Super Smash Bros. Brawl update: say hello to Gray Fox, and how to grab foes

It’s another Super Smash Bros. Brawl update, and it’s another dose of more fun! In this update, we learn about who could be the coolest Assist Trophy ever – Gray Fox, and Solid Snake now has no reason to feel out of place in this wacky tournament. Brawlers also get to learn another essential maneuver: grabbing and throwing.

Check out Gray Fox and how to throw your opponents in the full article!

Metal Gear Solid fans now have another good reason to grab Super Smash Bros. Brawl by Nintendo for the Wii, and this reason promises to kick ass: the ninja known as Gray Fox lends his ultra-stealthy moves to the game as an Assist Trophy, and he’s nothing to scoff at (one look at his exoskeleton suit tells why) even if he’s not a fully-playable character.

His skills as an Assist Trophy just ooze with killer finesse, slicing and dicing the opponent. As a bonus, he can also reflect projectiles, so better think twice in shooting that arrow if Gray Fox is in the game.

This update also instructs Brawlers how to grab and throw opponents. It’s fairly simple: while shielding, press the attack button to reach out and grab your opponent, then tilt the control stick to any direction where you want to hurl your hapless foe. It’s a great maneuver that makes Brawlers think twice before mindlessly charging, and adds spice to Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
