    I love playing as robin for the predator mode in city because the thugs start by insulting you, joking about "batman's little helper" and the like and then panicking in terrified state with excuses like "i'm sorry i though you were a joke"
    Most satisfying final takedowns ever

And with a bike you won’t have all the tools the batmobile does the only way for they’ll characters to play would be to deal with the situation like Arkham City you still have to worry about dlc besides why in the world would you be able to free roam as batgirl in Arkham knights map it’d make no sense same goes for Azriel and Queen

    I must say, Deathstroke might be my favorite purely from an aesthetic perspective. And just the fact that it was freaking Deathstroke! Blew my teenage mind. I can't remember if he was very different at all gameplaywise. I remember he had like c4 instead of gel, projectiles from his staff instead of batarangs, and he could rip off grates in one go. Of course fewer gadgets and worse than batman gameplaywise but visually he was awesome. The staff combat looked really good to me, although I wish you could use the sword. Being able to switch between the two and having them act differently would have been a really unique gameplay feature. But seeing him flip into the air and firing a barrage of projectiles in an arc like that is still one of the coolest combat animations in the series for me.

    Harley feels the same way somewhat, i also dont like how she is kicking nighwings butt in her DLC but batman can always incapacitate her in seconds.

    Robin and nightwing are my favorite because I like that I'm using new skills in their own way that feels true to the characters and I have something to say about batgirl the reason both batgirl and catwoman are faster and quick is because they don't have as much muscle then batman like yeah he is quick and strong but when you play other characters like robin and nightwing and the girls you move quicker batman is big and you can't move that quick when your that big that's why nightwing is lean and is muscular but in a lean way because he can be able to do move circus skills and he's more flexible and you can't be very quick and flexible with all that muscle on you.

    Tbh I really liked Deathstroke and Red Hood.
    Deathstroke: It was cool in predator mode to have a staff and knock out the thugs. It was nice because it felt like a mixture between Robin and Batman
    Red Hood: I mean do I really have to explain? Who wouldn’t want to go around shooting thugs and sniping them? The Arkham Knight skin was cool but when I played predator maps I heard Arkham Knight speaking and always thought (your literally giving away information about yourself) funny, but weird.
    azrael however was literally a copy and paste batman who wouldn’t speak in maps.

    My rankings so far are for combat excluding Batman from Arkham Knight,which is the best
    1. RED HOOD,the power and brutality in his moves are satisfying as hell. Tip:utilize the pick up downed enemy lead into beatdown move with Red Hood.
    2. Robin. The Bullet shield and staff make his combat unique yet satisfying to master
    3. Azrael,a much more simplified Batman with less gadgets
    4. Nightwing. His mobility,agility,speed and weapons mixed with the strength of Batman
    5.Batgirl, a faster more fluid feeling Batman with hard combat
    6. Catwoman,her speed is unmatched in all games
    7. Harley Quinn,her bat Stun beatdown is so goddamn good to use
    8. Deathstroke,didn't use him enough,wish he used his sword.
    9. Joker,honestly,if they updated him with new moves and some more gadgets into Arkham Knight,he would be awesome to play as.

  • @Jonathan-A.C.
    @Jonathan-A.C. 3 года назад

    Tbh, I don’t think that Azrael should count as a person on this list since it’s essentially just a somewhat watered down clone of Batman. Really at that point, it’s just Batman, and since Batman isn’t on the list, I don’t think Azrael should be here.
    Given that, my list would probably be:
    Catwoman
    Red Hood
    Robin/Deathstroke (there are differences in gadgets and some attacks, but they are similar enough to be the same here)
    Vigilante Bruce
    Nightwing
    Catwoman is fun as shit in combat, but damn is she annoying to play in Predator sometimes.
    Red Hood is probably the most unique in many respective because of the power of his guns, but otherwise I just like the way he moves around and flips.
    Robin is slow, but all of his attacks look gorgeous and his Predator is solid so he’d have to be 3.
    Vigilante Bruce is overall the fastest in the Series so for someone who can input attacks very quickly, it is beyond incredible.
    Nightwing because his attacks are spectacular, his movement is great, his Predator is mixed, and he’s my favorite character throughout the Series to play, and my second favorite character of all time

It's kinda of a pattern when my top characters are batman, Catwoman, Nightwing, Batgirl and red hood LOL. 4/5 of them are the fastest characters in the game. So it's just my preference of style

    Unpopular opinion. I HATE ROBIN. Not as a character but as a playable one. His gadgets are clunky and I can’t really seem to get his rhythm. Also his combos are useless him not having the rec gun is a big bummer for me. He also doesn’t have disarm and destroy. That’s why I hate him.

  • @kidanarchy2105
    @kidanarchy2105 2 года назад

    I think I realize watching this that you guys like the combat a lot more than stealth, as with the exception of Red Hood and Robin, all these characters suck imo. Asriel and Batgirl's arsenals are just worse versions of Bruce's, and Catwoman's stealth in any map not imported from City was nightmarish. But it doesn't mean you're wrong, just different priorities. My list would be as follows
    5. Robin: The bullet proof shield and zip kick aren't much, but they present unique opportunities absent from Batman's arsenal that are pretty fun.
    4. Nightwing: While his arsenal of Wingdings and Escrimna sticks is mostly just batarang substitutes, the knockout darts add a fun dimension with the possibility of an instant takedown, but the need for a difficult headshot to accomplish it.
    3. Bruce Wayne: The catrops are slightly less useless here, as he can land much quicker than Catwoman. He also makes a much cleaner getaway.
    2. Deathstroke: His stun gun as well as the remote claw were awesome. He had a few other gadgets that generally just made stealth pretty fun.
    1. Red Hood: The guns make stealth so much more fun with the risk reward of Insta kill vs alerting basically everyone to your position.

  • @bl4ckw1ngz64
    @bl4ckw1ngz64 4 года назад

    1. Azrael being a Batman clone was whatever ngl. I remember people being mad about it and I was like "you know where he shows up in the story right? training to be Batman's replacement and you want the combat to be pretty similar so you're not thrown off". Also one unique thing he does w/ Batman's gadgets is spray a cross w/ the explosive gel. I always was amused by that
    2. Red Hood's potential as a playable character in challenge maps is wasted b/c of maps not being designed for him. I.e. the bulletproof troops from the second stage of his story DLC are an extremely good counter to bullet spam without being frustrating like shield enemies who you can't even punch out
    3. Catwoman got gibbed in Arkham Knight. Where is her double takedowns? Where is her whip disarm?
    4. Robin's ok. I hate that you can't plant his snap flash on downed enemies in Knight and that he lost his smoke pellet also in that game. Him getting a RHC tho in Flip of a Coin is fucking awesome
    5. Batgirl is the best designed of the three female characters. She's a Batman with less gadgets but she definitely quick and powerful. One good thing about Batgirl in challenge maps is that she earned some of Batman's abilities like disarm and destroy

    6. Catwoman. Only 3 gadgets 2 of which are remotely useful. Fun to play as her but she kinda gets boring fast for me after awhile.
    7. Azrael. As others mentioned he's basically a Batman skin but he's got a unique look to him that I like and would have been better to not just be a Batman clone
    8. Harley. The insanity thing is a neat mechanic but it doesn't make sense she can suddenly fight so well in that but then get her ass handed to her in story mode.
    9. Joker. I mean it seemed good in theory but 2 of his gadgets for predator mode are a 1 time only use. The googles while acting as a "detective mode" you stand still. His combat is way too wacky for my tastes and again he's not really much of a fighter either. Just hard to get into playing as him without getting tiresome.
    The weird mind thing where Batman forces him out of his mind is neat tho
