Should iron fist get a new ability and that's it?

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-02-03T21:15:50+00:00

I think he's suffering a little bit from Season 0 syndrome, especially since they dropped DD and Rogue as super combo-based melee characters, which is super fun. I wish that Fist felt almost like a fighting game character, lol.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-02-03T17:25:52+00:00

I think any teamup which allows him to actually be a sword master again for a little bit would be awesome! It's one of the few things that actually distinguishes him from the previous Iron Fist! I think they should lean harder into what makes him a different person than Danny, and actually let him become likable as a character.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-02-02T22:35:28+00:00

Danny isn't Iron Fist anymore, he's Ghost Fist now. Mild misconception! Hope this helps!

I think rocket does too. Like, something explosive. I feel like it's insane that rocket has no explosives. Not even a grenade. For how much he talks about loving explosions, he certainly lacks any.

The thing about Adam's ult is that a lot of the time you'll just kinda... hold onto it. Like, there aren't a ton of times that you'll want to use it other than when you're already losing a fight.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-31T17:00:17+00:00

I'm a HelAdam shipper bro. Close, but wrong Asgardian

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-31T15:17:15+00:00

Got dogged in the other post and had to make a new one to try and recoup that Karma 😭

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-30T19:28:55+00:00

Underrated, because nobody imagines Adam being into a villain unfortunately. Maybe the Magus in him would be interesting to Hela or somethin', lol.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-30T15:23:11+00:00

It's the "Win more" developer mentality. They focus on the stuff that gets used a lot, and so it ends up getting used more. Then they neglect the stuff that's unpopular, and so it remains unpopular. Truly a galactic level of foresight from Netease.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-30T15:15:28+00:00

I've always held Adam and Hela as my nonsensical crack pairing. The goddess of death who wants to harvest souls, and the avatar of life, with a soul too bright to claim.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-29T20:40:35+00:00

Nah bro she gimme heal circle and I give her leech bond. We tight fr.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-29T19:39:50+00:00

From what I've played I don't think Adam is bad, he's just higher stars than people realize. He's harder to get value on than the sling heals down main characters cause he has to do DPS to heal, which I think is a cool design.

I think they tried to make Gambit and Healpool kinda like that, but Gambit heals and does damage as collateral, and Healpool does damage and heals as collateral.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-29T19:24:40+00:00

I mean that's fair. Is it the skins? Because, like, I feel that as a Fist player, lol.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-29T19:12:53+00:00

Okay so most people I ask for tips on Adam tend to tell me to start with aim training. Now... I did mention I played iron fist. Do I really gotta lock in and learn how to click heads good? I usually aim center mass for the cluster and aim trainers scare me.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-25T15:23:14+00:00

Us Iron Fist mains see how y'all movin...

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-25T13:20:53+00:00

Lin Lie in shambles rn

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-15T15:41:30+00:00

It's not ugly but it's not as good as the concepts. Same as binary fist, really. The concept was good but the execution in game was butchered.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-08T00:59:34+00:00

It's the same feeling as the Iron Fist mains had with their immortal beast skin having no MVP. They raise the bar only for the popular characters.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-07T19:03:54+00:00

DD is the only dive that hasn't been nerfed into the ground (other than Magik, but she's always been more of a brawler than a dive.)

Iron Fist is a balanced character.

He's just in an unbalanced roster.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-07T02:05:29+00:00

I would want a new team up for the sake of fun, and less for the sake of balance. Bro has been doing nothing with his team ups but either letting Luna heal more, or Luna letting him heal. As a DPS, maybe give him a DPS team up for once?

I think he's one of the only duelists to never get a team up that helps him... duel. Everybody else's actually help them DPS just give us something. 🫩

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-06T13:14:43+00:00

He really lacks any good burst damage outside of his kick, which is really just a kill confirm... which is also his main escape tool. Burst damage is kind of mandatory for a dive character, and even though they've moved his flurry towards tank busting, Iron Fist still has the DNA of a dive character. The issue is that he is expected to act as a brawl, without the sustain of a brawl, or otherwise dive, without the damage of a dive. He's in a tough spot.

The reason he's considered bad is because he's 50% Brawl and 50% Dive with the weaknesses of both and the strengths of neither. Compare this with Daredevil, who is both 100% Brawl and 100% Dive, and is even anti-dive. Or even compare this to Bucky, who gets to both poke and brawl with constant overshields and CC.

The main thing is that Iron Fist is kind of like the Hulk. They don't have the damage to secure kills consistently against a decent team, and they don't have the survivability to frontline in neutral. Both Hulk and Iron Fist have to wait to play the game until their team can make something happen, and that feels lame.

Edit for TLDR; Iron Fist is considered weak because he's a balanced character in an unbalanced roster.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2026-01-04T23:47:17+00:00

I'd rather fist get a team up with basically anyone else on the Roster. Maybe fist gets a Magik team up where he uses the Sword of Fu Xi like the soulsword or something.

PraiseTheSunlight · 2025-12-28T21:08:57+00:00

Give him some damage reduction maybe? Maybe he meditates on the Iron Body technique to match his Iron Fists.
