Shang-Chi: 10 Things You Need To Know
7. He Is Proficient With A Variety Of Close-Combat Weapons
A bit like a really nice version of Bullseye (if you can imagine such a thing), Shang-Chi is not just a highly intuitive combatant but also an expert in various weapons. This includes swords, nunchaku, staffs and even the occasional gun.
But after intensive mingling with the Avengers and co, Shang-Chi was endowed with an extra gift from Mr Tony Stark himself - a set of nunchaku capable of discharging electricity.
Most comic superheroes base their fighting style around one singular iconic weapon, be it a shield, metal claws, or a general physical propensity in smashing stuff. Shang-Chi however is one of those dudes who can make the best out of whatever happens to be available. This gives him another potential edge over other Marvel characters.
Stripped of their one weapon or talent, many heroes find themselves caught short in the fight, but Chi's fighting flexibilty means that any weapon used by an enemy can ultimately be used against them. Whilst they discharge an attack, they also offer a weakness.
