Okay, so here’s the thing. Ever play Marvel Rivals? I’ve been at it for a bit, and I gotta say, most heroes don’t really faze me—like being Magneto, deflecting Punisher’s bullets? Easy, right? And Emma Frost? Grabbing Spider-Man mid-swing just to annoy him? Yeah, that’s my jam.
But then there’s this dude—Iron Fist. I swear this guy is my personal nightmare. I mean, I see the high-level players shrugging him off like it’s nothing. But me? I’m stuck in Diamond. Blame it on my split-time gaming habit—Overwatch, anyone? Anyway, folks down here have no clue what to do with Iron Fist, so, naturally, I get my backline trashed before I can even blink. Real fun, right?
Now, you’d think I’d throw a party knowing he might be less popular soon. Nope, not even close. So, apparently, we’re getting Blade on August 8. Yep, the vampire hunter himself. And from what I’ve seen (and mind you, I haven’t blinked in watching the reveal trailer), Blade is like Iron Fist, but, you know—scarier.
First thought: Blade races towards enemies like he’s late for a coffee date. And his sword deflects like he’s fencing bullets. Fast combos, fancy spins—he’s practically dancing on the battlefield. Oh, and he packs a gun. Take that, ranged attacks! I’m just picturing him cutting up my team before I can say, “Oops.”
The real kicker? His ultimate. Picture Psylocke’s Dance of the Butterfly—ever see it? Now squeeze that dance into a tight line and watch foes fall like dominoes. Sorry, Iron Fist, but your Living Chi buff just doesn’t hold a candle to this.
Even his gun’s not packing Winter Soldier heat, but a few well-timed shots? Say goodbye to my bruised and battered backup. Yeah, I’m bracing for the Blade wave at Diamond ranks—and thinking every Iron Fist main is switching teams. My struggles? Not going away. Just, you know, a shinier, edgier version now.
So, in essence, I’m just here, dusting off my Magneto helmet, waiting for Blade to drop in and wreak havoc. Sounds fun, huh?
