On the combined Marvel Contest of Champions tier list War Machine is D tier, 271st of the 295 characters ranked, from where 4 community tier lists put War Machine.
What War Machine does
Works as a quest-long support for Tech teams: he spends Persistent Charges before a fight on Armory Boosts that he or any other Tech 
Champion can use, such as two Cleanse Charges or bonus Energy Resistance. He earns more by winning, with an extra charge for each other #Hero on his team.
In the fight, Special 2 strips an Armor Up with a 30-second Armor Break, and dropping below 15% Health triggers 12 Furies and 12 Regenerations.
Profile
War Machine's full name is James Rhodes.
Background
James “Rhodey” Rhodes, decorated U. S. Air Force pilot and longtime ally of Tony Stark, combats evil and injustice as the armored War Machine.
True to his codename, Rhodes’ armor delivers heavy metal power via its wrist-mounted machine guns and shoulder-mounted artillery cannon.
