Honestly, I think a buff to everyone’s grab range in Smash Ultimate is necessary.

It seems like a lot of characters that I play, like Roy, Shulk, Cloud, Joker, etc. have really poor grab ranges. I could be right up in someone’s face, and I still can’t get the grab.

 

Grab out of shield is now a worse option in Ultimate. 

 

This is a shame, since a lot of characters have really good throw options. But they can’t access those options due to poor grab range.

 

It’s not just my characters. A lot of my friends face the same problems. 

 

So, I think buffing everyone’s grab range would be a good move for everyone. Would make the game more fun by making one of Smash’s integral mechanics viable.

I agree, I main Samus and Rosalina and grab range is definitely the problem of my characters.

Jokes aside, I fear that buffing grabs would make shielding even less useful than it alredy is, but some characters like Roy, Piranha Plant, etc definitely need some grab buffs
