I know the game just came out but any tips on how to defend against Iron Fist?

[Runz With TurtleZ]

Whenever I play a healer, I always, ALWAYS get targeted by the opposing team's Iron Fist if there is one and I for the life of me cannot get away from him. Keep in mind that I don't really play healers in Overwatch and other hero shooters but I kinda like them in this game. So, how should I go about defending against him?

You can't.
He needs multiple people to focus him or you just die.

He can 1v1 every character in the game.

He's absolutely busted and his stupid homing attack on left click will home into you even after you use dash with Rocket.

Ping him and hope to god your team helps you. That's literally all you're able to do.

His attacks magnetize to you. Short of playing a character with a dash (Rocket) he will always close the gap with you. He's currently broken and you will need someone to peel him or you just die.

I've played a lot of Rocket and even after using dash he still magnetizes to me.

If you are playing Luna Snow, you can right click him and skate towards your team or around a corner or away. Since they usually will dash to you, it is an easy setup for your stun. Skating happens even if you take damage. So you can outrun him to your team. Just make sure to move in a straight line towards them. If you strafe without moving forward you lose your ice skating.

Same with Mantis. You can just sleep him, ping him, and move towards your team.

As rocket you can scamper up any wall and rocket jump away.

Loki you can teleport to one of your images further away or go invisible.

The only support I feel that would have a hard time might be Adam Warlock, but if your shield up then you can outheal most of his damage while running towards your team. Just be sure to use your chain heal if you get low cause it will chain to you multiple times if you are low.

Jeff can swim towards his team or up walls with his swim. You heal while swimming and move fast, so you can try to get to your team.

Cloak and Dagger, you have Cloak to go invisible and immune to damage. You can also blind him with Cloak's window and cause him to take more damage. You can use dagger's AoE heal to help with healing while you wait for the switch animation to go to cloak.

Those are just some things I could think of off the top of my head for any diver. Not just Iron Fist. Hope that helps.
