The Big 10 #11 - Gasouvay (Lola Pop)

One of the things we are most proud of at the APC are the little side communities that have developed around ARMS, and one of the most surprisingly active communities is our fanart Discord channel.

Now, most of you will likely know Gasouvay (Twitter: @Gasouvay) from his appearances in tournaments, crew battles and infamously on the JP ranking list. But what you may not know is that Gasouvay is actually one of the cornerstones of the APC fanart Discord and has been making a name for himself with his cool & quirky illustrations (one of which you can see above).

We were really pleased to be able to get hold of Gasouvay for this week's TB10 which you can find after the page break!

New Mechanica artwork from ARMS Cobutter!

Earlier this morning ARMS_Cobutter uploaded this seasonal illustration of Mechanica making the most of a relaxing Autumn day, I wonder what will come of her diligent studying?

APC Open Lobby Highlights #1: 05/09/17

Until video recording functionality is available on the Switch it's a little hard to find footage of high-level ARMS matches outside of tournaments. In an effort to help satisfy the cravings of those of you looking for these types of matches, we at the APC have decided to run a recorded open lobby every Tuesday at 6-7pm UK time. PS make sure to watch the VODs afterwards as you never know who may show up!

You can find a sample match and a link to this week's open lobby playlist below:
