Recommended Masteries:

- Block Proficiency, Perfect Block, and Stand Your Ground are solid choices because Auto-Block benefits from all Block-enhancing effects. These Masteries will go farther with Iron Man (Infinity War) than many other Champions. The damage reduction also stacks nicely with Molecular Armor to make Iron Man (Infinity War) quite tanky when Blocking while Armor stacks are active.

- Double Edge is essentially free offensive power since Iron Man (Infinity War) is always immune to Bleed at the start of a fight; however, be wary of Recoil as a prerequisite Mastery, since Iron Man (Infinity War) will want to utilize a lot of Special 1 and Special 2 attacks to generate Plasma stacks.

- Collar Tech is a great option for inhibiting enemy Power as it stacks nicely with the reduction from Repulsor attacks to allow Iron Man (Infinity War) to be hyper aggressive while also filling enemies with Power at an astonishingly slow rate.

- Courage is a cost-effective damage increase that’s maximized by Iron Man (Infinity War)’s ability to survive much longer while under 50% Health when compared to other Champions.

- Parry is an essential Mastery for virtually every Champion; however, it’s worth an extra mention here since the ability to Stun the opponent as their attacks are automatically Blocked really cranks up the threat level of Iron Man (Infinity War).

The only time I look at the power index for a champ is when I'm passing through the tricky part of arena infinite streaks (circa streak count 10-20). Beyond that, I don't care about the power index because it is only an abstract number, and doesn't represent anything important about how strong the champion is, at least to a first order approximation.

Masteries that increase attack rating will boost the power index substantially, but the reason to get those masteries is for the actual attack rating, and not usually just to increase the power rating. Many very strong champions have low power rating, and many weaker ones have high power rating. The number doesn't tell you how strong or valuable the champion is except in the rare situation where the number itself is important, like if you're joining an alliance that prioritizes prestige (which is somewhat based on raw power index before masteries).
