Bring Mordo or Karnak or maybe Quake. It's not impossible just you need the right champs.
Quake is no good cus he cant evade his repulsors
Everyone keeps saying karnak and that is all.
So 5% of the of the player bas have a strong larnak and may be able to beat him easily....
Another 10% have to struggle to farm resources to power up karnak.....
The other 85% get smashed eternally as rng will not even give them a karnak....
We need more options than one champ....
Besides it doesnt change the fact this is a cheap mechanic. Parry is a mastery that is supposed to reward good skill.
Not something like this...
That’s because it’s not a BS ability that takes skill out of the game. You have to fight well and in the right style, be able to hold enough kinetic charges and then charge a heavy and launch SP2. That requires a certain level of skill. Iron man just parries you. He stuns you for literally hitting him. That is OP.
Gunna grind arena for him....
Even then alot who have him openly admit his is ######
From all my testing it has never shown to be same hit....
Can be the same attack in a multi hit special but it has so far proved to not happen on the same hit that gains his armor charge. If he already has one armor he can gain an armor and autoblock on the same hit....
Yea you had said but I thought it might be different if it was not from hits from a special attack..
Hmm interesting. So this makes it seem that he can be skilled around, just have to fight it the same way you would fight an evading champ.. Attack slower and watch for the armor up.
You can’t hit him after a special to activate true strike. You’d have to use the intercept synergy.
Even tried the sp1 to become unblockable by just blocking the last atk of his special and got to him but true strike still didn’t activate.
if this dude has an armor up each hit is a gamble 1/4 will autoblock......
So yes you can wait till he has 0
Armor and then hit amd stop as soon as he gains one but this is going to be slow and tedious as he very often procures one.
Atleast medusa needs 3 furies and even then you can hit her once for no risk of autoblock.
@linux medusa armor shattered does not work as i posted before as here armor shattered “prevents the opponnet from gaining armor buff” IMIW armour up is a passive ability not a buff. Her armor break does shatter it. Problem is if he has one armor up his armor can cause autoparry before your armor break would break it.
As far as using crossbones goes yes 5 furies would stop it but maintaing 5 furies constantly may prove difficult. I will have. To gove my cb a go and test him out.... elektra has proved useful for her ability reduction.
As i said autoblock is one thing. That is a challenge and ok. Its the parry that sucks the life and fun out of it
Medusa MM combo might work......
Just dueled him 4 times.....
Took medusa inonce i got him to approx 15% i stopped hitting him. After his armor finished i began hitting him again. Using only M attacks that apply an armor break he never once triggered armor.
Maybe slow and steady with medusa M attack might be a go.... need to play test this more
He can generate an armor on the same M hit that medusa applies an armour break......
He does not autoblock on the same hit though....
But back away when he gets the armour and you will not be parried.
noone will work on debuff immune.......
atleast she may work on other nodes.......
Ok, now try that on the armor gain/explosive personality node in AW and let us know how slow playing goes.
Have you fought a high ranked medusa in war? You either have to wait out her Living strands/ fury, or you have to bring a champ that prevents her from gaining those furies. I think the problem is that it is not always easy to wait it out (either the fury or armor up) before you get cornered and comboed, and because IMIW's armor ups are passive, the usual counters like Hood don't work.
Additionally, with Medusa, you can see the furies build up relatively easily (one every 3 secs), whereas with IMIW at under 15% health, you will get auto parried with only 1 stack of armor and every hit he deals out or receives, there is a 24% chance he will get one. When he is above 15%, I believe he needs 4 stacks, so it's not so bad (other than the armor tile in AW they mention).
Have you ever fought Mordo with Scarlet witch, moonknight or gwenpool? We have the same situation here. Part way through your combo you may hit him and cause a stun with these champions. Now, nothing happens until you hit him again. You know that hitting him when he’s stunned will astral evade but you’re already part way through your combo, you can’t react fast enough to stop.
Iron man will trigger armour and you’ll still get parried even though you see that he’s got an armour buff. You know it would parry you, but you can’t react.
