She's above avg but not top
But a solid safe attacker, checkout her showcase videos.

I like her a lot, she's really safe to play and it's really strong in incursions

Great util, average damage. The only issue with her is maintaining her dot over longer fights can be slightly tricky but overall she is a great champ. Definitely give her the sentinel relic because that can give you chances to pause her incinerates.

Agreed. I'm not the best player, but in complicated matchups, it is pretty hard for me to reach more than 15 debuffs comfortably as I am often forced to use my SP2 or be stuck just constantly using my SP1 for the pause.

That said, her utility is fantastic. Offensive ability accuracy reduction on the block is such a nice ability to have.

She's not the best at burst damage, nor for longform content, but she is great for questing.

very safe but stressing to play

Just letting guyz know I r3d her as soon as I got her from crucible titan. I don't regret it. She is very versatile and great as well as underrated. I see people hating on her for absolute no reason which I find infuriating. She has dmg utility everything. She is like morbius with better dots, dmg, utility.

She’s too slow in BGs so that’s why some people aren’t too high on her.

One sp1 and a sp2 should be enough for most healthpools?

DocWest · August 12

She’s not fast enough. How many top BGs players use her? Almost none. The one I saw showcasing her lost some of the matches on time lol

Then why wasn’t she rebalanced?

i think she is very fun to play and is a really good counter to nearly every mutant (except domino). She is worth testing and using. I love my r2 7*

She isn't a domino counter?

She's similar to Guardian. SP1s then SP2, depends on healthpool

Small HP - sp1 & sp2.
Larger HP - 2x sp1 & 2x sp2

Also she needs the vision relic.

She’s closer to CapSam than Guardian. Damage actually seems really close to Sam in my testing

She does not have better utility than Morbius.

She's either great, pretty good/solid, mid, or horrible depending on what you look for in a champ. If you want 20 second K.Os in BGs like half of the community does, then forget about it. But if you want a solid mutant counter, a champ who can parry non-contact attacks, bypass miss, inflicts ruptures or incinerates debuffs, has armor ups, is reverse control, incinerate, and coldsnap immune, can remove prowess, power drains.....

I personally think she's pretty good overall. Only issue is keeping her armor ups stacked, and keeping her debuffs up for major damage.

Yeah I think a lot of people are sleeping on her, I would have liked for her to have a way to refresh her DOT but since her balancing has passed, she's fine.

I have to say, I disagree with both of you on the Morbius side of things.

Sure, stack debuffs to increase the damage on SP2, but there are far more different things to her playstyle compared to Morbius. Scorpion would be a better comp (prefight to change debuff types, place debuffs with M, do things to pause/extend debuff timer, and use SP2), as that was even called out by the developer in the champion spotlight. She's not as good as Scorpion, but her playstyle is similar.

She has more utility, that is practical, than Morbius. Morbius has the phase ability, but the cooldown timer (if you're not fighting against Mystics) makes it to be something you can't rely on all the time. The only other utility he has is his Undying, which is a pretty niche thing.

Ironheart's utility is pretty much active and accessible in the course of her normal playstyle.
There are more matchups where I think "oh, Ironheart could work here" than I do for Morbius.
