Not to be that guy but what’s the “strategy” to fight Infinity War Iron Man?
I feel like this has been covered but besides hoping the enemy has recoil and hitting their block or dying I’ve yet to find any way to fight this ridiculously amped up mecha-wannabe.
Like seriously willing to fight even Dormammu and Donino for 1 node over him... and Medusa…

HOW?! Not only a how as to heavy him but also how to get Void?
Crystals are awful and scheduling prevents me from doing arena outside the catalysts.
Immunity to bleeds
His heavy can’t be countered due to that sword always clipping me by what seems like pixels
His AI always makes him dash late
His specials can’t be punished due to the range and lack of landing lag
And the auto block parries my heavies
And the nodes are still bugging out so the armor from optimist (and possibly pessimist) are acting as molecular armors
He’s ridiculous for an outside lane that literally is supposed to expect nothing yet without fail just attracts him. And apparently… you NEED medusa or void…
Look on YouTube, plenty of videos showing how it's done. Best counters are hype, void, sparky and even bleed champs as long as you understand his abilities an when you can apply bleeds.
Depends on nodes but you can play him by baiting out heavys then punish him. Another tactic is when starts to launch a heavy you intercept him by using a heavy of your own. Just look on you tube an practice with duels
Two things:
Have you tried using a heavy attack without parry or abusable specials? It doesn’t happen especially not against blocks (which it was designed to beat) or already in motion heavies
How does one “practice against nodes”?
If not, killmonger synergy will winter soldier can get your job done by intercept, although you need to get used to this
Or chanpions like black widow, crossbones, or elektra, Or anyone with high percentage of ability reduction can get the job done, although it’s little risky
If it is not specific champions you are referring to, i guess i agree with the others
Practice heavy counter. As simple and stupid it may sound, it’s actually very effective
Get her missions done and you have, though quite short, true strike. 100combo for her dupe is ridiculous, so I won’t say much about that lol
Yes i have a have no problems killing iwim without dying on every node I've faced him on.
If you "practice" the heavy intercept with your heavy then it doesn't matter the node, an doesn't matter if he is stun immune. He only becomes a problem when he is at 15% health, You can fight against him normally up til then. At 15% that's when you implement the heavy intercept or try save an l3 an try to kill him that way.
People here are giving you advice an telling you what works for them. Dueling iwim makes a huge difference an makes it easier to fight in war. If you don't want to listen to that advice then that's up to you.
It's one thing to need a specific strategy to get past a high-level war node. It's another thing for that strategy to be the only way to beat him.
IWIM is beyond an out-of-balance champ. It's worse than fighting a bugged Modok. I just hope Kabam changes him soon.
He can if he has the Stand Your Ground mastery.
All I meant is that no matter how I can’t heavy him. That sword is literally just too long for me to counter without a 50/50 chance I get slashed.
And it’s not just dueling him. It’s making sure it’s possible to fight him under even worse conditions
I understand they’re the “best way” but if I had those champs I’d obviously not be in this spot now would I
You're not meant to heavy intercept at the end, it's only after the first part.
The sword, and even the hammer animations really shouldn't occur for the best results.
I have. Countering his heavy always leaves me either fully hit, clipped by the last hit, or backed into a wall.
As for stand your ground mastery, Kabam is surely to be blamed here
How exactly are you countering his heavy? From what you've said, it is not the same as the method on YouTube, because you usually can gain ground while doing the heavy intercept method as it is on YouTube. If you're struggling with getting a heavy off quickly enough, try swiping down on the screen. It won't register as a dash back or dash forward, and it'll turn into a heavy (you might need to practice it a bit)
You need to practice countering his heavy after the first hit, not the last. YouTube videos will show you the timing. Once you get that, you can beat him with almost any champ
No matter where in the heavy I counter hon I end up dead.
Who’s bright idea was to limit duels a day without paying?
I never said I’m gaining much success. He’s an odd combination of watching him and his nodes.
Not to mention this method still requires and exasperated amount of block damage which feels filthy on Kabam’s part
It’s intentional. The claim is with “any champion” so I’m using the most stock champion I have access to at the moment to avoid any inherent advantage based on being lucky with crystals. Any champion can take out Dormammu or Mephisto and most can brutalize Domino. Evaders are possible with everyone. So using the most generic champion possible to fight IMIW sounds about right.
