Great guide but he left out two things: 1.) The sprint setting change for Captain America from “hold” to “toggle” sprint is a must imo. That way you’re always sprinting when moving 2.) The combo of throwing your shield during your fearless leap at your target and while still in the air slamming them right after for added damage
This guide helped me a lot! I just won like 10 games (one was 27 kills) in a row and finally stepped out of the bronze limbo. Cap has been so fun to play, and when he does his thing he feels so impactful to the team. Definitely maining him
In addition to frontline disruption, his speed also allows him to jump backward as a defence against divers. I found him effective against ironfist, BP, spiderman in a protective role as well as an offensive role. Essentially I want to 2v1 as defence or 1v2 as offence
That’s great help, i learn a lot from your vids. That would be cool if, sometimes, you keep the perspective of the opponent who killed you, and take the opportunity to teach something about a mistake you did with the character. Like, oh he killed me cause i did this or i didn’t do that, you know. Not always, but if it can serve the purpose of teaching something
im still in the lower ranks which tends to not have any Thor's so I hope that they make their team-up ability a part of his Ultimate some time in the future. Thanks for this guide! Really cleared up somethings and helped reinforced the right habits I was unsure of
I like to open with a shield toss immediately shield dash into the target and then start my shield bash. That way I'm on the target quickly for a lot of damage.
Good video but I think you could have emphasized other tank comps with Captain America more. You’re very lucky to get the Thor team up with a duo, but in most games you aren’t gonna see that since Thor is situational. Let’s say Cap was a C tier hero, Cap with Thor team up would be a B… without that team up your TTK increases significantly on even back line.
Cap just clicks with me. Was doing great as him before I even figured out how his passive melee works. Reading that felt like he got a buff when he was already great before!
I still have so many characters to try. I started with Spider-Man (cuz he’s my favorite) but I struggled with him. Then I started support classes and I love cloak & Jeff. In DPS, I love psylocke. I enjoy them so much I find it hard to try new characters lol
Best team up i love is cap Thor Hela Loki then you can have like a Luna with iron fist or for more ranged quill and Adam. All team ups active can even drop Loki if you want and get Jeff all team ups still active. I like you didn't leave Jeff when you started to run away in video you were then corrected for his survival to.
I always struggle with Cap, I feel like he's a little lacking compared to some other characters. He is my favorite avenger though so i keep trying to get better with him. I just feel like hes a little squishy compared to the other Tanks that can heal themselves or give themselves armor. I also don't seem to get paired with healers that are more interested in trying to be DPS, so in competitive I typically play healer myself
@@davisarnold4455 animation cancel aren't accelerating the kill time of 3.11 seconds (11frames) from holding down the basic attack. Which I explained I actually did test it and its slower because of the fact that theres is End frames on abilities. Don't come at me with this weak shit
It definitely feels like he’s missing an edge. He isn’t great at anything. He isn’t a full assassin, nor a true tank, nor an effective flanker. It feels like a player’s game sense is the only edge you could kind of have in a game. He’s not competitive at all without a main tank. For context, i just hit Diamond mostly playing captain America as well.

Yeah those are very good points for sure, thanks for the insight!!
Which way is changed? Hold or toggle?
What is the setting change?
What's the sprint setting?
@@RegalRexus I think the default is hold so it’s the other one
You are my go to channel for marvel rivals guides, hope you complete all the tanks!
Hey man, thanks for the comment, for sure I'll try to do them all !! and other types of videos too :))
Nice guide sir thanks for including the gameplay to go along with it.
Glad you enjoy it!! ☺️
Captain A.I.Merica skin.. so hot right now.

Lfg!!!! Congrats🎉
Been waiting for this one to come out
I gottttchuuuu
I think he'd be perfect if the dash had a stun effect like 0.5-1 second stun would be balanced wouldn't it?
While it makes sense to me I feel like cap having double stun would just destroy any soft target. Maybe a slow instead of a stun.
@@johnkirk7606 would be cool!!
We're getting out of bronze with this one, boys!
Letssss gooo!!!

Captain was the 2nd tank I picked up behind Peni and now I have the most hours on him and Venom.
They're just too good, bro.

awesome vid man!! your thor, RTmusic, was cracked too!!
Yeahhhhh, crackeddd teammate
As a storm player its always nice to see people using Thor or captain America
Agreed
lol
Kinda hoping they don't buff him now that I'm learning his advanced techniques. If he stays more of niche character that works for me.
I like to open with a shield toss immediately shield dash into the target and then start my shield bash. That way I'm on the target quickly for a lot of damage.
i found that we can hold shield during running. i combined this with F dash or jump strike to push into site aggressively.

One damage buff is all I need, but my main has already gotten me to gold

Haha same! I had no clue about the melee shield throw now I'm doing even better!

I wrecked Punisher by using the shield when he was on the turret
He needs an unlimited shield throw. I just want to throw his shield at people lol
also that ult on hela was big brain 22:45
22:37 *
Sometimes solo ulting importsnt targets can be verrryy useful
Great video, been struggling to find a tanky character I like to use, but this has made me want to give Cap a go
@@dakeos9854 thanks! Remember to dive the backline ;)
Hey thanks. I’m on ps5 and I can’t seem to control that jump as well. Could be a skill issue but those little jump dives seem impossible
awesome gameplay! Hoping they buff caps damage a bit, takes forever to take down anyone you dive
Don’t solo dive

I also don't seem to get paired with healers that are more interested in trying to be DPS, so in competitive I typically play healer myself
Just hit diamond with hela solo q
does this require a thor duo or will it be more of an up hill battle without him
He's still playable for sure! Try to just play him with any other Dive character and dive the backline together!
Ive got a lot of complain from the healer as cap cause theyre not able to heal due to the mobility
How do I do the shield Throw on controller?
L1
I wish the game would not be bugged with the constant camera drifting on ps5 so I could actually play the game great
I never knew you could do a shield throw after hitting two melee attacks! Lmao 😅
Cap is fun to play
I use the shield dash as an escape move. My get out of jail free card
How do you reach diamond in this game?
comms in hero shooters is so annoying to listen to "punisher punisher punisher, strange one, cloak cloak cloak cloak."

It's not a you problem. Good guide!
I'd rather know what's going on than it be easy listening
@@spacedoutcowboy5211 yelling out character names over and over like you're on coke is not telling me any information of value
Stuck in plat 1 with cap
If hulk can inflict damage on dr strange and his magical shield then why not the same on captain America 😂, game is still fun as hell.
I just target healers
Bro has 36hours on 1 character already…
“Diamond guide” after going over “combos” for 30 seconds and not mentioning a single animation cancel lmfao
@@davisarnold4455 animation cancel aren't accelerating the kill time of 3.11 seconds (11frames) from holding down the basic attack. Which I explained

Don't come at me with this weak shit
People who are complaining about him being weak, just animation cancel, he can 100-0 if you can hit your moves
He just feels far too weak as a Vanguard. Needs a buff or retooled kit
He isn‘t a full vanguard I would say. Would play him as something between vanguard and dps
its sooo annoying playing him, bc he does soooooo few damage and need a damage buff
It definitely feels like he’s missing an edge. He isn’t great at anything. He isn’t a full assassin, nor a true tank, nor an effective flanker.
