Captain America (MCU) Runs the gauntlet

All Gear

Batman
Winter Soldier
Luke Cage
Angel Dust
Iron Man (Suit Case Armor)

Not sure about Angel Dust. Might stop there. If not he stops at IM. Clears the rest.

Depends on what qualifies as "all gear". Is it just for Steve, or for everyone? And all gear I assume is all the weapons they have used, not just standard, which would then include things like that magnetic grenade launcher for Winter Soldier. Steve could very well stop at Bucky if that's the case.

It's kind of depressing that Tony's on-the-fly suitcase armour, by feats, is stronger and more durable than his Civil War armour. The suitcase armour took repeated hits from whips that could easily split racecars in half and remained functional, and could send a town car skidding like 20 feet away with a casual kick.

Cap's only competition is prolly Angel Dust.. which he should outlast after a while..

What about the IM3 armours? 😂

It's a good job he had plenty of them in that film

IM3 armors were made of lego bricks painted to look like metal.

Those armours were also crap, but at least there was somewhat of a canonical excuse for it. They were basically untested prototypes that got rushed out in between Avengers and IM3, all while Tony was suffering from insomnia and PTSD. So, they were obviously not his best work.

Yeah never bought that explanation. He's mass producing these amazing state of the art suits but somehow forgets how to make them durable due to PTSD.

He was rolling them off the assembly line back to back with no real testing. They moved and shot repulsors. That was enough for him as they were basically something to keep him going.

Yeah keeping them durable would also keep him busy. Surely that would be the priority for a guy called "Iron" Man.

Well they were plenty durable. Just not against guys who were roughly IM level in strength and could belch lava.

Ya that was stupid. Made for a cool third act showdown scene tho!

I think the CW armor could also have a similar excuse, i.e., Pepper left him.

It wasn't even a kick, he just shoved it away with his foot. He also tanked getting tossed around by Vanko and casually tore out Vanko's suit's arc reactor and crushed it, when the suit was basically undamaged despite getting the limo slammed into it repeatedly.

It's not quite the same though. In IM3, He could barely have a conversation with a child without getting an anxiety attack.

Yep not only does Cap have the shield to block her hits, he is much faster, skilled, ruthless and smarter than Colossus to even leave such an opening.

Were they? Remember the Mark 42 getting smashed by a bus? Or was it a train?
