Introduction
Steven "Steve" Rogers, known by his alias of Captain America, is the titular character from his comic by Marvel. A rejected World War II soldier due to many health problems, he signed up for Project Rebirth and was given a super soldier serum. Captain America helped the allies win the war, but was lost at sea and frozen for decades. Now thawed, Captain America doesn't serve a particular government or organization, but rather fights for the timeless principles of freedom, equality, and justice of the American Dream.
In Marvel Vs. Capcom 2, Captain America is an all rounder with decent normals and specials that let him put out damage and traverse the screen while shielded. Captain America has a double jump, which allows him to move around a bit more freely than some characters. He has nice damage with his normals, which are pretty solid all things considered, and his specials aren't any slouch either. His Shield Slash is a fast projectile that has nice zoning, his Stars and Stripes is a lightning fast DP, and his trademark Charging Star lets him go through projectiles. His supers are also solid, with Hyper Charging Star being projectile invulnerable, Hyper Stars and Stripes being a good combo super, and the incredibly damaging Final Justice to cap it off.
The problem with Captain America is he has no real mixup, and his shield is both his biggest strength and greatest weakness. If you do not get your shield back after throwing it with Shield Slash, Captain America becomes one of the most dysfunctional characters in the game, with no real combos, most of his specials and supers losing their protective properties, and his damage and range going way down. Couple this with his poor movement, Captain America has a really hard time getting in and applying his pressure. However, he's a damage machine, so it's good to keep him in mind. If you like all rounders with an emphasis on zoning, or are a full-blooded American hero, then be at ease with Captain America.
