{{Quote|'''Look at [[Iron Man|you]]... pale reflections of your true selves! [[Captain America|You]] don't even remember what it is to be heroes anymore... but the Civil Warrior is here to remind you!'''|Civil Warrior|Civil Warrior (CWE-2-2)}}

'''Civil Warrior''' is a [[Tech]] [[List of Champions|Champion]]. Being a Tech Champion, he has a [[Class Bonus]] against [[Mutant]] Champions, but is weak to [[Cosmic]] Champions.

==Bio==
There are many rumors about the origins of the mysterious Civil Warrior... legend says he is a [[Captain America]] from an alternate Earth ravaged by the Civil War between his own army and [[Iron Man]]'s forces. On that world, the two heroes mortally wounded each other in the final battle of the war; [[Steve Rogers|Steve]] survived, but [[Tony Stark|Tony]] didn't. Riddled with guilt for the battle's destruction and the death of his former ally at his own hands, he assumed the mantle of the Civil Warrior. Adding Tony's ARC technology to his Captain America gear, he vowed to use his friend's legacy to stop this senseless conflict from ever happening again.

==Strengths and Weaknesses==
===Strengths===
* [[Deadpool|'''Deadpool''']]''', [[Wolverine]], [[Wolverine (X-23)]], [[Ultron]]'''
** Civil Warrior’s ability to keep frequent [[Heal Block]] effects active allows him to deny these Champions their much needed [[Regeneration]] effects.<ref name="Civil Warrior - Champion Spotlight">{{Forums|[http://community.kabam.com/forums/showthread.php?666515-Civil-Warrior-Champion-Spotlight Civil Warrior - Champion Spotlight]. Kabam Forums. June 29, 2016.}}</ref>

* '''[[Cyclops (New Xavier School)|Cyclops]] ([[Cyclops (Blue Team)|Both]]), [[Storm]]'''
** In addition to a class advantage, Civil Warrior’s ability to perform strong [[Power Drain]] effects denies these Champions their ability to perform their much needed special attacks. Additionally, his ability to reduce enemy Offensive Ability Accuracy means that these Champions cannot trigger their [[Armor Break]] and [[Stun]] effects.<ref name="Civil Warrior - Champion Spotlight" />

===Weaknesses===
* '''[[Iron Fist]], [[Spider-Man (Symbiote)]], [[Ms. Marvel (Kamala Khan)]]'''
** These Champions have a reliable way to strip away Civil Warrior’s Armor Up effects and do not rely on Offensive Ability Accuracy for their damage output as much as other Champions.<ref name="Civil Warrior - Champion Spotlight" />

==Recommended [[Mastery|Masteries]]==
* '''Parry'''
** One of Civil Warrior's greatest strengths is his ability to apply a Heal Block with his Heavy Attack. By triggering Parry, then going into a Heavy Attack, Civil Warrior can keep these short Heal Block effects active throughout the fight.<ref name="Civil Warrior - Champion Spotlight" />

* '''Collar Tech'''
** Civil Warrior's ability to block his opponent's incoming Special Damage, both from his Armor Up effects and his [[Signature Ability]], allows him a great deal of survivability against opponents that rely on Special Damage. Grabbing this Mastery further enhances this advantage by lowering the opponent's [[Power]] [[Power Gain|Gain]] and reducing the number of Special Attacks overall.<ref name="Civil Warrior - Champion Spotlight" />

==Trivia==
*In 2016, in order to celebrate {{Wikipedia|Captain America}}'s 75th anniversary, seven Marvel games created unique versions of Captain America. ''[[Marvel: Contest of Champions]]'' was one of the first to explore the idea of creating a unique version of Captain America while [[Kabam]] was in the midst of developing ''[[Cosmic Civil War]]'' and ''[[Cosmic Civil War: Endgame]]'', which led to the creation of Civil Warrior.<ref>{{Marvel|[http://marvel.com/news/video_games/26408/your_man_at_marvel_games_14 Your Man at Marvel Games #14]. Cavanaugh, Patrick. July 8, 2016.}}</ref>
**Other characters from this event include [[w:c:marvelpuzzlequest:Peggy Carter (Captain America)|Peggy Carter (Captain America)]] from ''Marvel Puzzle Quest'' and [[w:c:avengersalliance:Knight America|Knight America]] from ''Marvel: Avengers Alliance''.
*Civil Warrior is the second character to be created exclusively for ''Marvel: Contest of Champions''. The first was [[Guillotine]].<ref>{{Marvel|[http://marvel.com/news/video_games/25323/entering_marvel_contest_of_champions_guillotine Entering Marvel Contest of Champions: Guillotine]. Chabala, Ben.
