It is superfluous to talk about how triumphant MCU movies are as MCU took countless cinematic awards and gained a tremendous resonation. Understandably, They always pay attention to every aspect of a movie, even a miniature one, which could give the audience contentment. And in this post, we have collected several scenes in that characters lost their arms or hands and their impacts on the storyline, it sounds weird though, but we have reason to do so.
As mentioned, all of these scenes play a pretty pivotal role in building up the plots and illustrating characters’ traits. Ulysses Klaue has his arm cut off due to karma, while others made it (losing an arm) as a hoax to conquer the enemy. Below are ten times and reasons why they become armless.

Coulson's act of leaving his mechanical hand in Maveth after killing Ward is similar to this. He doesn't want the hand that took away a person's life to be used ever again. It's also symbolic of him leaving behind his vengeance and the sense of revenge he had for Ward for killing Rosalind Price.2. Cull Obsidian - Avengers: Infinity War
