The Iron Giant
The enigmatic, mechanical marvel nicknamed “The Iron Giant” crash-landed off the shore of Rockwell, Maine shortly after the launch of Sputnik in 1957. With no memory of his past and no clear direction for his future, he was found by a young boy named Hogarth Hughes, who quickly became his best friend. Loyal and brave, the Iron Giant is a defender of the innocent and has vowed to always emulate his hero: Superman.
Passive Skills
- The Iron Giant does not have a double jump, but will instead fly when holding the jump. Flying activates his rocket boots, propelling him upwards and consuming fuel.
- The Iron Giant gives the thorn effect to allies which returns part of the damage suffered to the opponents
- When Iron Giant inflicts damage or his ally suffers damage, he gains rage. When full, he can enter rage mode which will alter some of his moves and give him gray health while making him immune to knockback. When this gray health is depleted, it exits rage mode. It will also exit Rage Mode after a period of time. In Rage mode, allies can press the normal neutral key to pilot Iron Giant.

Special Moves
- Neutral: BOLT FRIENDS / HYPERSTATIC ASSAULT — Iron Giant summons BOLTS to circle him. Each BOLT acts similarly to ARMOR but is immune to ARMOR BREAK abilities. Can be summoned while he is performing other moves. His allies receive GRAY HEALTH based on the number of bolts. Both will have an electric discharge after a short delay. In RAGE MODE, Iron Giant will fire a powerful electrical PROJECTILE. Separate COOLDOWNS apply for both attacks. When Iron Giant picks up ITEMS, he will eat them, refreshing the COOLDOWN for his BOLTS.

- Top : SYSTEMS ARE GO! / ELECTRIC SURGE — Iron Giant spins a beat-up hot rod around himself, blocking PROJECTILES.

COOLDOWN applies to the electrical strike.
