Raid role counters to IW

So it seems that it's all about the IW in this Raid season, and I am yet to see anything from Tactician that can handle her.

We know in assault HB works (what boost?), and in Vanguard it's all about OG IM.

    I go first. Tried Angela with Superior Buffs (I think that is the name). Very poor replacement to Hulkling and totally unable to deal with IW. Deals reasonably well with Prowler as long as you eat block damage to bait heavies and counter them (if that is a mission). Hood is just an easy punching bag as long as you always bait SP1s as soon as he reaches them because he gets a power gain at some stage that can push him to SP2 and its game over. Professor X is not as annoying as MODOK, but the AI is definitely on steroids and is able to even intercept you whilst you are intercepting him.

    My r2 Luke Cage cooked her, regularly hitting the 12% threshold. Important to note that you can prevent her force field from reactivating through ability accuracy reduction, which is tremendously helpful.

    Assault: Monkey with Crit Crusher.
    Her shield doesn't last long and he can consistently knock off the 12% without losing much health (I run full suicides)

    So the absence of Tactician nominations means there isn't a usable Tactician against IW.

    Superior Iron Man on the unique buff tactician boost works, someone in my BG used him this week and seems like he was a great substitute for hulkling

    Superior iron man is the only one that can 12% on her. No other option is close
