Is Captain America a good tank?

[NOOBSURVIVES YT]

I like his move set, he is faster than most tanks and can block and ricochet some ULT. I even got some kills just by blocking with his shield.
What do you guys think about Cap. as a tank?

[Lunar Fang]

I mean he's pretty fun and a good tank to pair with a melee dps.

[Skunk]

No

[BlunderingFool]

I'm surprised he wasn't a high mobility bulwark to be honest.

Hes very middle of the road in terms of strength but if you get good at him you can get some very very very good results with him. His job is pretty much 100% disruption, since he can win almost all 1v1 fights and can even survive 1v2 and 1v3 very easily (while often still getting a pick on a support) its his job to dive the back line during a fight (even when part of a poke comp) and shut down the healing/backline dps. Even if you don't kill them you still stopped them from doing their job for a bit and thats often enough.

And yeah using his shield as a ricochet threat is super valid, if you open your shield when a hela trying to point blank shoot you or a punisher is about to shotgun you then you can get some really funny picks.

So yeah I think he's good enough to play at high levels but you need to practice alot with him and basically main him if you want to compete at higher levels. He works best as a second tank but you can make him work with some 4 dps comps since he is so good at taking care of himself compared to most tanks. (his mobility keeps him up).

He's kind of like wrecking ball or doomfist from overwatch, most caps you see will be hot garbage but you'll run into a few that are absolutely crazy and will do more than well

He is very good at giving ult charge to the enemy team

[Lites]

He's much more of a bruiser than an actual tank. While other DPS like Black Panther and Spider-Man can jump in and cause chaos, their small health pool can get them deleted pretty quickly. However, Cap can also dive in and cause chaos but has the health pool to yeet out of there, dashing and running around the maps for health packs.

[Cpt Obvious]

He is a solid off tank.

lol he doesn't give more than hulk or venom if we're honest, probably less than groot too since he's such a big slow moving target.

He is great despite what people may think. You can't really walk in and live as long as say venom who gets tons of hp via one of his abilities. Cap is also kinda ass vs iron man who can easily poke you from mile away while you have very few attacks that can reach him.

Besides that he is dive in and run out type of tank. You can win games by simply keeping half of their team busy but this will only work if your team knows how to press W, which seem to be not as easy to find as it may seem.

He can also 1 v 1 tons of dps very consistently and got advanced combos. Also if you got Thor on your team then cap goes up a tier easily due to his team up ability.

You can sprint while holding block, deflect tons of attacks and ultimates, hold shield up and push opponents back while using your own ult. Also attack into leap into shield crash into shield throw into shield charge, so LMB - Shift + W - LMB - E - F combo will leave most dps at below 10% hp.

Unff, his team-up is sooo damn good. Gets such a massive dps boost in clumps of enemies.

[KaZudra]

If you see someone pick a Vanguard Yes. Captain is the most lethal off-tank.
His mobility alone allows you to dive and anti-dive in a reasonable distance.
His entire kit combos off each other.
Don't Sleep on the Thor Teamup, that ♥♥♥♥ gives you ricochet shield as a regular attack.

[Skunk]

Cap doesn't do anything it's all a stage performance, it looks like he's doing something useful but he isn't.

[reidjbuckley]

they always chase me around all game but end up losing

[Tiersei]

He's my preferred tank most of the time, especially on offense. Defense I'm a little more likely to pick magneto or peni. Venom's who I swap to if heals just aren't happening....

This is a great advice to switch to venom. Most players even when they pick support they only focus on kills instead of heals.
