A '''Swinging Claw''' is an object in ''[[Super Mario Maker 2]]'' that can grab enemies and items. When [[Mario]] approaches one, it drops whatever object it is holding. Swinging Claws can be placed on [[Track (object)|tracks]], and they can even be used to swing Mario. If the player is in a Swinging Claw's grasp, they can move left and right to build momentum before jumping out of it to gain more distance. In the ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' and ''[[Super Mario World]]'' styles, they are depicted as generic claws, while in the ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]'' and ''[[New Super Mario Bros. U]]'' styles, they are depicted as sentient claws with a face. In the ''Super Mario Bros. 3'' style, the Swinging Claw frowns when holding an object, although in the ''New Super Mario Bros. U'' style, it smiles. It frowns more when holding a bigger object in both styles. The player can also press {{button|ns|A}} or {{button|ns|B}} while pressing {{button|ns|down}} to drop out of the claw.

A Swinging Claw is an object in Super Mario Maker 2 that can grab enemies and items. When Mario approaches one, it drops whatever object it is holding. Swinging Claws can be placed on tracks, and they can even be used to swing Mario. If the player is in a Swinging Claw's grasp, they can move left and right to build momentum before jumping out of it to gain more distance. In the Super Mario Bros. and Super Mario World styles, they are depicted as generic claws with a light that turns on when the claw is holding an object. However, in the Super Mario Bros. 3 and New Super Mario Bros. U styles, they are depicted as sentient claws with a face. In the Super Mario Bros. 3 style, the Swinging Claw frowns when holding an object, although in the New Super Mario Bros. U style, it smiles. It frowns more when holding a bigger object in both styles. The player can also press A Button or B Button while pressing Down Button to drop out of the claw.
