Iron Giant Combos in Multiversus¶

Unlike most other characters in the game, Iron Giant’s combos are very limited in nature. The reason why is because the character is extremely slow, and very heavy. The reality is that Iron Giant is not a character that will be doing lots of extended combos, and even its basic move set is very slow, and it’s always guaranteed to be a true combo.

• Very basic ground to air: Down attack > Up Attack .
• Very basic horizontal combo: Sair > Side attack x3
• Basic extended combo: Side Attack x2 > Down > Up . This only works if Iron Giant is directly on top of the enemy as the second hitstun will push them too far away to land the Down Attack.

You can also do some very basic combos while in the Protect Friends mode.

• Down to up air: Position your right leg on the enemy and then Down Attack . You can then make enemies airborne and use Special Up to zap energy through the suit for another hit. You can then Up Attack and launch rockets from your suit and hit the airborne enemies.
• Bubble scoop: Down Attack > Special Right . You can kick enemies from the ground into your cannon to get bubbles by Iron Gaint’s special mode. This is decent for protecting an ally in 2v2 and letting them drift off the edge.
• Floor blast: Up Attack > Down Special > Down Attack . Fire your missiles into the air, and then shoot your energy gun at a fighter. The energy blast will hit first and hitstun, followed by the rockets landing on your target. You can walk up to the hitstun enemy and then try to land a Down Attack kick and send them back into the sky.

Iron Giant Extended Combos¶

• Edge Guard combo: The iron giant can do Down Attack > Up Attack > Ground Combo > Nair > Sair> land into Side Attack x3. And then do it again for a large edge guard hitbox.
• Side Air 4 hit: The Sair move can hit four times if you angle it right. If enemies are on the ground, you can use the move to fall to the ground fast and then Sair before landing. It angles Iron Giant’s feet to the normal-sized character, lifting them up from the ground with two hits, then another two hits when they are at the side.
• Five hit Special Up: You need need to hit the enemy on the left side of Iron Giant’s body to get the first hit and follow the skill to land the remaining four. You can also get three hits with the Iron Giant’s up special. You can hit five shots on lower HP heavier characters, but it is harder.

Iron Giant Kill Combos¶

• Air kill at 95 HP: You can use the ground to aerial combo by Down Attack > Up Attack > Jump > Uair X2. This can kill if both Uair punches land. You may need to jump again to land the second one If they try to land, you can juggle with Up Special while in the air to hit them with the car and then land with a second upper punch.
• Spike Kill 130HP: Iron Giant can kill at 130HP guaranteed by landing the basic ground-to-air combo.
• Helicopter Sub 80 HP kill: Use a ground-to-air combo, followed by an Uair combo. Use your remaining fuel by using Special Uair and try and force them to the skybox. If all lands perfectly, you can get an 80 HP kill.

As you can see, there are not particularly many Iron Giant combos you can use outside of the few very basic Iron Gaint combos. However, mastering the ability to land those key Nairs and Uairs can net some very powerful kills.
