Is Iron Fist’s Sig pointless?

I have a 5 Iron Fist with a sig ability around 70. There is no real difference in damage output if he has 6 armor breaks or none. Am I missing something or is his sig no functioning. Iron Fist used to be a decent champ but has become little more than arena fodder. An explanation would be appreciated.

Multiple Aromr Breaks should be causing serious damage and this is not happening.
So with IF, what’s happening is that after just 2-3 stacks of armor break, you’re not quite bypassing all armor but, your bypassing a majority of it and are getting close to 0 armor. At least to the point where the additional damage for another armor break becomes pretty small compared to the first armor break.
This is especially noticeable because most people are judging the effectiveness by looking at the damage from crits. Crits already bypass a large amount of armor on their own so the increase to damage done from stacking armor breaks will tend to be smaller.
(1) For an opponent who has very little or no armor, does it mean x10 of armor stacks will have nothing much to remove, hence:-
(a) one stack of armor break, attack damage is say 400
(b) five stacks of armor breaks, attack damage is still around 400+
(c) ten stacks of armor breaks, attack damage is still around 400+
(2) For an opponent who is heavily armored, and very often accumulate stacks of armor up effect, then many stacks of armor break will have alot of usefulness, hence:-
(a) one stack of armor break, attack damage is say 40
(b) five stacks of armor breaks, attack damage is say 400
(c) ten stacks of armor breaks, attack damage is say 800
Were you testing your IF's armor breaks against some teenie tiny dudes like Spiderman? or something heavy and bulky like HB and Ducky?
