PocketRivals tips

How to use this hero

Captain America: Anchor space first, then spend cooldowns to start or stop a fight when your team can follow.

Team synergy

Frontline partner: Pair with a second Vanguard or a durable Duelist who can hold space when you reset.
Damage plan: Bring at least one ranged Duelist so your team can pressure before you walk in.
Support pairing: Two Strategists who can actually see you make your engages much safer.

Priority

1Use shield, mitigation, or control to claim space before chasing eliminations.
2Save one defensive cooldown for leaving the fight.
3Commit only after your damage players are looking at the same target.

Avoid: Do not spend every cooldown crossing empty space. Arrive with at least one tool left.
