Iron Fist is one of the strongest and most powerful close-combat characters in the team-based shooter Marvel Rivals. Mastering the complex moves of the duelist is a difficult task, as he is ranked as a 4-star difficulty.

Possessing dragon Shou-Lao’s immortal Iron Fist power, his quick and aggressive melee attacks are exceptional. Although this makes him very strong in close-range, it leaves him vulnerable in ranged attacks. This can be balanced by teaming up with the following heroes, who are considered to be the best team-up choices for Iron Fist in Marvel Rivals.

1) Luna Snow

Similar to any other duelist, Iron Fist has a low health pool (250), making it essential to pair a healer for survival. This brings up Luna Snow as our first choice, as the healer shares a team-up ability with him. While Iron Fist deals heavy damage to the enemies, Luna Snow can constantly heal him throughout the battle with her Light and Dark Ice, Ice Arts, and Share the Stage abilities.

The synergy between the two characters is further enhanced by their team-up ability, Dragon’s Chill. It allows Iron Fist to channel the Chi of Shou-Lao into Luna Snow. This turns her ice power into a Chi-infused frosty ring, which inflicts chilling damage and applies a slowing effect. This also heals her allies.

2) Iron Man

Since Iron Fist stands no chance against ranged attacks, teaming up with Iron Man is essential to balance this aspect. Equipped with a nanotech battlesuit, Iron Man can execute powerful ranged attacks such as Repulsor Blast and Unibeam.

He is extremely mobile, which makes him move quickly from one end to the other. This allows him to patrol the sky and clear any long-range threats for Iron Fist. While Iron Fist takes out the close-range enemies, Iron Man clears the way by using his ranged attacks, making them a perfect team-up.

3) Jeff the Land Shark

Next up, we have Jeff the Land Shark. The cute, adorable shark is undoubtedly one of the best strategists in Marvel Rivals with exceptional healing abilities. Since Iron Fist has a low health bar, he will be quickly defeated with a few hits.

However, by teaming up with Jeff the Land Shark, that is not the case, as the shark constantly heals Iron Fist throughout the battle. When Jeff’s Joyful Splash and Healing Bubble abilities combine with Iron Fist‘s immense Chi force, the duo becomes unstoppable on the battlefield.

Additionally, considering Luna Snow is included in the team, Jeff the Land Shark unlocks his team-up ability with her, which greatly turns the tide of the battle.

4) Hulk

While Iron Fist is powerful, surviving multiple enemies alone is questionable. That’s why he needs the support of a tank, or we can say a Vanguard. Hulk, one of the best Vanguards in the game, can easily destroy multiple enemies on his own, especially in his Monster Hulk form.

When the green gamma beast is combined with Iron Fist, the duo has the potential to wipe out a group of enemies. Moreover, Hulk can also take out any ranged flying character with his Incredible Leap, covering Iron Fist’s vulnerability, and allowing him to unleash his skills more freely.

5) Wolverine

If you are looking for a way to pair up Iron Fist with another melee fighter, then Wolverine is your best pick. Both are formidable close-range melee fighters on their own, but what happens if these two are paired up?

This duo elevates the melee combat to the next level by unleashing its full potential. As Wolverine’s healing factor complements Iron Fist’s high-damage output, they can simply wipe out multiple close-range enemies together by following the dive-type strategy.
