The group began to drift apart as its members focused on individual pursuits. The increasingly part-time team fought foes such as Effex, the Elements of Doom, and AIM alongside allies such as the young Kree super-mutant Ultra Girl, the Thunderbolts, and the Avengers (who recruited Firestar and Justice), until Night Thrasher moved to Seattle on a personal mission and formally disbanded the Warriors. Unwilling to give up on the team, Speedball reorganized the group alongside Nova, Namorita, Turbo and new recruits Aegis and Bolt, funded by Namorita's cousin Namor. When an ongoing conflict with arms dealer Joe Silvermane led to the destruction of the Crash Pad, Turbo's new boyfriend Dalton Beck helped the team set up shop in a city firehouse; however, Beck was soon exposed as Silvermane's super-agent Firestrike, though a repentant Dalton helped cripple Silvermane's operation before entering the witness protection program. Despite the return of Night Thrasher, the group has since lapsed into a semi-active state again. Turbo is determined to retire from heroics, Bolt apparently died, and only a few Warriors such as Night Thrasher, Nova, Speedball and Namorita are frequent participants in the group. But the team stands ready for action when needed, whether against minor threats like the super-delinquent Southpaw or major menaces like the hordes of Hydra. The Warriors continue to fight for the better future they seek to embody.
