A hitbox arc is the development history of a character's or game's collision detection across updates and patches — the story of how egregious it was at launch, what the community discovered, how devs responded (or didn't), and where things ended up. Games with infamous hitbox arcs get referenced in patch note threads for years. The term captures the communal narrative around broken or weirdly generous collision zones: the initial discovery posts, the viral clips, the dev statements, the nerf, the lingering distrust. Every long-running competitive game has at least one move with a legendary hitbox arc.
The grab's hitbox arc is honestly a whole saga — busted at launch, barely touched for two years, then suddenly obliterated in one patch.
