Duel at the New Avengers Facility

"It's okay, he can't see me." "I can see you!" "He can see me."

- Ant-Man and Falcon

The Duel at New Avengers Facility was a confrontation between Ant-Man and Falcon.

Background
"This is a big jump from sugar cubes!"

- Ant-Man

Preparing to steal the Yellowjacket Suit from Darren Cross, Hank Pym, Hope van Dyne, and Scott Lang planned to visit one of the warehouses owned by Howard Stark to steal the Signal Decoy. Upon arriving, they discovered that after the Battle of Sokovia the warehouse was rebuilt, and became the New Avengers Facility.

Sam Wilson was one of the members recruited by Captain America to the Avengers; the New Avengers Facility is the Avengers' training facility.

Duel
"It's really important to me that Cap never finds out about this."

- Falcon

As Scott Lang arrived at the facility, he chastised Hank Pym for not disclosing that the warehouse was the New Avengers Facility, although this information came as news to Pym as well. As Lang stayed ant-sized, Falcon arrived, having detected an unknown signal on the perimeter. Lang returned to normal size and introduced himself, hoping to maybe get Falcon's help, only for Falcon to attempt to detain him for trespassing.

Lang shrank and maneuvered around the open ground, changing size while fighting Falcon and dodging his gunfire. Riding Ant-thony, Lang lured Falcon into the storage bay, successfully shrinking the device he wanted, and made his way into the wiring of the flight pack of the EXO-7 Falcon to ground Wilson. Lang escaped and Wilson radioed the base not to tell Captain America about his defeat to a shrinking man.

Aftermath
"Look. What happened last time was a..." "It was a great audition, but it'll... it'll never happen again."

- Scott Lang and Sam Wilson

Ant-Man used the Signal Decoy to help in his battle with Darren Cross. Word even got around to HYDRA about the benefits of shrinking technology against an Avenger.

Falcon was impressed with the skill demonstrated by Ant-Man and sought to have him among the Avengers. Luis, a friend of Scott Lang, told Lang that Falcon wanted him.

When Falcon and Captain America encountered the Winter Soldier, Falcon suggested calling Ant-Man for assistance. Prior to Clash of the Avengers, Lang apologized before Wilson for the duel. Wilson promised him it will not happen again.
