Disgaea: Hour of Darkness[]
- "Brawlers rely primarily on their fists as weapons. Normal attacks have a high hit percentage and slightly higher Chance of Team Attack than other weapons. The Special Techniques learned with fists are short-range and have a small area of effect. But, many will allow you to knock enemies into different positions."
- —Longinus
In this game their damage depends only on the ATK stat, and they also increase the user's HIT. While they don't increase the Counter stat, their users tend to have a good Counter value already.

Disgaea 2: Cursed Memories[]
- "Fist weapons are best for characters that are good at close combat, like Adell. For normal attacks, there's a slightly better chance to team attack, and there's two extra counter attacks. Another characteristic of the fist weapon is that damage depends on attack power (ATK) and speed (SPD). This means that even weak people can cover up for their attack power with speed. That's an important merit. Even if you increase attack power, if your speed is low, you won't do as much damage, so watch out for that. Skills that you can learn with fist weapon mastery include those that can move the opponent's position, so remember that. Adell, you're good with the fist weapon. It is most effective to train with the weapon you're best at."

Disgaea 5: Alliance of Vengeance[]
- "Fists are good weapons for characters who are good at close combat. Fist weapons increase your ability to counter attacks, and are generally great for close combat. Their normal attacks are based on ATK and SPD. This means that weak units can compensate for a low ATK with a high SPD. It's a very important factor. Keep in mind that even if you have a high ATK, if your SPD is low, you won't be doing much damage. Also remember that Fist Weapon Skills often move the target around."
