When working on my current project, I noticed how it seems like CPUs in Smash Ultimate are really bad at dealing with Arm Rotor, so I went to test it more thoroughly. And sure enough, it turns out Arm Rotor spam is an easy win button against level 9 CPUs. For whatever reason, they often just run, land, or roll into it, and if they don't get hit by it, they often fail to punish a move which has 41 frames of ending lag, 85 total frames of duration at minimum (and much longer if held), and is a whopping negative 37 frames on shield. Even if they shield Arm Rotor initially, they nearly always drop their shield too soon, getting hit in a situation where they should have gotten a strong OoS punish. There are three matches in this video, to show off that this exploit works against a variety of CPUs and not just against a specific character's AI, while the matches are one stock each so this video doesn't drag on too long.
