Iron Fist is a Duelist hero introduced as the game's 30th character. This iteration features Lin Lie, a Chinese martial artist who wields the power of the Iron Fist after fusing the shattered Sword of Fu Xi with the Chi of Shou-Lao. Known for his agility and close-quarters combat prowess, Iron Fist excels at swiftly engaging enemies and retreating before counterattacks. He possesses team-up abilities that synergize with Luna Snow, enhancing their effectiveness when paired together. Recent updates have reworked Iron Fist to function more as a brawler, increasing his effectiveness against tank heroes.

Team-Up: Atlas Bond

The Atlas Bond Team-Up ability activates when Iron Fist and Luna Snow are paired together. This synergy allows Iron Fist to channel the Chi of Shou-Lao into Luna Snow, enhancing her ice powers. As a result, Luna Snow gains a new active ability called Frozen Chi, which releases a Chi-infused frosty ring that radiates from her, knocking back enemies, dealing chilling damage, applying a slowing effect, and simultaneously healing nearby allies. This ability provides both crowd control against enemies and support for teammates, making it a versatile tool in various combat scenarios.

How to Play Iron Fist in Marvel Rivals: 5 Key Tips

Master Mobility and Positioning: Utilize Iron Fist's Wall Runner ability and triple jump to navigate the battlefield swiftly. Use high ground and flanking positions to surprise enemies and avoid being an easy targe.
Chain Abilities for Maximum Damage: Learn to combo Iron Fist's abilities effectively. Start with Dragon's Defense to empower your attacks, then use K'un-Lun Kick to close the gap, followed by a barrage of empowered basic attacks.
Target Priority Enemies: Focus on eliminating squishy Strategists and low-health Duelists. Iron Fist excels at quickly taking down high-value targets, disrupting the enemy team's strategy.
Balance Aggression with Survival: While Iron Fist can deal massive damage, he's vulnerable if caught out of position. Use Harmony Recovery wisely and retreat when necessary to heal up before re-engaging.
Leverage Chi Absorption: Take advantage of Iron Fist's passive ability by securing takedowns or assists to regain health. This sustain allows you to stay in fights longer and maintain pressure on the enemy team.
