Big grab attacks, any way to get out of them?
Or is it round over?

You mean the attack when the fiend grabs you and kills you?
As far as I know there is no way to escape them. You have to avoid being grabbed. I use the invisibility skill (don't know the English word right now) to get some distant between me and the fiend and take the chance to attack him. Its a tech skill and also the Infiltrator profile will make you invisible for a few seconds after dodging.
i did it once somehow. glitch i suppose. i'm not entirely sure how it happened... i was using the vanguard profile tried to do a timely dodge (though they seem to have completely changed the timing from ME3 evades), and the fiend caught sara even though it looked like she should have avoided the grab, i kept tapping jump, dodge, and the direction key away from the fiend, all at the same time. as she got slammed on the ground ryder dodged backwards and avoided the killing blow. though i've never been able to repeat it. might have been that i actually did avoid the initial grab but the sequence still played out i guess.
---edit
however, it was a "oh, hell yes that was bada**!!!!" moment. and my expectations for the game grew, untill i realized that wasn't an actual feature. as it never happened again. i was so depressed afterward.

This really sounds more like a glitch/bug :/
ok, what just happened to my post?
I don't know! That's pretty strange.
Especially because I quoted your post and my post with the quote is still there. Weird.
Did you get any message about it?
