A '''shield grab''' is the act of [[grab]]bing while [[shield]]ing. Generally it is used to [[punish]] attacks when they are blocked - in most cases the attacker will be caught in the lag of their attack, which means the defender's grab can often connect with little trouble. Using a shield grab allows a character to circumvent the slight delay that usually occurs after dropping the shield, so unless the character has a good [[out of shield]] option a shield grab is usually the best response.
