7* Infamous Iron Man has some of the best power control in the game

Diegog2000

You can finish most fights without letting the opponent throw a single special, and the crit stat focus means he'll power burn even more power.

He doesn't really work for this BG meta, but in the next one he should be able to win fights in 40-50 seconds.

How is that? Vision went to 3 bars of power afew times in that fight and the majority of the time he stayed over 2 bars 🤔

The key word here is "throw". If you bait heavies the opponent won't use specials most of the times (aside from the A.I in ROl).
Besides that, you want them to have 2-3 bars of power to increase the damage of the SP2 power burn.

Don’t you also want to interrupt your heavy with the sp2?

If he did this then the vision wouldn’t have had a chance to throw sp3. Other than that the fight was flawless.

Most of the times yes, but sometimes I didn't have enough power to chain into the SP2 without the second hit of the heavy. If you time it right it shouldn't be possible for Vision to throw his SP3 while he recovers..

Yeah he’s underrated, not sure why many people don’t like him

His sp3 applies a 24 second special lock right?

The sp3 activates the aura then the sp1 applies the special lock

Yea I’ll take the better doom for that utility 😅

Idoom was always nice but for me nothing more unfortunately

Does the power control ability increase with star rarity?

Hulkbuster works the same way. I cleared SoS Toad with r2 Hulkbuster, and he can do it without having to deal with Root or Reversed Controls.

Glad you like him, OP - always good to see people championing some of the less-popular champions 👍

Yeah but Doom won't be a 7* for a long time, and unlike the OG IDoom doesn't need to use his SP3 for medium fights

But this only works if ai is cooperative most of the times ai will just throw a special
