Notes
Deadshot – Suicide Squad Hitman is a highly sought after character — but it’s mostly because of how rare it’s been to obtain him. He does have an insanely powerful AoE attack that can deal extreme amounts of damage. There are still many similar characters that do his job just as well, though.
