The Power of Chi! Official Iron Fist thread!

Every time I read this threads title I misread it as “The Power of Chili…” and I am perpetually disappointed.

Am I the only one who wasn’t so pleased with the colors and thought Vergil’s looked way, way cooler? Maybe I’m still a bit salty that it’s the 70s look and not the new one…

I would’ve rather had a Power Man or regular Luke Cage alt instead of Power Fist, but I can see why they went with this version.
Two Steel Serpent? TWO? I mean, one makes sense, and I like that the purple was included…but I just wish they could have gone with something else, somehow.
Red’s cool, so I might use that.
White is ok, I’m just not the hugest fan of the overall look. White spandex that don’t quite fit, with a massive, open chest V-neck? Just kinda…I dunno, man.
Classic green is cool, though.

Now they need to reveal Hulk and Deadpool colors so I can make a decision on the new team uniforms. :sunglasses:

Also, sign me up for the Daredevil DLC costume bandwagon.

I can’t hate on Iron Fist in the least because he just rocks so much. What I do LOVE about the Vergil costumes is how much some of the other colors show off the design on the sides of his coat. I especially like the ones based on Nero and Demitri. I also love the Kyosuke one.

your not the only person. everytime i read the thread name i go and grab some saltine crackers from my cabinet…then i am dissapoint

Well personally for me its always been about how many color choices the person is given, its nice to have awesome looking alts(like vergils alt 2, 3, 5 and 6) but I prefer it when a character is given a lot of color choices as well, going back to the vergil example, as cool as all his alts are, he has 3 blue alts, which is kinda a bummer in that regard.

As for your statement bout the hulk and deadpool alts, unless they change one of their original 4 I think we already know what they are gonna be. Deadpool got this and this while hulks alts are here so once again unless they change some of their original alts we should already know what them two are getting. Deadpools red black and gold is awesome might i add.

Maybe if El Fuerte was in UMvC3…

Classic Hulk / Age of X Hulk
X-Men Deadpool / Death Wish Deadpool.

Hmmm…groovy. Sensing an abundance of green in my future.

I see that the purple fever is spreading… JOEEEEEEEEE

Anyway… is someone going to the event thats tomorrow? (I think?) we need more info on Iron fist :smiley:

To be honest, as much hype this guy can be, im worried abouthow is he gonna handle zoning, now that its stronger than ever in UMvC3. He might not even have a chance to get in, and his rekkas, what about pushblock? I would be pretty useless if a char who has 8 rekkas, couldnt get anything going because the first one got pushblocked.

/My 2 cents

There’s an assist for that.

I still think Dragon Palm will pretty much close back in after a push, but its of course hard to tell.

Anywyas, you should hopefully be getting your mixup (or unblockable) on the first or second Rekka

If you were wondering what all of iron fist theme sounds like WONDER NO MORE

Oh it also has all the other new character themes up

and here’s a download from eventhubs

when I first heard about iron fist back during the leak, the very first thing that popped in my mind was that I hoped he was like fei long. Thank you capcom. does anyone know if you could relaunch after his otg or does it take him to far airborne?

This is one of the character that i’m going to definitely try when the game comes out. I think he would be a very good partner with Ammy,since she could lock down with the cold star assist for Iron Fist to force a mixup of high and lows.

I think that you MAY be able to do Axe kick-Low kick-Dragon Palm, and then launch.

Purple forever dude

Too bad I really can’t see a purple Nova happening

Im trying to figure out which assist are good for him and also good partners, because I think its clear that he always should be first. Im really hoping Nova ends up being a good partner for him, or even a best friend lol

Yo that iron fist theme, DAT IRON FIST THEME!!!
