This Champion is INCREDIBLY OP. I can't even get past him in a regular quest because of all of his Insanse Mechanics... He Auto Blocks, U can Barely Parry Him..The way His Specials are set up, u cant dash in for a combo after he activtes either of his specials, When he's low on health hes consistenly Auto Blocking and at the same time hes gaining power so im constantly evading specials. U Cant Nullify his Armor...Even when armor is Broken he Has Passive Armor AND HE BYPASSES ARMOR SHATTER???? Come on Seriously??? Its Insane. TUNE HIM DOWN KABAM.

Hold block to bait a heavy. His heavy attack is easily punished. If he has few armors, you can use a heavy of your own. Otherwise, you can go in for a 5-hit combo.
Once you get this down, you can take him down pretty easily with any champ.
That is all, thank you
Yea theres little hints and tips thats still doesn't and take away the fact this guy is SUPER OP...what about his constant power gain?? Constantly having to evade SP1
Venom true strike activate only wen hes below 18%
He only gets that when he's duped and very low health with armors. Let the armors fall off and you don't have to worry about it.
.....Trying to think outside the box...
Void?
You have to learn how to fight other ways than a basic parry-combo button mash style to beat him.
I wouldn't exactly consider Void to be "outside the box". I'd argue that Void is the single best counter to IMIW in the entire contest. Corvus might give him a run for the money, but I'd still give the edge to Void. Especially in any fight longer than a standard arena fight.
Easy to evade i agree and thats not the issue...its the fact u cant rush him for a combo after evading because he recovers so quickly
As many have stated, there’s nothing wrong with an Iron Man that has finally some use.
He might be a hard defender to fight but by no means unbeatable.
So listen to the advice given by the rest here and practise. Once you get used to fighting him, he’s not that tough.
Awesome fight mate, do you swipe forward and hit heavy? Because my venoms heavy doesnt reach imiw he just stand there and swings
Yeah. It was an answer/guess outside "my box". I only received Void recently so I'm only learning to use him now. I went ahead and mentioned him since he did seem like a great solution but I didn't;t have any current experience. Thanks for verifying.
No problem.
Void is able to give solid damage over time, so your time spent baiting specials isn't wasted. And we all know that in a war fight, you don't have a ton of time to mess around. Plus, by the time you get him down to the range where his sig ability activates, you'll likely have fear of the void active, so his power gain is either halted or even reversed depending on how many petrify debuffs are active. While you're waiting for the armors to fall off so you don't get auto-blocked, he's not going to gain any power and he'll likely just die from the damage over time.
Plus Void's heavy has some really good range. It's very easy to use and pushes the enemy back a lot, which helps keep him from getting cornered.
I will say that I used Void against UC Quest Starky Boss recently and he went down very fast with that degen. He is a VERY good solution to that one.
All true. Plus, he's very willing to throw specials. If he's got a bar of power, be ready to evade.
He's not stingy with specials like some champs *glares at Medusa*
