This character is an excellent character imo. He
just seems to have so many things going for him:
-He is a leader (Avengers Assemble anyone?)
-He has average stats for a 6-drop (12/12)
-He has range
-He allows avengers attackers adjacent to him a
Bamf! Ability
-He gives adjacent defenders a +2/+2
What more could you want? Just slap this
character down on the field, slap a big target
on him and see the look on your opponent's face.
Oh yeah, they will definitely be gunning for
this character, but who can really blame them. I
definitely won't say this character is for every
deck, but he is made for just about any version
of Avengers deck I have seen.
Ratings:
MMA - 4.5/5.0 - This character is a great asset
for any Avengers deck.
GA - 4.5/5.0 - He isn't the best 6-drop in the
game, but he does come pretty close to it.
Limited - 3.5/5.0 - This card is still a great
character in this format, it is just doubtful
that there will be a lot of Avengers support
here.

Team Affiliation: Avengers
The team encourages pairing up or grouping (all
postioned next to each other, horizontally
and/or
vertically) and this Capt. gives a big bonus for
doing so.
Overall:
A very nice well-rounded character, and well
worth placing into your Avengers decks. Another
must-have card. The only drawback is that he'll
be the opponent's first target, so protect him
well.

This is perhaps one of the best all-purpose 6
drops in the game. Most of the time you look at
which drops are best defensive and which are
best offensive and choose your initiative
accordingly. 'Ol capi-tan can be used either
way. He is a solid 6 drop at 12/12 and can also
boost your guys on the defense by +2/+2.
Usually, on the defensive, this will move his
little range symbol right between his eyes as
the first to go down, so protect him as best
possible (in modern its much easier than in
golden) and your characters basically just
jumped a notch up the curve scale.
He is a very simple card, and as I said he helps
make the Avengers the best Modern team out there
right now....Well, at least til justice league
(I hope).
