Captain America

Captamericaface.jpg

In World War II, patriotic solider, Steve Rogers, recipient of the "Super Soldier Serum", became the living symbol of freedom, Captain America. Left for dead while frozen in ice, the star-spangled hero with an indestructible shield awoke years later to continue his never-ending battle for liberty.

In a nutshell

Captain America is a pretty straightforward character. His Shield Slash is strong for keeping away characters without strong projectiles of their own, or sometimes pressuring opponents from mid range. Captain can also use his Charging Star to zip through some projectiles and inflict damage. His Cartwheel can tumble through opponents, causing crossups with the right assists, but is completely vulnerable to all attacks, shots, and throws. He doesn't have a lot of moves or flashy combos. This makes him pretty easy to pick up and play, but limits his versatility. If a simple, brute force character with a few ranged options sounds like it is for you, give the Captain a try.
