 Freddie | + Ultimate gives him a second chance at life. + His gadgets and clones are great at confusing enemies. + Can tether and disrupt enemies while having great mobility. |
 Ling Bo | + Incredible crowd control. + Powerful mobility abilities that lets her reposition quickly. + Movement buff for the whole team makes her a great utility pick. |
 Sypher | + The best mobility and repositioning capability in the game with her teleport. + Can hack enemies to gain intel on armor types. + Her ultimate can disable enemy gadgets making team fights a lot easier. - Your success with her can depend on how good your game sense and repositioning skills are. |
A Tier - Powerful Characters
| Character | Pros and Cons |
|---|---|
 Kui Do | + Perfect for aggressive playstyles that want a high mobility character. + High-pressure striker who can always find an angle to flank enemies. - His ultimate is a bit too easy to shut down from a distance. |
 Nightwatch | + High damage abilities and ultimate, while also being easy to play. + Some of the best suppressive firepower in the game that can pin enemy teams down. - Lacks mobility options compared to other high-tier characters. - Can struggle in fights with lots of vertical angles. |
 Beau | + His grenades and ultimate deal very high damage. + Excellent at setting up ambushes and surprising enemies. - Requires very good map awareness and game sense to make good use of. |
 Maggie | + High mobility quickstriker who can set up ambushes. + Her jetpack lets her reposition and gain terrain advantage very easily. - Can be punished heavily during her long cooldown windows. |
B Tier - Situationally Useful in Certain Comps
| Character | Pros and Cons |
|---|---|
 Lucinda | + Jack of all trades. + Well-balanced kit. - Does not excel enough in any one department. |
 Maychelle | + Extremely beginner-friendly. + Her abilities bring great sustainability for her and the whole team. - Lacking in good damage options and mobility. |
 Momoi | + Good utility that can save your team situationally with her shields and Dragon. - Her shield feels a bit too weak and doesn't last long enough to make a major impact e.g. Revive. - Recent nerfs to her dragon cause her to take damage, making her feel much weaker. |
 Ceanna | + Dedicated healer who can support, heal, and revive teammates from a distance. - Her cooldowns are too high and hold her back during fast-paced and rapid engagements. |
C Tier - Not Keeping Up With The Meta
| Character | Pros and Cons |
|---|---|
 Captain | + Provided great defense and utility for your team with his shields when ambushed. - Lack of mobility - Slow playstyle, which isn't favored in the current meta. |
 Yong | + Powerful recon abilities. + Can track and blind enemies. - Playstyle doesn't fit the fast-paced meta, which favors direct engagements. |
 Sunil | + Has some decent utility, buffs, and debuff cleansing for your team. - Takes too long to set up, and cooldowns hold him back in fast-paced fights. |
 Ducksyde | + Good disengagement and engagement tools with his roll ability. + Ultimate provides a pretty decent shield. - Does not excel in any particular area. Middling stats all around. |
D Tier - Just Bad
| Character | Pros and Cons |
|---|---|
 MKR | - His rockets force him to engage in close to mid-range combat - His utility abilities aren't practical or especially useful. |
