Avengers: Endgame - Every Character Ranked Worst To Best

22. Black Panther

Thanks to the fact that Black Panther had the honour leading the charge of the heroes back through Doctor Strange's portals, he holds a special place in the ranking of the returning Infinity War characters.

He was also fairly active in the final battle, first shouting his Wakandan "yibambe" war chant (it means hold in Xhosa - the language used as the basis for Wakandan) and then running in. And he gets an opportunity to show off the sonic technology built into his suit when he runs with the Gauntlet to protect it and uses all of the Chitauri's shots against them with a shockwave.

He's only in it for a little while, but he's still VERY cool.

21. Gamora

Despite dying in Infinity War, Gamora returned to the fray thanks to time travel that brought her to 2023 along with her father, the bad Nebula and the captive Nebula from 2023. Without her freeing the other Nebula, the heroes would have lost as the bad Nebula was on the verge of executing Hawkeye and taking the Gauntlet.

She gets some battle action, but her best moment comes in her interaction with Star-Lord, who greets her with love and receives two knees to the groin for his efforts. While she disappears at the end of the movie mysteriously, she's clearly going to be the McGuffin in Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 3. And for that reason - and others - it's great to have her back.
