Whether you want to face Winter Soldier in your next Marvel Rivals fight or you want to be him, you've come to the right place; there's nothing more beneficial on the battlefield than knowing your character or enemy in depth. However, this isn't so simple, considering the amount of Heroes available on the roster.
Marvel Rivals offers a total of 33 Heroes to choose from, and each one of them has unique abilities that you can use to defeat your enemies. In this guide, we'll focus on Winter Soldier, his skills, and how they work. Let's get started!

Winter Soldier has low ammo capacity, and his damage output isn't particularly impressive, but he earns his spot in the higher-tier categories through his abilities for aggressive attacks and single-target lockdown. He is useful against Heroes like Spider-Man, who aim to kill all support characters because Winter Soldier can protect them.
Yes, when you choose him for the first time, you'll probably think that he's quite weak, but keep in mind that he's difficult to get used to, and most players simply need time to master him. Moreover, he can fit almost every team composition, as long as you already have someone with high DPS and better combos.
Marvel Rivals Winter Soldier Abilities
It's important to mention that every character in Marvel Rivals has their own strengths and weaknesses, so there's not one universal answer when it comes to which Hero is the best. That's why we encourage players to experiment with different fighters until they find the ones that fit them best.
In any case, if you already have your eyes on Winter Soldier, we're here to list all of his abilities and how they function, so you can win every time.
