-Hedlok: "My, my! No one said that guy would be on the final exam!"
Hedlok: "Unbelievable! Talent like yours simply can't be taught."
Win: "If I were to write a dissertation on that fight, I'd call it 'The Practical Physics of an Epic Butt-Kicking.'"
Mausoleum
Level 1: "On the bright side, you're giving me a chance to practice my resurrection spells. Eeheheheee!"
Level 2: "Getting dragged to the underworld doesn't seem so bad now, does it?!"
Level 3: "Perhaps you're cursed. Is there any other explanation for this?"
Level 4: "Ah! A sign that the stars are starting to align. Just give them a few more hours or so."
Level 5: "It appears my magic is starting to work... Eeehehehe!"
Level 6: "The reaper comes for us all...but you can always punch him in the face."
Level 7: "A powerful magic surrounds you! Oh, that's just sweat."
Level 8: "I'm quite impressed that you made it this far. You didn't sneak a sip out of my cauldron, did you?"
Level 9: "So close! I wish they made a wart cream as powerful as you."
Level 10: "You know what you’re missing? Eye of newt. It always adds an extra punch to my spells!"
Pre-Hedlok: "I went on a blind date with that guy. Unfortunately, it didn't work out."
Hedlok: "That was a thrill! I feel like I'm 147 again!"
Win: "Speed, strength, skills! We could use someone like you in the magical profession."
Ramen Bowl
Level 1: "I thought you were hungry. There's no such thing as a free lunch, kid!"
Level 2: "Stop noodlin' around out there! Bored customers aren't hungry customers!"
Level 3: Way to give it your all out there. Have some tap water on the house!"
Level 4: "Reaching this milestone calls for a celebration. I'm buying!"
Level 5: "Bellies start grumbling after a fight like that. You're gonna be great for business!"
Level 6: "Now we're cooking! Those noodle arms are starting to look beefy."
Level 7: "Grab a spoon, everybody! Soup's on!"
Level 8: "The crowd is chomping at their bites! Keep this up, and you'll eat free for a month- Er, a week."
Level 9: "Now's not the time to give up. Now's the time for the oven mitts to come off!"
Level 10: "Ouch! You hit those guys like a bad case of indigestion."
Pre-Hedlok: "Sweet! Now you're turning up the heat!"
Hedlok: "We did it! You got your hundred points and I got hundreds of customers!"
Win: "I'm bowled over! Hey- you looking for a corporate sponsor?"
Scrapyard
Level 1: "Given that display, it makes sense that you'd end up here."
Level 2: "These engines don't work 'cause they're rusted over. What's yer excuse?"
Level 3: "You remind me of a hammer without a head. So, basically, a useless stick."
Level 4: "Huh. Looks like yer startin' to salvage yer performance."
Level 5: "Congratulations! You've just been upgraded from junk to recyclable material."
Level 6: "Not bad, not bad. If we swapped out a few of yer parts, you'd be doin' even better!"
Level 7: "That was crazy! If this ARMS thing doesn't work out, wanna be our night security guard? I'm sick of those dogs."
Level 8: "Who needs a wrecking crew when we got you doin' so much damage?!"
Level 9: "Dang, yer crushin' it! Mind takin' care of a few of these cars while yer at it?"
Level 10: "Ahh... The only thing better than the sound of destruction is the sight of it!"
Pre-Hedlok: "If you ever end up beating that guy, I got dibs on whatever's leftover, 'K?"
Hedlok: "You flattened all 100?! I've never seen anything more beautiful in my life..."
Win: "You totally totaled those guys! Guess I'll be takin' it from here."
Cinema Deux
Level 1: "Can you explain to me how you managed to get cast?"
Level 2: "Maybe we should just cut this scene entirely..."
Level 3: "Yeah, we're gonna need another take."
Level 4: "OK, let's do that again. But this time try to hit your mark... and your opponent!"
Level 5: "Now we're rolling! Just remember to stay in character."
Level 6: "Hey, watch the car! That bad boy cost me three weekend blockbusters!"
Level 7: "I said 'Action!' and this time you delivered!"
Level 8: "Whoa! Have you ever considered being a stunt double? That was seamless!"
Level 9: "Keep fighting like that and you'll have a role in my next picture!"
Level 10: "That was brutal! But I think the viewers are going to appreciate the realism of your performance."
Pre-Hedlok: "Interesting... I wasn't expecting a twist ending."
Hedlok: "And scene! Now that's what I call action."
Win: "That's a wrap! Another hit in the can!"
Buster Beach
Level 1: "Ooh, that was tough to watch. But it's all good, man. It's all good."
Level 2: "When things aren't going so great, just look out at the ocean. You'll be like, 'Dude! I'm so small!'"
Level 3: "I like your style, dude. Minimal effort, minimal results."
Level 4: "There's something about your vibe that's starting to change. Interesting..."
Level 5: "Be cool, pal. Some people are here just to relax and soak up some rays."
Level 6: "Yo! That was gnarly. It reminds me of this taco I once had. So good!"
Level 7: "Whoa. Did you see that wave? It was huge! What? Did I miss something?"
Level 8: "Brah! And I thought a sunburn hurt."
Level 9: "That was some kraken-level awesomeness, man."
Level 10: "Oh, man. And I thought 20-footers were intense!"
Pre-Hedlok: "No shoes. No shirt. But that guy's got a big problem..."
Hedlok: "Now that that's over, you down for some beach volleyball?"
Win: "After that, you totally deserve a vacation."
Snake Park
Level 1: "Bro. That was some amateur ARMS'ing back there."
Level 2: "Is a hundred dudes really that hard? I thought you were a pro."
Level 3: "I'd much rather be watching this on my TV. At least then I could turn it off!"
Level 4: "Not bad... but I bet those ARMS would look way better on me."
Level 5: "Way anticlimactic, man. That's right. I got a dictionary."
Level 6: "Whoa. Has anyone ever told you your ARMS look WAY longer in person?!"
Level 7: "DUUUUUDE! Awesome!"
Level 8: "Yo, those ARMS are LEGIT!"
Level 9: "Aw, man! And you were THIS close to legendary status."
Level 10: "C'mon, you can do this! I believe in you or...whatever."
Pre-Hedlok: "Dude. I cannot unsee what I have just seen."
Hedlok: "You did it—100! Can I, like, shake your hand? On second thought, maybe that's a bad idea."
Win: "You took them down like they were nothing! I bow down to you, dude. Teach me your ways!"
DNA Lab
Level 1: "WAS THIS YOUR FIRST FIGHT? OURS TOO!"
Level 2: "VICTORY! YOU CANNOT DEFEAT THE MANY THAT ARE ONE."
Level 3: "WE DIDN'T BREAK A SWEAT. HUH. DO WE SWEAT?"
Level 4: "THE CELL HAS BEEN THREATENED. WHY WOULD YOU THREATEN US?"
Level 5: "YOU DESTROYED HALF OF US... NOW WE'RE ANGRY!"
Level 6: "WE ARE SORRY FOR YOU. YOU MUST BE SO LONELY..."
Level 7: "BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME. HEHE! GET IT? IT'S SARCASM."
Level 8: "OUCH! YOU'RE MAKING IT VERY HARD FOR US TO LIKE YOU, YOU KNOW."
Level 9: "GIVE UP NOW! YOU'LL NEVER WIN! SERIOUSLY. HAVE YOU COUNTED US?"
Level 10: "THAT WAS TOO CLOSE! WE'D BE SWEATING RIGHT NOW IF IT WAS PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE."
Pre-Hedlok: "YOU MADE US USE OUR SECRET WEAPON. GUESS IT'S NOT SO SECRET ANYMORE..."
Hedlok: "WE...LOST?! WE DON'T UNDERSTAND. THE CELL IS SO DISAPPOINTED."
Win: "WE LOST?! BUT WE ARE THE CELL! THE CALL CANNOT LOSE!"
Sky Arena
Level 1: "OK, OK! Nice work out there, pal! But next time, uh...do better."
Level 2: "What's going on?! You scared of heights or somethin'? Then don't look down!"
Level 3: "You need to stay focused, bud. If the sun's gettin' in your eyes, just close 'em!"
Level 4: "Sure you got the right ARMS for the job? Maybe try using that one that does the thing with the thing, you know?"
Level 5: "We're finally gettin' somewhere! All you gotta do now is punch, punch, punch, punch, punch!"
Level 6: "Rest equals recovery, but practice makes perfect. You can multitask, right?"
Level 7: "That's right—dig deep! Keep digging! Dig hard!"
Level 8: "Keep your ARMS up! No, not those arms—THOSE ARMS!"
Level 9: "Almost there! Just do that all over again and then do a little bit more."
Level 10: "Now you got 'em on the ropes! Knock those goobers outta the ring!"
Pre-Hedlok: "Victory's so close, it's starin' you right in the face, kid!"
Hedlok: "You did it, kid! You fought your way to the top! I can't wait to see you do that again...but faster."
Win: "That was...inspiring. Excuse me, I just— Something's caught in my eye... Allergies, am I right?"
Via Dolce
Level 1: "That was tough to watch. I've had hard candy that was easier to stomach."
Level 2: "Next time we're gonna need a little less marshmallow and a little more jawbreaker."
Level 3: "That was a cakewalk...for the other guys."
Level 4: "You were doing pretty well out there... until you crumbled like a cookie!"
Level 5: "That was like watching someone bake a five-layer cake...and then forget the frosting."
Level 6: "Ooh, what a bittersweet ending! Well, mainly bitter."
Level 7: "I don't know if you've been fudgin' the numbers, but you're not so bad at this."
Level 8: "Oh yeah! I'll take three scoops of THAT!"
Level 9: "What a fight! Keep makin' gumdrops outta those jelly fiends!"
Level 10: "You could melt more than a chocolate bar with that kind of heat!"
Pre-Hedlok: "Way to smother the competition like a warm jar of maple syrup!"
Hedlok: "I like how you work—reel 'em in with the sweet and then knock 'em out with the sour!"
Win: "That was sweet enough to give everyone in this stadium a toothache. Dentists everywhere, rejoice!"
Temple Grounds
Level 1: "The Misanga is not impressed. At all."
Level 2: "If you were trying to put the Misanga to sleep... good job! Who knew ancient powers COULD sleep?!"
Level 3: "You let down the Misanga. That's the equivalent of disappointing 100 parents at once!"
Level 4: "The Misanga wonders if maybe it should take over from here..."
Level 5: "Even your fellow Misangans know you can do better than that."
Level 6: "If you have faith in the Misanga, the Misanga will have faith in you!"
Level 7: "You don't want to let down other Misangans, do you? Whatever it is you're doing right...keep doing it!"
Level 8: "The Misanga is rooting for you! Not only as a spiritual entity, but as a friend."
Level 9: "No matter what, the Misanga will be there for you. But it would much rather be there for a winner."
Level 10: "You have the Misanga's full attention now."
Pre-Hedlok: "What does the Misanga always say? "Pull it together, and win this thing!"
Hedlok: "You've made the Misanga proud. That's the equivalent of making 100 parents proud at once!"
Win: "If the Misanga could high-five you right now, it totally would."
Sparring Ring
Level 1: "Zzz... Huh?! Sorry, dozed off there."
Level 2: "Not much worth researching here."
Level 3: "Done already?! I hadn't even started recording!"
Level 4: "Filming that fight was barely worth the electricity..."
Level 5: "This fighter's tenacity merits further research!"
Level 6: "These techniques have piqued my academic interest!"
Level 7: "What an intelligent fight-my brain is abuzz!"
Level 8: "I get to watch ARMS all day and call it "research"!"
Level 9: "The tape of this fight will be required viewing at the labs!"
Level 10: "Perhaps we'll feature this fighter in the next Party Crash..."
Pre-Hedlok: "Hedlok is intact?! Phew-those things are EXPENSIVE!"
Hedlok: "We're gonna need a new Hedlok... and some grant money."
Win: "You're invited to ARMS Labs for an exp—! Er...physical."
[NAME REDACTED]
Level 1: "Ooo, not your best performance. You should pick up a set of ARMS Labs branded dumbbells!"
Level 2: "You know... an ARMS Labs special edition girdle would really do wonders for you."
Level 3: "Now that was a beating! Had you been wearing an ARMS Labs punch-proof vest, you'd be a lot less sore tomorrow."
Level 4: "You call that endurance?! You've clearly never used an ARMS Labs treadmill!"
Level 5: "Hey, are you blind or something?! Guess what! You don't need a prescription for ARMS Labs glasses."
Level 6: "ARMS Laboratories just got into the shoe business. Just something to consider..."
Level 7: "A tough fight equals stiff muscles! The only cure? An ARMS Labs massager!"
Level 8: "Not bad... The new ARMS Labs 'zine would love to do a profile piece on you."
Level 9: "Need an energy drink?! Agree to be our spokesperson, and you'll have free ARMS Labs beverages for life!"
Level 10: "You're so close! Try using this foot powder made from ground-up ancient relics. It's our latest prototype!"
Pre-Hedlok: "Wanna try using Hedlok? He's an ARMS Labs product too!"
Hedlok: "That was amazing! How do you feel about corporate sponsorship?"
Win: "Consider my mind blown! I hope you make it to our next Party Crash event..."
