Official Biography
"Robotic hero from beyond the stars."

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.

Gameplay
The Iron Giant is a tank-type of character who specializes in providing a solid frontline for the team while mitigating damage from his Neutral Special, Bolt Friends, which will grant him temporary armor based on the ammount of bolts the Iron Giant current has (up to five). Bolts will spawn when the Iron Giant hits opponents with certain moves, namely his ground neutral attack, ground up attack and ground down attack; when bolts are picked by allies, they will gain gray health.

The core mechanic of the Iron Giant is to activate his Rage Mode, which grants him a whole new set of attacks and specials, mostly of them being ranged. When used on 2v2, the partner ally can enter the Iron Giant while in Rage Mode and unleash even more attacks. Rage fills whenever the Iron Giant deals damage and/or his ally takes damage.

Overall, the Iron Giant has decent frame data, with certain attacks covering all around his body and have extended reach. This is offset by his slower movement and attack speed, as well a long window for frame cancelling with dodge and/or jump. Additionally, the Iron Giant is currently the largest character in the game, meaning he has a large hurtbox, making him very susceptible to being combo'ed and juggled by other characters, particularly fast hitting Assassins, such as Harley Quinn and Arya Stark. Nevertheless, he is among the heaviest characters in the game, and Bolt Friends and Rage Mode provide him with exceptional survivability and comeback power, respectively.
