Here are the best characters in Suicide Squad ordered from best to worst
Rocksteady Studios have recently released their new game, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. It was released on January 29 for people who got the deluxe edition. The game is an action shooter developed by the same studio that made the Batman: Arkham series. It is a follow-up of the story after the events of Batman: Arkham Knight (2015). It is based on the team called the Suicide Squad and features many other characters from the DC Comics Universe. There are four characters, all of which can be played by a squad of four people. Each of the characters has their traits and abilities, all of which can be upgraded. The uniqueness of the characters and their playstyles have led to a debate among players about which character is the best and what are their traits.
Therefore we have decided to show you all four of the characters ordered from best to worst in Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League.

Four characters can be selected by the players and each has their abilities and gear. They are mentioned below:
- Harley Quinn
- Deadshot
- Captain Boomerang
- King Shark
Therefore it is wise to have an idea about how each character works and their playstyles that you will have to adjust to. This can be better understood from the list that we have made that orders the characters from best to worst. We have also added a short description of why these characters are placed in their respective spots and how their abilities work.
1. Captain Boomerang
Despite having characters like Harley Quinn and Deadshot alongside him, Captain Boomerang has shown the potential to be the best character in the game. He has great traversal abilities and is a very mobile character. Considering that the game is set in an open world, Captain Boomerang’s movement allows him to have an advantage in traversing the map.

Other characters like King Shark have less mobility and are much harder to control, which stands as a weakness in the open world. Besides, the perks that other characters have aren’t very effective compared to Captain Boomerang. Other than that he has very simplistic controls and focuses on close-ranged combat, making him much easier for beginners to get a hang of. Having a shotgun as a primary weapon adds to the potential for short-range damage.
2. Deadshot
Deadshot is another close second. His abilities are also quite easy to get a grasp of. He is a good option for players who feel overwhelmed by all the gears and traits in the game. Although his movement is not as good compared to Captain Boomerang, the jetpack is a good complement to his abilities as a sniper.

If you’re going to pick Deadshot, it is wise to keep your distance from the fight and hover above using the jetpack, while picking off enemies with high-powered rifles. Flying up to roofs and providing cover for the rest of your team are also good options. In case you get caught in a close-range fight, Deadshot’s melee abilities can also be quite handy as not only can he auto-reload his guns with an attack but also he can switch between his melee and ranged weapons quite fast.
3. King Shark
King Shark mainly focuses on acting as a tank. He is a bullet sponge who can take tons of damage as the rest of the team plays around him. He also has expertise on heavy weapons, allowing him to deal massive hits on enemies as well. Despite having increased armor and health points, King Shark has a major disadvantage compared to the other characters. His movement is quite clunky.

Due to his movement debuff, players may need some time to get used to playing as King Shark. Even though he can deal lots of damage to his enemies, tanks also depend on their teammates to take out their opponents while they keep them distracted. Therefore an aspect of teamplay comes in while playing this character. Even though it may seem daunting in the beginning, King Shark can be quite fun after getting through his learning curve.
4. Harley Quinn
Despite being, probably the most well-known character in the roster, Haley Quinn isn’t that very pleasant to play as. One of the main reasons for this is that her movement tends to be very unpredictable and hard to master. She has both close and medium-ranged abilities that work with her swinging. She can deal a lot of damage if played well, her grenades and other firearms can be very effective from a distance and later she can jump in a fight with strong melee attacks.

However, mastering her can be quite difficult as her movement has a more steep learning curve. Most players, especially in the beginning may find it hard to understand or predict her movement, but once mastered anyone can do some serious damage as playing has her.
