Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League Best Character to play?

First and foremost, I have to address the elephant in the room. I don’t feel these characters offer nearly enough differences to truly rank them against each other. All of them boil down to the same gameplay loop of shoot, reload, repeat.

However, this doesn’t mean you can’t find a character that you like a little more than the others. One thing I do suggest is to play as your chosen character more-or-less exclusively to level them up faster. This will be especially helpful if you’re playing online most of the time.

While I did say they all play similarly, I do think Captain Boomerang gets a slight lead over the others because of his power set. His melee attack actually has range, giving you a little more options during a firefight. Also, because of his speed force, you can move completely around the battlefield and stay one step ahead of foes.

King Shark is a viable choice if you’re looking for a tank. He can take some serious damage, and you can really just stand there and outlast most enemies. He can also get up close and personal without worrying too much about being fragile.

Harley Quinn

Harley Quinn is the opposite. She can’t take a lot of damage but instead focuses more on evading fire while staying up close with most enemies. Her traversal abilities don’t really translate well to combat, sadly. The momentum and positioning required to use her bat claw just don’t come up often in firefights.

Deadshot

Finally, Deadshot is more range-focused. He can cover a lot of ground with his jetpack, getting him into prime sniping locations. When playing Deadshot, you’ll do your best to assist from outside the main fray. At the end of the day, you can really just choose the character you most like playing as. One upside to the characters all feeling more or less the same is that none of them really fall behind the others either.

If you’re a huge fan of King Shark, this is your golden opportunity to spend plenty of time with him. Isn’t that one of the highlights of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League? Shining light on characters you never get to actually play as.

Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League is now available for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X.
