The latest ARMS Party Crash took place this past weekend, and it saw select members of the fighting game's roster clashing for the top spot. This time it was Springtron vs Kid Cobra, and when all was said and done, it was the mechanical brawler that came out on top.
The event took place between 9am on 9th February and ended at 9am this morning, and saw dedicated ARMS devotees raising their Lab Level with plenty of new points and earning some shiny new badges to add to their growing collection. It's great to see Ninty still supporting Party Crashes, even if it isn't planning on any more major updates in the future.
Did you make time for the ARMS Party Crash this past weekend? Were you a Springtron or a Kid Cobra kind of fighter? Let us know...

No surprise there. I went with Kid Cobra the most but I did use Springtron some of the time just for the 2x points.
I used Byte & Barq.
As expected, Springtron is easier to use and a noobkiller versus Kid Cobra who is quite difficult to use to his full potential.
Most of the party crashes have been won by the more beginner friendly character and I don't see this changing anytime soon, even with the points comeback mechanic in place.
Sadly had to miss out on this one, was a total clusterf*** at work this past weekend >.<
Kid Cobras dash is crap but fun was had! Unlocked all arms now so achieved something!
To those springtron energy burst spammers, you suck, even more then ninjara dash grab spammers, learn to play the game. Took me a while to figure out a technique to smash em so alls good in the end.
Have decided Lola Pop is my main. Super Dooper!
Played for an hour or so yesterday with my daughter, good fun as always although it definitely seemed like we weren't facing as many skilled fighters as usual. Usually we win some, lose some, but this weekend we won almost every match - and no, we aren't secretly Elite ARMS fighters.
@Anti-Matter And how far did that get you? Lol, 😆
These events are fantastic as they always get me back into the game and encourage me to try fighters who aren’t my main.
I started with Kid Cobra, but found a new appreciation for Springtron. It looks like a lot of people did, it seemed like a more one sided event than I was expecting.
Played all the way up to level 30 but I didn't get a chance to fight the level 8 Hedlok unfortunately. It was still a fun event though!
I repped Cobra and had a blast. When is my main man Helix going to get a Party Crash?
@Anti-Matter Of course you did 😂
Welp, looks like my dude won! No, I don't play Springtron because he's easy. I play Springtron because I love the way he feels. His shockwave is actually really hard to master, you'd be surprised. And no, Springtron is not my main. That honor falls to my girl Lola Pop.
I sadly don't own the game, but played the full Test Punch demo. Had a blast and one day will own the game. Want to take it over to families and box each other.
Darn. I completely forgot about this Party Crash. I was too busy playing XC2 and Splatoon.
Of course because he's OP.
Using his special ability should also in charge his arms, but instead you are left helpless after his ability is used and he's still powered up.
I hope they balance things better.
Only just picked up this game today. Time to get practicing.
Had a blast in this one, but MAN is Kid Cobra weird to use. Next to Dr.Coyle, his movement is probably the most counterintuitive to how fighters normally move around. Glad I got the hang of him, but I can see why Springtron won-similar move set to Spring Man, meaning he's easier to use, and KC demands a play think pretty differently compared to most of the fighters.
Still had a blast. GG Springtrons! Also, Level 8 Hedlok was a blast-and nearly impossible if the teams aren't on point. Looking forward to seeing him at the next Party Crash
@thewoosp Springtron's definitely the easier of the two, but a shockwave spammer is an easy target if you have good timing. Nothing quite as satisfying as dashing up close and catching them with a grab right when they finish XD
@thewoosp Lola Pop is my FAVE. I have every ARM for her except for like 3 or 4.
