The Control fruit has finally received a long-awaited rework in Blox Fruits, and it completely changes how the fruit feels in real gameplay. From smoother combos to new mechanics that reward precision and creativity, this update turns Control into a much more interactive and satisfying option for both PvP and PvE players. Below is a full breakdown of how the reworked Control fruit works, based on hands-on gameplay.
Blox Fruits Control Fruit Guide
M1 Attacks – More Than Just Basic Hits
The new M1 attacks immediately stand out. Instead of feeling weak or repetitive, they now play a real role in combat flow. In hands mode, holding M1 creates a much larger block, which can dominate space but also partially blocks your screen. This adds a risk-versus-reward element, especially in PvP, where positioning and visibility matter. The ability to cut objects by swiping your mouse while clicking also makes the M1 feel dynamic rather than spammy.
Z Move – Reliable Stun Utility
The Z move now applies a noticeable stun effect, making it a solid combo starter. While it does not deal overwhelming damage on its own, its true value lies in control and setup. You can easily follow it up with X, C, or even an F move to extend combos. This makes the Z move far more useful than before, especially for players who enjoy chaining abilities rather than relying on raw damage.
X Move – Core Damage and Combo Piece
The X move feels like one of the backbone abilities of the rework. It works smoothly in both blade mode and hands mode, fitting naturally into combos. In hands mode, it feels more impactful due to the object manipulation visuals, while blade mode gives it a cleaner, faster feel. Either way, it connects well after stuns and pulls.
C Move – Pull and Control
The C move now pulls enemies toward you, which is huge for Control’s identity. This move helps prevent enemies from escaping your room and allows you to dictate the fight’s pace. In PvE, it groups enemies efficiently, and in PvP, it punishes poor movement and positioning. It synergizes extremely well with the Z move stun and X move damage.
F Move – Mobility With Combo Potential
The F move is not just mobility anymore. It can be used to create mini-combos, reposition quickly, or surprise opponents. While it looks similar in both blade and hands modes, its real strength is how fluidly it connects with other moves. Skilled players can use it offensively rather than just as an escape tool.
V Move – Heavy Impact Finisher
The V move remains consistent across modes and serves as a strong finisher. While it may look familiar, it feels smoother and more reliable in the rework. When used after a pull or stun, it delivers satisfying damage and visual impact, making it ideal for ending combos.
Blade Mode vs Hands Mode
One of the biggest highlights of the rework is the ability to switch between blade mode and hands mode.
Blade Mode
This mode feels faster and cleaner, focusing more on direct combat and ability flow. It is ideal for players who prefer consistency and speed.
Hands Mode
Hands mode emphasizes object manipulation. You can select which blocks to pick up, throw multiple objects at once, and even cut entire buildings. This mode feels more chaotic but incredibly satisfying. The trade-off is visual clutter, as large objects can block your view during fights.
Environmental Interaction – A True Control Fantasy
The ability to cut and throw environmental objects, including entire structures, makes Control feel like a true area-dominating fruit. You can slice buildings apart, throw multiple blocks simultaneously, and overwhelm enemies visually and mechanically. While the throwing can feel slightly glitchy at times, especially with multiple Control users nearby, the concept itself is extremely fun and unique.
The Control rework is a massive improvement over the old version. It rewards skill, creativity, and positioning rather than simple button mashing. With strong crowd control, flexible combo routes, and satisfying environmental interaction, Control now feels like a high-skill fruit with real depth. It may not be the easiest fruit to master, but for players who enjoy technical gameplay, this rework is absolutely worth learning.
