Spiderman is this games reaper, I've had way too many jump into the middle of my whole team...or the enemy teams and ult, and just die immediately. It might not be ow but the ow players are the ones playing😂
I 100% think the 1 sec cooldown is because he reflects with his shield and flicker-blocking with that would be stupid overpowered, even by this game's standards.
His ult is basically were gonna get in your face and spam everything while running around. Everyone gets over health. Bonus, you get a cool trail effect.
That is how I play him. I flank to the backline. Target supports try to kill. Then run like a bitch. Rinse repeat. As long as the Supports are distracted they can't heal. Teamed up with other flankers Cap is just fun.
Cap main here! I love him. And being the one in game to make call outs, stalling on the point alone till my team gets back and then dying but they hold, it all feels very in character. (In contrast I refuse to play tank in OW anymore, miserable experience). Yeah Cap doesn’t do the most damage, but he’s a consistent annoyance to the enemy team and they either have to deal with you or run and in the mean time you’re enabling your team. It’s also insanely satisfying to finish off targets with the shield throw. I don’t always have the most elims (sometimes I do) but getting up there and never dying can get you MVP.
"Cap doesn't do the most damage" Honestly I find that a fine point considering he's a tank. This game is more on the dota side where most champs (aside from some supports) are designed to be solo monsters but if there are some tanks who aren't like that I'm perfectly fine.
Yeah the raw stats on cap isn’t the main draw IMO. It’s his fucking speed. He is always weeving in and out of combat and constantly harassing the enemy that it’s hilarious. I once saw a comment saying he is so much of a dive tank that he is no longer a dive tank. He is a distraction tank and I think it fits. Even in the video where 4 people were ganging up on him and he says he isn’t a threat. I think that’s ironically how it should be. Cause if so many are targeting you and missing you, then you are doing your job as a tank to make people focus on you. Just that you are so fast that you can barely hit him, and when you do it’s small chunks with his health.
His kit has some obvious flaws, but I get the sense they're intentional to test how strong he'd turn out BUTTTTTT They gotta get rid of the Shield CD ASAP, maybe more shield HP or faster regen. His sustain is crazy, but he has to leave the fight most of the time to find HP. He is SOOOOO fun tho, his animation cancels are smooth af. AND OF COURSE, I have the same fav as Flats lmao.
@johnjone965 he has a red carpet that gets rolled out behind him, if you walk on it then you get healed, a speed boost, and bonus health if you are at full already
I’ve gotta say despite how chaotic the game is, the readability in team fights is actually pretty surprising like their isn’t to much clutter in most fights
My favorite cap games are the ones where the two supports and maybe a dps see me and are constantly looking over their shoulder and the rest of the team doesn't even know I exist lol
Can you believe it, I actually got MVP with hulk one game on casual with over ten thousand damage(top in the team). I know, HOW?! I don't know, I'm just hitting the gamma burst left right and centre and I somehow killed everyone
Once I edited the setting to have his Shield up while holding down the button, it all clicked. - Cap is SO fun to use, running in/out of the fray, looking for Targets to pressure And the Ult ... Yes ... ASSEMBLE! 🛡️
I'm glad I'm not the only one with the taped down shift approach to this guy lol. Btw, his ult can be used to save him like a Winton ult cause of how fast the over health fills in.
The time to kill is so long with him. I know when I see Cap throw his shield in the movies, I envision Mantis getting hit and holding her hand out to check if its raining. A direct shield to the dome should stun the opponent at a minimum.
CaP is the best assassin in the game lol. As a strategist I've been dived harder by Cap than any damage dealer. I honestly think Cap's normal melee attack should just be him flinging his shield at people. Give him a bit of range. Watching this though... Man, healing is so strong in this game.
Flats: "I am not an avengers level threat" Ironic, given even Nick Fury in the Marvels Ultimate alliance game states that while Cap isn't as 'flashy' as most heroes, he's the one to always come out on top. So it's on brand is what i'm saying
if they drop the shield cooldown to maybe a half a sec or less, and buffed his damage a bit, i think cap would be fun AND viable. with the thor buff he’s absolutely viable
tanking in rivals is soooooo much more fun than in OW2 it's hands down night and day difference, healers are about on par with power level as i'd expect but at least you don't really have unkillable supports.... unlike OW2 where some can just survive everything. i mean if your a good loki you can never die but it's less him being able to sustain and more him fuckin with you through clone swaps and his stealth (which mind you i didn't realise it was an infinite stealth untill you use anything that isn't spawning another clone.)
his hero profile says his 3rd basic attack should ricochet but it doesn't it just gives it slight range... if it actually richochetted I feel people would like him more cause technically he'd be doing more damage.
Respect you still stay on Rivals even S14 in OW is out. Tried OW for one game and switched back to Rivals instantly. After all this years I burned out in OW and realy enjoy Rivals. Enjoy your time and have fun in your Job Flats!
I really think we could get a buff for the dive and shield bash maybe a damage or slight cooldown reduce it make it more usable for killing cause ngl it deals too little for 12 secs
I feel like Cap is the Wrecking Ball of this game. Doesnt do much burst but does barely enough damage to annoy a back line and cause some disruption. Perceived value is low but can SOMETIMES add value to the team lol
There’s only 1 character in Overwatch I never used. Wrecking ball. There’s only 1 character I’ve never used in marvels rivals. Captain America. And it’ll stay that way after this gameplay😂 never have I ever seen so much NOTHING happen. It’s like his shield is a pillow?!?
To a degree yes you can use abilities but nothing that involves a movement ability, otherwise that would make the stun pointless. But you can shield while CC’d and throw his shield.
I think it would be ok to get rid of shield cd. Realistically, you would only use flicker-blocking in isolated 1v1s against slow shooting heroes like hawkeye or widow. Hawkeye is already one of the most broken heroes, so would it be bad to add a sort of counterplay for that? Those worried about reflecting ults...have you ever tried reflecting an ult purposely? much less reflecting it back precisely? If anything, this change will allow Cap players to have more skill expression being able to isolate specific instances of damage in a fight with flicker-blocking. It would give him more up time for harassing enemy backline and instances when you have to play frontline, which is something that he is definitely lacking in.
See this is where I think the global heal would be nice, granted it should kick in after 5 or so seconds to keep players from running away and healing all the time (Iron Fist I'm looking at you) as it'd take a bit. Say like another 5 or more seconds. Though I also wonder if the dps healing debuff would be something to look at? Very early atm so everything is up in the air. That said, I do think tanks need a bit of love. Nothing crazy to start, just give em a few smaller buffs and go from there. Aside from Venom who I think is in a great state. Much easier to slowly buff and find the right amount of balance. Than to over buff and have to nerf them after.
I never thought I’d ever enjoy tank in a video game. I’ve always been someone who only likes support. I think it’s cause rivals isn’t that team focused and is much more deathmatchy.
Marvel Rivals’ newest support. Running to health pack
Best healer in the game. Never complains, always delivers
@@MaidenlessScrub Until they have to reload 😂
I'm over here basically doing the Genji meme every match. I've mostly figured out where all the health packs in most of the levels are now lmao
@@SomeKindaHero117 as a support main I thank you cause sometimes Iron Fist is whooping my ass
@@liqqidsurgegaming2970 As a fellow Support enjoyer, I feel your pain
I love the classic spiderman combo at the end. Chase a single target for 30 seconds, solo ult them failing to kill. C9. Its a true combo
i was cracking up just watching them chase him while he was running towards health packs!
Spiderman is this games reaper, I've had way too many jump into the middle of my whole team...or the enemy teams and ult, and just die immediately. It might not be ow but the ow players are the ones playing😂
I 100% think the 1 sec cooldown is because he reflects with his shield and flicker-blocking with that would be stupid overpowered, even by this game's standards.
I feel the same but those moments hurt especially since he's my main tank
They could fix that by having the reflection be on the cooldown but leave the shield able to turn on and off at will
At the very least it should be a .5 second cooldown. Rn cap has felt kinda clunky due to his shield cooldown and the 3 direction sprint
I just kinda want a little bit more damage. Like. Plus 5 or 10. Hell i would take plus 1@@techmo8397
It can even reflect ults!
I love how he screams Assemble! every time and does nothing 🤣
Tell me you dont know what his ult does without telling me you dont know what his ult does
He screams because he needs help lmao
His ult is basically were gonna get in your face and spam everything while running around. Everyone gets over health. Bonus, you get a cool trail effect.
It's rally I think
@@jinxx8456
His ult is literally Mantis ult but a whole lot worse
Cap is just a very bulky gnat. Bro is not a threat damage wise, but man is he annoying. Very fun
I've owned a couple Captain America pretty badly as Iron Fist lol
he is if he has a mic
@@Daniel-rc2buLove how you say “As Iron Fist” as if that’s a flex. Who CAN’T bro kill?
@Daniel-rc2bu Yeah Iron Fist is insane.
That is how I play him. I flank to the backline. Target supports try to kill. Then run like a bitch. Rinse repeat. As long as the Supports are distracted they can't heal. Teamed up with other flankers Cap is just fun.
This is footage of why I, as a Luna Snow main, just put the idol aura on him and let him be free whenever I see a Captain America.
Because that’s what heroes do
Oh right! I gotta start doing that more cause my buddies like Hulk and Cap 🤣
@@Jamestron1011 Thank you for this
FREEDOM!

Dude stalling as Cap is HILARIOUS like just run around, shield up, jiggle peak, somehow get a kill, and oop, ASSEMBLEEEEEEE

@@jacobfoxfires9647 Aka, pseudo taunt
@@jacobfoxfires9647 no wonder it felt so natural, I already played distraction in OW1 as bastion
I think it speaks a lot for the game that even though Captain America is weak, hes still a lot of fun to play. Good to see flats have fun.
Even get kills, solo or jumping someone, imo I think he needs a jumping buddy to make full use of him running around being a menace
Love to see flats smile once again😊
I have a main for each role, Cap is my vanguard main. Hes so much fun, not super flashy, but dependable. Which i think is very in character.
His kit has some obvious flaws, but I get the sense they're intentional to test how strong he'd turn out BUTTTTTT They gotta get rid of the Shield CD ASAP, maybe more shield HP or faster regen.

Same here, both in Rivals and OW X'D
Nothing like spreading freedom through your fists. And shield.
I'd say turn down the cooldown for his shield throw too. Faster health regen out of combat would be more in line with his super solider aspect.
removing the shield CD is stupid tho. Cap could flick guard ult every time then if they do that
Cap with Thor is doable
Mostly because of thor
Cap feels like if Brig was an actual tank. Melee unit, personal shield, ult that heals and buffs the team. He even has a shield bash.
And he gets the ranged throw ability
Caps ult heals the team as well as himself?
@johnjone965 he has a red carpet that gets rolled out behind him, if you walk on it then you get healed, a speed boost, and bonus health if you are at full already
I learned if you hold quick melee and sprint as cap, he does this weird half sprint punching thing that's bee really useful for chasing down enemies
Its kinda of impressive how little damage cap manages to do, i mean im just watching this video in a sort of.. wonderous bewilderment
Even FLATS spends half his time finding health packs.
I’ve gotta say despite how chaotic the game is, the readability in team fights is actually pretty surprising like their isn’t to much clutter in most fights
Assemble around Captain Run!
Cap may not pump out damage like some other tanks, but when it comes to being a pain in the ass, he could do it all day.
Is it a silly gameplay loop? Yes. Do I love it? Absolutely
My favorite cap games are the ones where the two supports and maybe a dps see me and are constantly looking over their shoulder and the rest of the team doesn't even know I exist lol
7:17 bro almost turned into the ed,edd, eddy outro
Can you believe it, I actually got MVP with hulk one game on casual with over ten thousand damage(top in the team). I know, HOW?! I don't know, I'm just hitting the gamma burst left right and centre and I somehow killed everyone
We're speedrunning health packs with this one.
LMAO that hulk chasing just to fall off the map 🤣 AMAZING.
Once I edited the setting to have his Shield up while holding down the button, it all clicked.
- Cap is SO fun to use, running in/out of the fray, looking for Targets to pressure
And the Ult ... Yes ... ASSEMBLE! 🛡️
I'm glad I'm not the only one with the taped down shift approach to this guy lol. Btw, his ult can be used to save him like a Winton ult cause of how fast the over health fills in.
My fav about cap is that he can deflect iron man’s ult back at him 😭 I did it on accident last night and it was hilarious
That gundam looking skin is so cool
I like that he smiles when he dies. He's having fun and not malding.
Flats in stacks: Comms, strategy, combos
Flats in solo queue: "GO GO GO GO GO GO GO GO"
Man, seeing Flats have fun and be happy playing a hero shooter is such a nice change of pace.
Wish the shield energy had changed to yellow or red with that skin
The healing vs damage fight is so chaotic... I absolutely love it
His kit could not be more underwhelming even if the devs tried 😂😂😂
The time to kill is so long with him. I know when I see Cap throw his shield in the movies, I envision Mantis getting hit and holding her hand out to check if its raining. A direct shield to the dome should stun the opponent at a minimum.
Flats should try an all dive team I feel like that would be absolutely hilarious
Been playing since launch and i must say it’s amazing they made all the melee characters so much fun to play.
19:26 bro's reenacting a Tom Cruise running sequence
“Not an Avengers level threat” literally playing an Avenger 😂
It's so nice to see Flats actually having fun again.
If wielding a pool noodle is fun then sure
It is fun though. You ever smacked someone with a pool noodle in a pool duel? Very fun time.
why did they think a modulated, pitched-down fart noise would be the perfect dramatic indicator that you're about to die
Cap gameplay: "On your left" "I can do this all day"
One lore question about Marvel, Captain Britannia is the brother/sister of Psylocke?
Besty Braddock’s mind was placed in Kwanon’s body. Best Braddock is Captain Britain’s sister, Kwanon is Psylocke
We need a compilation of all the" go go go go go go go"
CaP is the best assassin in the game lol. As a strategist I've been dived harder by Cap than any damage dealer. I honestly think Cap's normal melee attack should just be him flinging his shield at people. Give him a bit of range. Watching this though... Man, healing is so strong in this game.

Hey Flats can we get some tank how tos and such? Could be fun to watch. Also, "I'm not an Avengers level threat" is my favorite comment.
if they drop the shield cooldown to maybe a half a sec or less, and buffed his damage a bit, i think cap would be fun AND viable. with the thor buff he’s absolutely viable
tanking in rivals is soooooo much more fun than in OW2 it's hands down night and day difference, healers are about on par with power level as i'd expect but at least you don't really have unkillable supports.... unlike OW2 where some can just survive everything.
i mean if your a good loki you can never die but it's less him being able to sustain and more him fuckin with you through clone swaps and his stealth (which mind you i didn't realise it was an infinite stealth untill you use anything that isn't spawning another clone.)
My favorite thing to do is invis into the center od the enemy team and just launch paylocks ult and watch them just scream "SCATTER"
his hero profile says his 3rd basic attack should ricochet but it doesn't it just gives it slight range... if it actually richochetted I feel people would like him more cause technically he'd be doing more damage.
Can't believe they added Mumen Rider to this game
I wish his E was a shorter CD. Esp since throwing the shield leaves him completely open to attack.
I honestly think cap isn't a bad tank, played along side specific tanks and healers he's insane for taking agro
Now Im going to be hearing "go go go go go go go go..." in my head every time Im playing Cap 😂
slam needs a slight damage buff and shield throw needs a shorter cooldown
Every time i see Cap run in this game I hear the Six Million Dollar Man Bionic sound effect
AVENGERS......asemble
You can tell Flats mood base on Marvel Rivals and Overwatch there polar opposites.
Caps strongest move is pinging your team to get on objective
Imagine living with a 1 second CD on raising your left arm.
I've been playing nothing but Cap & Psylocke (mostly Cap, rarely get to DPS lmao) and it's so much fun
I feel like we should be able
To build charges with melees to use the throw ability and hold
Up to 4 max so it’s less random
Right on time, I was gonna ask for a video so I could see how you played Captain America
Decided to go tank yesterday for the first time, and holy heck is cap so much fun.
Bro this here is just HEALTH PACK HUNTER 😂
His ult is literally just old Brig rally. 😂
Cap is like if Brig and Wrecking Ball were one
Respect you still stay on Rivals even S14 in OW is out. Tried OW for one game and switched back to Rivals instantly. After all this years I burned out in OW and realy enjoy Rivals. Enjoy your time and have fun in your Job Flats!

I really think we could get a buff for the dive and shield bash maybe a damage or slight cooldown reduce it make it more usable for killing cause ngl it deals too little for 12 secs
That’s why I play Rocket, you spam healing nades to every. Single. Possible. Corner. and players like this pull the win out.
i have the same playstyle as flats lol… hulk, cap, and thor are my 3 favs too
I feel like Cap is the Wrecking Ball of this game. Doesnt do much burst but does barely enough damage to annoy a back line and cause some disruption. Perceived value is low but can SOMETIMES add value to the team lol
For sure. People compare Venom to wrecking ball but Cap is the one with the organic movement that makes Wrecking Ball powerful.
Watching someone else play and make fun of my main just as much as I do. Thanks for all the content!
if they made cap do a little more dmg and maybe had quicker cooldowns i think hed be perfect
I played cap and chased a damn jeff around half the map. The game was a wash but I was floored how I couldnt solo a support.. lol
His skin is literally Iron Might from MHA 😭
Could you imagine a fun tank in ow?
I can't even imagine having fun in overwatch
Captian is essentially Orissa if Orissa wasn't an obese horse who was stuck to one spot on the map
@@Blankseeker real
Ball is pretty fun, just not in 5v5
Junker queen is fun doomfist is fun there's a few fun tanks if u an avoid cc
The shield cooldown is annoying, I’d prefer if the shield straight up had a delay, because I see how flashing it would cause problems.
Hulk slam works if the rest of your team is actually doing something, half the time they aren't though lol
There’s only 1 character in Overwatch I never used. Wrecking ball.
There’s only 1 character I’ve never used in marvels rivals. Captain America.
And it’ll stay that way after this gameplay😂 never have I ever seen so much NOTHING happen. It’s like his shield is a pillow?!?
You can still move when squirrel girl cc you?
No. It locks you into place for a second
@josephdicus991 but you can still use skills? He was able to put up the cap shield
To a degree yes you can use abilities but nothing that involves a movement ability, otherwise that would make the stun pointless. But you can shield while CC’d and throw his shield.
Happy flats is back

I never thought I’d ever enjoy tank in a video game. I’ve always been someone who only likes support. I think it’s cause rivals isn’t that team focused and is much more deathmatchy.
If anyone thinks cap is a bit underwhelming y’all should get a friend to play Thor cause the buff makes him so crazy
