More than an annoyance, those movement issues sometimes limit Harley’s ability to effectively stay on the offensive. Again, she’s not completely helpless at a distance, but it can be surprisingly difficult to get the most out of her best abilities that demand aggressiveness. Her high-end potential is there (especially as you unlock more of her explosive skills), but her learning curve feels…off relative to the payoff when you compare Harley to the other playable characters.
3. Deadshot
Unlike Harley Quinn, Deadshot is remarkably easy to pick up and play. In fact, between his incredible combination of devastating melee abilities, long-range weapons, and access to a versatile traversal device (a jetpack), Deadshot initially appears to be the best character in the game.
However, the key word there is “initially.” For as diverse as Deadshot is at the beginning of the game, he doesn’t scale quite as well as some of the other characters once you start investing points into his abilities. A surprising amount of Deadshot’s late-game skills actually revolve around applying debuffs to enemies. Granted, those abilities are undeniably useful, especially if you’re playing Kill the Justice League with others. Unfortunately, they often don’t do enough for Deadshot himself who is sometimes relegated to picking off enemies at a distance while managing his jetpack cooldown and looking for critical strikes. It’s a viable (and potentially fun) way to play, but Deadshot never really acquires the AoE abilities or devastating damage skills that some other characters eventually gain access to.
Deadshot is invaluable in a group and incredibly easy to learn. As you spend some more time with the game, though, you may find yourself wistfully watching some of his teammates bring some slightly more unique and devastating talents to the party.
2. King Shark
Kill the Justice League is certainly not an RPG, but King Shark is clearly intended to be the game’s tank. He boasts the best natural defenses in the game, and he often finds himself at the frontlines of most fights using his melee strikes and other close-range weapons to tear through enemies.
Unlike Harley Quinn, though, King Shark benefits from both his tank-like regenerative and defensive abilities as well as his incredible traversal skills. In fact, King Shark’s traversal methods nearly earned him the top spot on this list. Unlike other Kill the Justice League characters, King Shark doesn’t need to rely on some kind of gadget to get around. He simply uses his incredible natural strength to jump high in the air and dash around while he’s there. There are still cooldowns associated with those abilities, but they offer King Shark some of the most reliable and versatile movement skills in the game. More importantly, King Shark can often turn those movement abilities into devastating opening strikes that include a powerful AoE attack.
