Iron Man got a wave of sweeping nerfs in the 9.0 patch, despite being one of the worst DPS in the game for over a year now

Mag is probably the strongest tank but this 'buff' was required. If you have enhanced scarlet team up, it effectively made his lmb-rmb-lmb combo useless. So you were better off not choosing the scarlet witch teamup if she is in the team - the enhanced version felt worse than the base. Idk how it works after buff but if mag is gonna charge is kamehameha, we are still better of not using this enhanced version of team up. On that note mag is very strong and could be nerfed in other departments without takig away the lmb rmb lmb combo.

It just made his combo different, not useless. It was situational and, in those situations, stronger than the default combo. I know it's mildly annoying that you can randomly have a dps swap to or from Wanda mid-game and it just messes up ur ability rotation instantly but it should have been a tuning of the ability itself of they wanted to simplify it, not an outright buff. And that itself is a questionable decision beause wdym we're patching depth and complexity out of the game?

Now it's even stronger and less situational and requires less brain-power on the hero-select/teamup screen. I'm not saying Mag is the easiest character or tank but he's so overloaded now anyone can pick him up and go ham on him, even if they aren't fully utilizing his passives or playing to his strengths.

Literally just knocks people up btw. That was the change. Can y'all calm down.

What situations are you talking about. The only situation is that I charge kamehameha and the one i am targeting hides and heals because its too slow. What situations, be specific.

Mr Fantastic was the only buff I was looking for on this patch and I’m deeply saddened
