There's no single best character — each one is built for a playstyle. Here's who fits which player, based on each character's strengths and weaknesses.
🧠 Who should you play?
| Character | Playstyle | Difficulty | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Strongest Hero | All-rounder, instant-kill awakening | Beginner | No reach or mobility; awakened moves are single-use |
| Hero Hunter | Grabs, burst damage, counter | Intermediate | Short range |
| Destructive Cyborg | Mid-range zoning, chip damage | Intermediate | Slow if attacks miss |
| Deadly Ninja | Hit-and-run mobility | Advanced | Few unblockables; armored moves interrupt him |
| Brutal Demon | Aggressive block-breaker | Intermediate | Slow M1s, long recovery |
| Blade Master | Combo extender, counter, crowd control | Advanced | Slow startups |
| Wild Psychic | Keep-away, grabs, multi-target | Intermediate | Average base damage |
| Martial Artist | Versatile neutral fighter, fast M1s | Advanced | Limited range on most moves |
| Tech Prodigy | Zoning pressure, AoE vs teamers | Intermediate | Slow startups |
💡 General tips
- Learn ragdoll cancel (Q while ragdolled) — it's the most important defensive tech.
- Use counters (Prey's Peril, Split Second Counter, Death Counter) on predictable opponents.
- Save single-use awakened moves (Death Counter, Atomic Slash, Conquest) for guaranteed hits.
- The Strongest Hero fills Awakening the fastest of all characters.
