It's quite frustrating when one of the easier-to-play characters happens to be one of the strongest in the game. This is the case with Marvel Rivals and Iron Man. It makes sense, Iron Man is one of the most popular characters in the modern era and has the unique ability to fly wherever he goes, giving him an advantage in that sense.
But how do you actually counter him? Stay tuned to this article where we will explore the best way to counter Iron Man in Marvel Rivals.
Iron Man Counter in Marvel Rivals
One of the biggest problems players have when going up against Iron Man in Marvel Rivals is the fact they are unable to attack him. Melee characters specifically, are unable to do sustained damage to him and will ultimately not be a challenge for him. Iron Man has the unique ability of being able to fly across the map while firing projectiles that deal a ton of damage even at range, therefore if you're hoping to kill him as a melee hero, you're out of luck.
While there are many counters to Iron Man in Marvel Rivals, we are going to go over the hero who is personally our favorite when going up against the billionaire philanthropist Tony Stark. That hero's name is Lunar Snow.
Lunar Snow is a Strategist Hero that can both deal damage and also heal up allies to ensure they are always in the fight. We feel this is one of the optimal characters to deal with Iron Man. Not only does she have ranged abilities, but she can also slow him down and cause his flying to be ineffctive against her. Let's take a look at her abilities.
Ability name | Description |
Light and Dark Ice - Left Click | Fire ice shots that damage enemies and heal allies. |
Fate of both worlds - Q | Lunar Snow starts dancing and can alternate between two dances. One heals, and one provides a damage boost. |
Ice arts - L Shift | Fires ice shards over a short duration, these damage enemies while also healing allies that also restores her own health. |
Share the stage - E | Attaches an idol aura to an ally, that ally restores health while also restores others. |
Absolute zero - Right Click | Casts a clump of ice that freezes the enemie that is hit. |
Smooth Skate - Passive | Keep moving forward to start ice skating. |
Cryo heart - Passive | Automatically start healing when casting Ice arts or Absolute zero. |
Lunar Snow is considered a 2-star difficulty by the developers, meaning she's not the easiest hero to use in the game, but she is also simple enough for players to pick up straight off the bat if they are new to the game. Her left-click ability provides enough ranged damage to whittle down Iron Man's health, and her right-click can freeze him mid-flight and bring him down towards ground level. This in our opinion is one of the easiest ways of tackling Iron Man in Marvel Rivals.
