Iron Fist is too weak a hero.

[Ximiral]

I've played about 100 games on iron fist, and I want to say that the hero is like too weak. In the beginning he dominated, but when the rank is above platinum then the enemy team is no longer divided and stands together. Kill enemy DPS becomes an impossible task, the amount of treatment that impose on the enemy is too huge, and characters like Luna Snow or Mantis, which is worth 1 time accidentally hit you stanom and all you are dead. Characters like Hela or Hawkeye who kill you with 1-2 hits close to you. Since the view is from 3-person, you can aim at the hitbox character, but to the right and the shot will still hit the target, when you get close to Hela, she just spam you with 2 attacks and you're dead.

This applies to characters who use melee, their task is to quickly kill the target and run away, but it is simply impossible to do because of the amount of heal.

You need to engage and jump out or run on the walls. Pick your engage points where there's more terrain to run and jump on to in short movements. Do not try to force a kill just poke and disrupt them for your team to finish the job.

Hes pretty middle of the pack.

For how much BS his kit has going for it- This is exactly where he should be.

That's how ranked works. The higher you go the less effective some characters are. Welcome to competitive hero shooters.

He's fine imo. He's a noobstomper who you can kinda make work if you devote enough time and skill to him in high ranks. Imo its healthy to have a character or two like him in the game. For those who are familiar with SF, he's like SF6 E. Honda lol

There are characters with problems that really need buffs (Storm and Cap imo) but I wouldnt say he's really on that list.

TBH its not just Iron fist, most of the Melee focused heros are under powered compared to the hitscan heros... and hawkeye

the higher you go the harder it is to get value out of them, as people just delete you as soon as you pop out of cover (especially with all the cheating hawkeyes hellas and winter soldiers out there)
