Injustice 2: 10 Most Complex Characters You Must Master

6. Red Hood

Injustice 2 Red Hood
NetherRealm

Although his tiny movelist might make you think NetherRealm dropped the ball when bringing Jason Todd into the fold, like Wonder Woman, the beauty of this lets you memorise every last one of his attacks.

With those in mind, Todd's moveset just flows once you get it down. His electro-toggle imbues both pistols with extra damage and electricity, factoring into a great many of his optional meter burns that end combos with rapid-fire bullet flurries.

Like Deadshot, these projectiles can keep an opponent elevated for longer too, giving you a second of breathing room to think on where you're going to take the fight next. Lastly, Red Hood has a great mix of low and high attacks, a backward charging kick that gets him out the way of danger, some evasive dives (that can be meter burned to shoot as you go) and a Supermove that'll finish any bout in style.

Red Hood is a somewhat divisive character, given his penchant for whining and being rather one-note in terms of motivation, but for fans, this is the best in-game incarnation yet.
