Thor and other heroes to duo with Captain America in Marvel Rivals

1) Thor

Thor is the only character with whom Captain America can do a Team-Up ability named Charged Aiges. Here's what its in-game description reads:

"Thor infuses Thorforce into Storm and Captain America, granting them an electrifying enhancement. With an electrifying enhancement, Storm can unleash a lightning barrage. With an electrifying enhancement, Captain America gains a Movement Boost, and his shield is imbued with thunder power, electrocuting nearby enemies."

Both of them have great shields, and together, they can protect the whole squad with ease. You can't push aggressively with Thor as he is one of the slowest heroes in the game.

2) Black Widow

Though some might think this combination does not make sense at all, the duo of Black Widow and Captain America in Marvel Rivals is quite strong. The interesting combo of long and close range, combined with high-damage weapons, could easily handle multiple opponents with ease.

Do note that Black Widow is one of the most difficult characters to master in the game, so the person who picks it as a duo partner must have a good knowledge of her movement mechanics.

3) The Punisher

The Punisher and Captain America in Marvel Rivals form a nearly perfect duo, supporting each other in every way possible. While Punisher uses his Culling Turret, you can provide him the shield necessary. This makes it very difficult for opponents to push forward.

Both characters are quite easy to learn and have straightforward mechanics.

4) Winter Soldier

Similar to The Punisher, Winter Soldier has high DPS weapons that can hold opponents for quite a long time if he is provided good support by Captain America. Furthermore, his ultimate ability Kraken Impact nearly guarantees multiple eliminations in combination with Captain America's Freedom Charge in a small area.

Do note that Winter Soldier is a difficult character to master and requires good aim.

5) Doctor Strange

Breaking the cover of Doctor Strange and Captain America in Marvel Rivals without a lurking Duelist is not so likely. A combination of Captain America's Living Legend and Dr Strange's Maelstorm Of Madness creates one of the strongest shields to hold the capture point.

Do not try to play aggressively, as both are slow characters who are meant to play as a strong support duo in the game.

That's all the best heroes to duo with Captain America in Marvel Rivals as of now. It is to be noted that it's a relatively new game and the meta will keep changing, so this list is subject to change.
