Removal of Parry with Autoblock

This is, to me, one of the most absolutely anoying things I have ever come across in this game. I was just in a fight with a Iron Man Infinity War (his sig was unlocked) who has the ability to auto block. However... every time Iron Man auto blocked, he also parried. And if u didnt know, Iron Man Infinity War auto blocks A TON OF TIMES. I basically had no chance. I got maybe 1 for every 10 hits! Please fix this, the auto block is already broken enough!

    When IMIW was first released, he was the bane of the existence of many players. It took a little time, but now his base kit is not terrible to play around.

    You need to keep an eye on his armors. For most of the fight, if he has 4 or more armor passives, you run a chance of getting auto-blocked/parried. If you see this, you can:
    A) Back away and let the armor fall off
    B ) Re-parry him by blocking the first hit and parrying the second, which will stun him, at which point he's open to heavies
    C) Hold block to bait his heavy. Evade the heavy and punish with your own.

    You lose option B if he's stun immune, but outside of that the strategies listed are usable by basically any champ. Additionally, there are a few champs that excel at taking down IMIW. Void is a favorite of mine...especially since IMIW is an Avenger and I can start with Fear of the Void with a synergy. Besides Void, any armor break champ does very well against IMIW. Medusa, Thor, Corvus, Vision Aarkus...all excellent counters, though they aren't necessary to beat him.

    It sucks, especially when playing corvus in AW, but unfortunately it will not be removed.

    What do you mean it sucks when playing Corvus in AW? He's like the best possible counter.

    or perhaps learn how to heavy intercept him? if you dont know what it is it means to intercept his heavy with your own heavy.

    Imiw is really really really really easy. You just need to adjust your playstyle then he's an absolute joke of a defender.

    Unless it's the Arena, with his Abilities and the AI, it makes for a tricky and drug-out Fight for long Grinds. Lol.

    İm absolutely agree with you while we hit on autoblock they already have ability to step back and hit but trigger parry is nonsense use to be this game was about skill but can anyone tell me if you don't have any truestrike hero how can you counter to that if anyone think other way i cant see a reason but they have benefit from it

    My favorite way to handle him (and i admit, it is not foolproof and causes its own issues) is to bait heavy, and heavy him inbetween his hits.

    Yeah there is some ways of course but i think its an op ability and must be completely removed or nerfed at least, i remember sw and dr strange nerfed because of nothing and sw still don't added as 5 star, and im looking now the autoblock with parry ability its nonsense

    Haha you don’t want to develop skills so you go on the forums and rant and complain

    You seem like a fresh player.. but the truth is, this game at the current stage demand great balance of skill and right champion for a matchup.

    When IMIW was first released, he was the bane of the existence of many players. It took a little time, but now his base kit is not terrible to play around.

    You need to keep an eye on his armors. For most of the fight, if he has 4 or more armor passives, you run a chance of getting auto-blocked/parried. If you see this, you can:
    A) Back away and let the armor fall off
    B ) Re-parry him by blocking the first hit and parrying the second, which will stun him, at which point he's open to heavies
    C) Hold block to bait his heavy. Evade the heavy and punish with your own.

    You lose option B if he's stun immune, but outside of that the strategies listed are usable by basically any champ. Additionally, there are a few champs that excel at taking down IMIW. Void is a favorite of mine...especially since IMIW is an Avenger and I can start with Fear of the Void with a synergy. Besides Void, any armor break champ does very well against IMIW. Medusa, Thor, Corvus, Vision Aarkus...all excellent counters, though they aren't necessary to beat him.
